Experience in 3DS Max and Houdini is re quired as well as experience building tools and OTLs/HDAs for Houdini.

Must have knowledge of Alembic and VDB read/write implementations in Max and Houdini, Python, PyQt, HScript, VEX and be comfortable working in a Windows environment.

Experience with Vray, MaxScript and with writing database savvy tools is a plus.

Minimum of 3 years experience required.
