Rotor’s Master Asset Team (MAT) specialises in CAD conversion, predominantly working on vehicles in Maya and is the central hub for all incoming assets. It’s all about technical accuracy and precision!
As an MAT Technical Artist you will set up our ‘spec accurate’ master assets for both vehicles and accessories, which contain multiple configurations of geometry and materials. Our MAT process is fundamental to converting and translating heavy CAD files into usable files within the Rotor rendering system and real time requirements.
You will utilise all your fantastic skills for CAD optimisation using various disciplines such as modelling, surfacing, rigging, lighting, and compositing in order to produce incredible spec accurate assets for image generation by our other extremely talented departments!

1. Accurately interpret and translate vehicle specifications from our client reference materials and product documentation;
2. Assembly & optimisation of CAD geometry;
3. Application and assignments of paints and materials across various vehicle grades;
