Creating new user interfaces and tools for artists and technical directors to author, edit, access, and inspect shot and asset content
Adopting new external DCC’s and integrating them into our pipeline
Writing new tools and plugins into 3rd party apps for rough to fine story development
Devising artist dashboards for consolidating and managing tasks, encouraging collaboration and visibility into the characters, environments, story and the overall film making process

Extensive experience designing APIs from scratch as well as designing APIs that extend existing frameworks.
Ability to collaborate with team members across different disciplines including directly interfacing with stakeholders to understand requirements
Experience guiding cross disciplinary teams of engineers over open ended technical problem domains.
Demonstrated ability to lead development from architectural design to implementation, and through adoption, helping build adoptions plans and strategies with incremental integration milestones through a collaboration with key stakeholders.
Exemplary communication, teamwork and problem solving skills, balancing the timeliness of solutions with their sustainability. Able to collaborate with team and leadership to prioritize competing demands based on business value.
