About The Position

IcyBox is looking for a 3D Designer to own the visual life of our products — from hard-surface models of watches and mystery boxes to the animated moments that make an unboxing feel exciting. You'll work across Blender, Rive, and Photoshop to take concepts from raw geometry to finished, animated visuals used across product pages, marketing, and app experiences.

Requirements

• Strong hard-surface modeling skills in Blender; organic modeling/sculpting experience is a plus
• Solid animation fundamentals, comfortable in both 2D and 3D
• Practical knowledge of UV unwrapping and texturing — you know when a texture looks wrong and how to fix it
• Working knowledge of lighting setups (studio and environmental) in a 3D pipeline
• Comfort with Rive's timeline/trigger system and vector creation
• Basic Photoshop proficiency for photo editing and touch-ups
• A portfolio or reel demonstrating hard-surface modeling and animation work

Nice To Haves

• Experience at a high-growth startup or consumer/e-commerce company
• Prior work modeling or animating watches, jewelry, electronics, or other small high-detail consumer products
• Experience creating unboxing-style or reveal-style animations — directly relevant to IcyBox's mystery box format
• Organic modeling/sculpting skills beyond hard-surface work
• Familiarity with optimizing 3D assets for web or in-app use, where performance constraints matter

Responsibilities

• Build high-quality hard-surface models (watches, boxes, packaging, product details); organic modeling and sculpting is a plus
• Animate objects with a strong grasp of animation principles across both 2D and 3D
• Handle UVs end-to-end: unwrapping, texturing, and making sure textures read correctly on final renders
• Set up studio and environmental lighting to get renders looking clean and true to product
• Build animations using Rive's timeline system, including linking multiple timelines together with triggers
• Create and animate vector objects for use in-app and across marketing
• Handle basic photo editing and retouching to support 3D renders and marketing assets
