Job Description :

Freelance RenderMan Plugin Developer

Contract – 2 to 3 months | Remote (EU / UK time zones preferred)

We’re supporting a cutting-edge immersive media company on the development of a new RenderMan plugin that will integrate into a proprietary volumetric imaging system. This is a short-term freelance role with the opportunity to contribute to a technically ambitious product used in high-end film and virtual production.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for building a custom plugin using the RenderMan SDK, enabling support for a volumetric video format that integrates with standard VFX rendering workflows. The plugin will sit within the studio’s rendering pipeline alongside existing integrations with Arnold, V-Ray, and MoonRay.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Developing a plugin using the RenderMan C++ SDK
  • Working on low-level rendering extensions (e.g. camera, output drivers, filters)
  • Collaborating with a technical team to ensure compatibility with their existing volumetric pipeline
  • Supporting testing and potential debugging if needed

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience developing with the RenderMan SDK (not just using RenderMan for shading / lighting)
  • Comfortable creating plugins or extensions such as :
  • Geometry / shading modules
  • Strong programming skills in C++
  • Ideally some Python scripting ability
  • Up-to-date knowledge of modern RenderMan versions (not legacy only)
  • Comfortable working independently on focused deliverables
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience with other render engines (e.g. Arnold, V-Ray, MoonRay)
  • Familiarity with Houdini or Maya rendering workflows
  • Background in VFX, animation, or real-time graphics pipelines
  • Details

  • Duration : 2–3 months
  • Start date : ASAP or within 4 weeks
  • J-18808-Ljbffr
