About the role

Genesis AI is building Genesis World, a unified multi-physics simulation engine paired with Nyx, our in-house path traced photorealistic renderer that powers the next generation of robotics and embodied AI. We are looking for a Senior Prop Artist to model, sculpt, and texture the physical objects and digital twins that populate our simulated worlds. This craft-heavy role focuses on game-caliber art skills applied to real-time, production assets that must be accurate in scale, materials, and geometry to support sim-to-real training.

Responsibilities

  • Create photoreal props for digital twins end-to-end: modeling, high-poly sculpting, retopology, UVs, and PBR texturing.
  • Recreate real-world objects from reference and photogrammetry, matching real dimensions, materials, and wear.
  • Clean up, retopologize, and optimize scanned and existing assets to meet real-time budgets without losing fidelity.
  • Author assets to strict poly, texture, and memory budgets suited to GPU-accelerated real-time rendering.
  • Partner with rendering and physics engineers to make sure assets are visually and physically correct in-engine.
  • Maintain consistency, naming, and quality standards across a growing library of props.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years as a prop / hard-surface / environment artist, with shipped work built under AAA real-time engine constraints (games, not VFX).
  • Strong modeling skills in Maya and/or Blender and sculpting expertise in ZBrush.
  • Mastery of PBR texturing in Substance (Painter/Designer).
  • Photogrammetry and scan cleanup experience; comfortable turning raw scans into production-ready assets.
  • Deep understanding of real-time constraints: poly budgets, LODs, texture memory, and optimization tradeoffs.
  • A sharp eye for accuracy, scale, and material fidelity, and the discipline to hit them consistently.
