3D Designer

Social Description

IcyBox is looking for a 3D Designer to bring our products and unboxing moments to life through 3D modeling, animation, and motion design. This is a hands‑on creative role for someone who can take a watch or mystery box concept from raw model to polished, animated visual.

Our Mission

Everyone remembers the feeling of opening something they didn't expect to love at first but ended up wearing everyday. At IcyBox, we’re building on that feeling and turning the thrill of the unknown into a business that scales. What started as a fast-moving watch commerce and mystery box company is becoming something bigger: a durable consumer brand that people trust, return to, and talk about. We move quickly, we sweat the details, and we’re not afraid to build the plane while flying it. If you want to be close to the center of a company still writing its own playbook, this is that kind of place.

Our Values

Move Fast, Build Right: Speed matters, but so does the thing you’re building. We’d rather ship today and fix tomorrow than sit on something perfect and late.

Own the Gap: When nobody owns it, that’s exactly where we lean in. Ambiguity isn’t an excuse to wait, it’s an invitation to lead.

Clarity Is a Gift: Messy information helps no one. We turn noise into options, options into decisions, and decisions into action.

Trust Over Title: Influence here comes from follow-through, not org-chart position. The best ideas win regardless of who’s in the room.

Say the Real Thing: Hard conversations happen early and directly, because that’s what actually moves things forward.

Do the Unglamorous Work: From a spreadsheet to a vendor call to a hiring process to a board memo, no task is beneath getting the company where it needs to go.

About the Role
We’re 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.

Software You’ll Use

Blender

Rive

Photoshop

What You’ll Do

Blender

— 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

Rive

— 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

Photoshop

— Handle basic photo editing and retouching to support 3D renders and marketing assets

What We’re Looking For

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 Have

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
