Creative WebGL Developer (Three.js / React Three Fiber / React)

Build web experiences people can’t stop sharing.

We’re partnering with a well-known, well-trusted major Media company at the intersection of technology, storytelling, and global brand campaigns—and we’re hiring a Creative WebGL Developer to turn bold concepts into immersive, real-time work on the modern web.

This isn’t product maintenance. It’s high-impact, visually led campaign work—the kind that gets seen (and felt) by millions.

If you treat the browser like a canvas (not just a container) and you care about craft, performance, and wow-factor, you’ll feel at home here.

What you’ll be doing

• Build immersive, real-time WebGL moments for global campaign launches
• Take ideas from concept to launch: prototype, iterate, ship—without losing the magic
• Create scroll-driven interactive storytelling that feels smooth, cinematic, and intentional
• Partner day-to-day with designers, motion artists, and creative technologists
• Make ambitious 3D run beautifully: optimize scenes, assets, and pipelines for desktop + mobile
• Experiment with animation, shaders, lighting, and real-time rendering to push the work further

Tech you’ll use

• Next.js (preferred) or Astro for performance-first builds
• Three.js + React Three Fiber (+ @react-three/drei)
• GSAP (ScrollTrigger is a strong plus)
• Blender pipelines (glTF / GLB workflows)

What we’re looking for

• Strong fundamentals in JavaScript / TypeScript
• A portfolio showing WebGL / real-time 3D work (campaigns, labs, interactive sites—anything goes)
• You know how to keep things fast: profiling, optimisation, and performance constraints in the browser
• You can translate a creative idea into a build: taste + technical execution
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, idea-led environment where quality matters

Nice-to-haves (not deal-breakers)

• GLSL / shader experience
• Motion / animation background (or strong animation sensibility)
• Experimental interactive work—playgrounds, prototypes, side projects
• Agency / studio experience on campaign-led builds

Why you’ll want this role

• 12-month contract extendable, fully remote working as long as UK citizen
• You’ll ship work that’s public, premium, and global—not hidden behind a login
• You’ll collaborate with people who care about craft as much as delivery
• You’ll have room to experiment and help shape what modern web storytelling looks like

If you’ve ever looked at a campaign site and thought “this could be way cooler”—we should talk.
