What does a Computer Vision Engineer do at Hogarth?

A Computer Vision Engineer at Hogarth bridges the gap between cutting -edge AI and high-end content production. This role focuses on developing and integrating computer vision tools that enhance our visual effects (VFX), CGI, and creative workflows leveraging automation, image analysis, and procedural techniques to deliver content at scale.

You’ll work closely with artists, pipeline engineers, and creative stakeholders to build scalable systems that process, understand, and generate visual data. From understanding 3D assets and Adobe workflows to deploying production-ready AI tools using modern software engineering practices, this role sits at the intersection of art and automation. This role reports to Principal Computer Vision Engineer and will collaborate with global CGI/VFX and engineering teams across Hogarth.

Responsibilities

• Develop and integrate computer vision tools for use in CGI, compositing, rotoscoping, matte generation, asset tagging, and 3Dasset workflows.
• Collaborate with VFX supervisors, artists, and creative technologists to translate production challenges into scalable CV solutions.
• Build modular, reusable tools that interface with Adobe Creative Suite, 3D software (e.g. Blender, Maya, Houdini), and proprietary VFX pipelines.
• Implement best engineering practices including CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments (Docker), and version-controlled workflows.
• Benchmark, optimize, and document tools for performance, reliability, and production-readiness.

Requirements

• Solid understanding of computer vision techniques with a focus on their application in image, video, or 3D asset workflows.
• Hands-on experience with Adobe tools (e.g. After Effects, Photoshop) and familiarity with 3D software (e.g. Blender, Maya, Houdini).
• Strong Python skills with experience in building production-grade tools and familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and Git-based workflows.
• Cloud Infrastructure: Familiarity with cloud-based solutions and distributed computing and its application in scalable rendering, DevOps and storage options
• Performance Optimisation: Understanding how to optimise render times, memory usage, and data transfer.
• Collaboration and Communication: Strong communication skills to effectively liaise with different teams, document tools for technical and non-technical audiences from VFX artists to production supervisors and IT departments.
• Time management, problem solving and troubleshooting. The ability to identify and address technical issues that may arise during VFX production is critical to maintain project timelines and deliver high-quality results
