Turing is an AI-powered tech services company with a mission to accelerate AGI advancement and deployment by bridging the gap between global talent from 100+ countries and the world's best foundational LLM companies, by helping them improve performance through model evaluation, fine-tuning, feedback, factuality and handling diverse data.

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly creative and detail-oriented Senior 3D Artist with a strong understanding of stylized visual design and material-driven aesthetics. The ideal candidate should be capable of creating high-quality 3D assets that combine digital precision with handcrafted-inspired textures and finishes. This role requires a strong eye for form, lighting, and materials, along with the ability to translate concepts into visually compelling 3D outputs.Key Responsibilities

  • Create high-quality 3D models and stylized assets based on project briefs
  • Develop assets across styles such as low-poly, voxel, and material driven aesthetics
  • Simulate and replicate handcrafted textures including clay, fabric, paper and textiles
  • Ensure accuracy in geometry, topology, lighting, shading, and rendering
  • Produce multiple variations while maintaining consistency in style and quality
  • Optimize models and assets for intended use (render, real-time, or production pipelines)
  • Document workflows, processes, and asset metadata clearly
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams and incorporate feedback efficientlySkills

Requirements

  • Minimum 8+ years of professional experience as a 3D Artist or in a similar role
  • Strong portfolio showcasing stylized 3D work and material exploration
  • Solid understanding of 3D modeling, topology, lighting, shading, and rendering
  • Ability to replicate real-world materials and handcrafted textures convincingly
  • Strong sense of form, silhouette, and visual storytelling
  • Familiarity with non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) workflows
  • Should know various useful plug-ins/scripts of After Effects, 3ds Max, and Cinema 4D.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills
  • High attention to detail and strong time management

Benefits

  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI projects.
  • Competitive compensation.

Common questions

Do I need to be a software engineer to work for Turing?

No, not anymore. Turing built its name matching senior engineers with Silicon Valley companies, but it has since expanded into AGI infrastructure work and now hires non-engineering domain experts, technical writers, and researchers for post-training data annotation and RLHF. A strong analytical background and excellent English matter more than coding ability.

How does Turing's talent matching work?

Turing calls it the Intelligent Talent Cloud. You build a profile and go through vetting (automated tests, an AI-powered interview, practical skill assessments), and once vetted, Turing's algorithm surfaces your profile directly to partner companies like Fortune 500s and top AI labs. You don't browse listings or bid on work; matches come to you.

How is my creative work used in AI training?

Your work becomes examples the model learns from. Writing samples teach it to write, and voice recordings often train text-to-speech models. Read the contract's terms on how your voice or likeness can be used before you sign.

Do creative AI training roles allow creative freedom?

Some. You're hired for your talent, but most projects follow strict style guides, such as a neutral tone or a technical-manual style, so the work stays consistent.

What does Generalist work look like for a Senior 3D Artist?

You check AI answers to Generalist questions, correct their errors and write expert reasoning. As a Senior 3D Artist, you're hired for that judgment, so hands-on Generalist experience matters.

What specific skills does this listing call for?

Content Review is named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with this, expect the screening to test for it.

How much does this specific role pay?

The listing doesn't state a rate. The $30-65/hr shown here is our estimate from the role type and location (see /pay-methodology), so treat it as a rough guide and confirm the actual rate with the platform before committing time.

What happens when I click Apply on this listing?

Apply opens Turing's site, where you create an account and follow its sign-up steps.

Can I apply from outside Japan?

This role is open only to people based in Japan. The limit is usually about where the platform can legally hire, so applying from elsewhere rarely leads to an offer. Check the description for tax or right-to-work rules before you apply.
