  • Main Responsibilities
  • Technical Integration & Planning
  • Use existing 3D models to identify and draft optimal equipment installation points.
  • Clean up and simplify 3D files (Auto CAD, Vector Works).
  • Build previsualization files and batch maps (pixel zoning) so operators can program the show remotely.
  • Structure Design & Material Management
  • Draft structural layouts (trusses, ground towers) required for deployment.
  • Define specific equipment requirements for events.
  • Creative Pre-production & Event Support
  • Participate in the creative process: prepare projection surfaces and pixmaps for the creative team, and build 3D space models.
  • Act as a technical point of contact to support required adjustments and plan modifications as projects evolve.

What we're looking for

  • Education: Technical diploma (DEC) in Industrial Design, Stage Production, Stage Management, Stage Technique, Lighting, or equivalent experience.
  • Experience: 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience using Auto CAD and Vectorworks in professional contexts or large-scale projects.
  • Software Skills: Proficient with Auto CAD and Vectorworks. Experience with 3D CAD software like Solid Works or Inventor is a plus.
  • Technical Background: Solid understanding of stage structures (trussing, rigging) and lighting setups.
  • Mindset: Highly resourceful with a strong sense of initiative. You can make solid technical decisions and propose smart logistical solutions when a plan hits a snag!
  • Inclusivity

Inclusivity is at the heart of our culture.

We welcome and value candidates of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences.

Our job posting uses simplified grammar to make it easier to read across languages and is not intended to exclude or favor any gender.
