CG Lead / VFX Supervisor

Abyss Digital is looking for an experienced and technically versatile CG Lead / VFX Supervisor to lead the technical and pipeline direction of our CG department.

This role combines two key responsibilities:

  • Technical leadership — driving the full CG pipeline from pre-production through final render, ensuring technical integrity across every project
  • Team coordination — bridging the gap between the Art Director's creative vision and the CG team's technical execution, guaranteeing quality, deadlines, and pipeline consistency

We are looking for someone who is both a strong technical problem-solver and a confident leader — capable of managing complex CG productions while maintaining clear communication across departments.

We are scaling our team to support growing international demand. This role will directly shape the CG pipeline and technical standard of Abyss Digital.

If you're ready to lead and build at a high level — reach out.
