Pipeline Architecture Lead

As a Pipeline Manager at Yotta, you will play a crucial role in designing, integrating, and governing production pipelines within a high-performance datacenter environment supporting feature film visual effects and animation workloads. Your responsibilities will include: - Lead the design and evolution of production pipeline architecture across DCC platforms, render management systems, storage systems, and datacenter compute infrastructure. - Architect and implement scalable integrations between creative applications like Houdini, Maya, and Nuke and high-performance render farms in datacenter and cloud environments. - Ensure pipeline reliability, scalability, and performance optimization aligned with enterprise datacenter operational standards. You are required to have: - 7+ years of experience in VFX, animation, or media production pipeline development and management. - Strong expertise in Linux-based environments and distributed compute systems. - Advanced Python scripting and pipeline automation experience. - Deep understanding of render farm architecture, job scheduling, and workload orchestration. - Experience integrating DCC applications such as Houdini, Maya, or Nuke into large-scale production pipelines. In this role, you will also be responsible for establishing and maintaining seamless integration between production pipelines and datacenter infrastructure, driving automation initiatives to improve pipeline efficiency, and leading the development and maintenance of pipeline tools. Additionally, you will provide technical leadership, mentorship, and define operational policies aligned with production and infrastructure requirements. Yotta is looking for someone who can evaluate emerging technologies in cloud computing, distributed rendering, containerization, and infrastructure orchestration to enhance pipeline capabilities and lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on scalability, automation, and operational excellence. Experience working within hyperscale datacenter environments, familiarity with cloud platforms, and operational excellence are essential for this position. If you have a passion for pipeline architecture, technical leadership, and continuous improvement, this role at Yotta might be the perfect fit for you.
