  3. Take responsibility for cinematic setups and deliver custom high-quality visual effects for the cinematic team.
  4. Support art teams in achieving the visual target by providing automation, shaders, documentation, cinematic setups, and scripts.
  5. Solve technical production issues, define workflows, streamline processes, and develop tools/frameworks for art, working in conjunction with art team and the programming team.
  6. Collaborate with leads and team members to define and prioritize goals and tasks for visual effects and tech art.
  7. Coordinate with other studio groups to achieve project objectives.

Who you are:

  1. Minimum of 2 years of professional experience as a technical artist in the gaming industry with a strong focus on VFX and/or cinematics.
  2. Demonstrated expertise in working with particle effects, optimization techniques, and shader development.
  3. Previous hands-on experience with 3D software tools such as Maya, Blender, 3ds Max, Adobe AfterEffect, SideFX Houdini and/or Photoshop.
  4. Hands-on experience with proprietary game engines.
  5. Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot technical issues effectively.
  6. A demonstrated ability to contribute innovative and original ideas across all facets of game production and development.
  7. A team player, actively fostering a collaborative and supportive work environment, and dedicated to maximizing team and departmental performance.
