At Playdead, we are seeking a skilled Technical Lighting Specialist to join our team and contribute to the development of GAME3, an open-world sci-fi adventure. As a Technical Lighting Specialist, you will play a crucial role in supporting our artists and leads with the technical aspects of the lighting pipeline.

Your responsibilities will include collaborating closely with rendering programmers to identify and debug problems, developing workflows and pipelines using Unreal Engine 5, and working with Blueprints. Depending on your experience, you may also be involved in Python or C++ tool development.

  • Developing tools with Blueprints and creating materials
  • Ensuring the game meets ambitious artistic goals
  • Solving lighting issues that limit creative direction alongside rendering engineers
  • Supporting all technical aspects of the lighting art pipeline
  • Educating on lighting best practices for modern game development in Unreal Engine 5
  • Performance and optimization for a modern 3D graphics pipeline

To succeed in this position, you will need professional working experience with 3D game production focusing on lighting, technical knowledge of lighting and lighting systems, and experience working with major game engines, preferably Unreal Engine 5 or other proprietary game engine.
