Technical Art Director [Far Cry]

Overview

As a Technical Art Director at Ubisoft Montréal, you have the highest-level understanding of what our tech can do, can’t do, yet could do, plus visibility on the project as a whole. You’re responsible for providing expert insight, tools, and support to steer a game – and its creators – towards success. You’ll collaborate with other directors in the early stages to shape the project’s goals before committing resources, considering factors like rendering, performance, and memory, alongside timing and momentum.
