Your Responsibilities

  • Develop photorealistic tiling and atlas materials following established PBR standards and layered materials/shaders.
  • Produce proof‑of‑concept layouts to inform game systems, set dressing, and composition.
  • Deconstruct concept art, reference imagery, and style guides into efficient asset lists, identifying opportunities for modular construction and asset reuse.

  • Collaborate with Lighting, Design, Engineering, and Technical Art to implement production solutions and solve content challenges.
  • Explore and evolve techniques and workflows that improve quality and efficiency.
  • Maintain and contribute to best practices.

  • Expert knowledge of Maya (preferably) or similar 3‑D software.
  • Exceptional asset creation abilities, particularly architectural and structural content.
  • Experience working from greybox to final assets, using low‑fidelity content to validate approaches before production.
  • Strong understanding of proportion, composition, lighting, and modular construction.
  • Ability to assess scope, provide estimates, and deliver high‑quality work on schedule.
  • Extensive experience with complex game engines such as Unreal, Frostbite, or Unity.
  • Experience actively collaborating with Designers, Engineers, and Technical Artists.
  • Advanced high‑fidelity modeling skills.
  • Ability to create photorealistic materials using industry‑standard tools such as Substance Painter and Substance Designer, combining photographic, scanned, and procedural elements.
  • Strong technical skills, with demonstrable understanding of memory and GPU budgets and best practices for creating high‑quality performant content.
  • Experience working with outsource vendors is a plus.
  • Experience creating game engine shader graphs is a plus.

Portfolio Requirements

  • Examples of assets and environments owned from start to finish.
  • Work demonstrating composition, architectural construction, and material creation, including believable wear and tear, and aging.
  • High‑fidelity modeled assets painted using tools such as Substance Painter.
  • Photorealistic tiling materials created with Substance Designer.
  • In‑engine layered materials combining tiling textures, detail overlays, and masked elements.
