Are you someone with a strong background in tech art? Do you enjoy generating rich landscapes in Houdini and populating them procedurally? You might be the right fit for our team!
Our technical art team defines and implements the systemic processes and pipelines by which the art content of our project is developed. We collaborate with all disciplines to drive the project's tools and pipelines in a manner that is conducive to efficient game development, technical correctness, and highly aesthetic artwork.
Area of Impact:

We would like to hear from you if you identify with the following:
- Professional experience as a technical artist on at least 2 published console / PC titles
- Experience working professionally with Houdini
- Extensive experience with Maya or similar 3D packages
- Mastery of scripting languages (Python / MEL preferred)
- Able to define asset compliance within a PBR compliant pipeline
- Experience working in Unreal is an asset
- Experience in shader creation through a node-based editor is a plus
- A thorough portfolio demonstrating your experience (please include link with application)
While we think the above experience could be important, we’re keen to hear from people that believe they have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of our requirements, then please still apply.
