A place where creativity thrives, new perspectives are invited, and ideas matter. A team where everyone makes play happen.

We are a global team of creators, storytellers, technologists, experience originators and so much more. We believe amazing games and experiences start with teams as diverse as the players and communities we serve. At Electronic Arts, the only limit is your imagination.

In this role, reporting to the Executive Producer, you will play a critical part in shaping our future for creators by developing powerful tools to collect, curate, and organize high-quality data that serve as the foundation for training state-of-the-art machine learning models.

  4. Sr. TAs are expected to assume ownership over any technical issues that arise on their projects and bring them to resolution.

You can be from an Art, Design, Mathematics, Engineering, or Computer Science background; however, you must demonstrate a comfort level in working with both art and science.

Your Qualifications:

  1. At least 8+ years of production experience in either film, VFX or games.
  2. A bachelor's degree (or equivalent experience) in a related field.
  3. Effective at communicating with different audiences: artists, engineers, and managers.

  5. Experience with 2D/3D art packages such as Maya, Photoshop, and Houdini.
  6. A solutions provider, especially as it pertains to testing and debugging technical issues.
  7. Experience with asset management, scripting, and automation is preferred.
  8. A willingness to jump into the unknown and solve new problems to resolve technical challenges and limitations.
