  • Work closely with the Art Director, Associate Art Director, and other Leads to ensure artistic unity across the game.
  • Collaborate with Design and Narrative Leads to create immersive and believable environments.
  • Design and work out the details of modular systems of architecture for levels.
  • Provide objective feedback, and establish development schedules.
  • Manage the day-to-day activities of the World Environment Art Team.
  • Mentor and help with career development to assigned team members.
  • Create and manage asset lists in collaboration with internal partner teams.
  • Coordinate workflow, support interdisciplinary communication, and facilitate efficient and effective building of the game world.
Skills, Experience and Qualifications:

  • At least 2 shipped titles, one shipped title in a leadership capacity. Experience with AAA titles preferred.
  • Prior experience leading other artists and managing their goal-setting and performance.
  • Ability to communicate and collaborate across multiple disciplines and locations effectively.
  • Knowledge of current industry standard tools: 3D Studio Max / Maya, ZBrush, Substance, Photoshop, etc.
  • Recent use of industry standard game editors (UE5/UE4 preferable).
  • Experience with industry-standard asset management tools.
  • Ability to inspire and bring out talent in others.
  • Classic drawing or painting techniques with the ability to sketch out ideas on paper.
  • Good sense of spatial composition and proportions.
  • Understanding of basic architecture.
  • Self-driven and a great-team player.
  • Excellent organizational, time management, and communication skills.
  • Work ethic focused on agility, dynamism, and collaboration.
  • Ability to perform multiple tasks, set priorities.
  • Outstanding problem solving abilities and capable of developing or optimizing new or existing pipelines.
