You will play a key role in helping to develop the workflows to make quality and efficient art, while guiding the art team during creation and optimisation of objects within our AAA games. This is a fantastic opportunity to influence the technical art of Rebellion's future projects.

Responsibilities:

  • Maintain and improve existing art workflows and practices.
  • Identify inefficiencies in the art creation workflows and propose solutions.
  • Design and implement new pipeline and optimisation tools to aide content creation.
  • Guide artists in learning new and best practices in content creation and optimisation.
  • Author and improve technical documentation and tutorials around our tools.
