  • Expertise in character and skin design, especially for free-to-play games, with a strong portfolio demonstrating creative and technical skill.
  • A deep understanding of trends and pop culture to identify opportunities and align game art with player interests, particularly in cosmetics and monetization strategies.
  • Proven track record of working on live ops games, with expertise in maintaining and refreshing a game's visual identity efficiently.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead, inspire, and manage an art team, fostering a positive, productive, and sustainable working environment.
  • Familiarity with Unreal Engine 5 and its art production pipelines, particularly in the context of effective skin and cosmetics development.
  • Excellent communication skills, capable of articulating vision, feedback, and sustainable production strategies across departments.
Nice to Have:
  • Background in concept, 3D modeling, or animation, adding depth to your art direction capabilities
  • Previous involvement in a successful F2P game with a focus on cosmetics for monetization, understanding the specific challenges and opportunities.
  • Skills in additional areas such as UI/UX design, storyboarding, or marketing, broadening the scope of your artistic oversight and contributing to the game's overall success.
Benefits:
  • Global, remote team.
  • 25 days holiday.
