Technical Artist

Key Responsibilities:

• Bridge Art and Engineering: Collaborate with game designers, artists, and engineers to translate visual concepts into optimized, in-engine assets.
• Asset Integration: Import, configure, and maintain 2D/3D assets, materials, and shaders within Unity3D for mobile and WebGL builds.
• Performance Optimization: Profile and optimize assets, textures, lighting, and rendering pipelines to maintain high frame rates and minimal memory footprint.
• Tooling & Automation: Build and maintain Unity editor tools, import scripts, or asset validation pipelines to streamline workflows.
• Shader and VFX Work: Create and optimize shaders, particle systems, and post-processing effects to enhance visual fidelity.
• Cross-Platform Support: Ensure asset compatibility and consistent visual quality across iOS, Android, and WebGL platforms.

Core Skills:

• Strong experience with Unity3D (URP or HDRP) - asset pipelines, materials, lighting, and scene optimization.
• Proficiency in C# scripting for editor tooling, automation, or runtime integrations.
• Experience working with 3D modeling tools (Maya, Blender, 3ds Max) and 2D software (Photoshop, Substance Painter).
• Familiarity with shader authoring (Shader Graph, HLSL, Amplify Shader Editor, or similar).
• Deep understanding of rendering performance optimization across mobile and WebGL targets.

Technical Competencies:

• Experience with cross-platform deployment (iOS, Android, WebGL).
• Knowledge of asset compression, texture atlases, and memory management techniques.
• Comfort working with source control systems (Git, Perforce) and CI/CD pipelines for Unity projects.
• Basic familiarity with backend interactions - REST APIs, network calls, and event-driven systems (Go + AWS stack).
• Understanding of profiling tools (Unity Profiler, Xcode Instruments, Android GPU Inspector).

Soft Skills:

• Excellent collaboration and communication skills across design and engineering.
• Strong problem-solving ability and eye for detail.
• Comfortable in fast-paced, iterative development environments (Agile/Scrum).
• Passion for gaming and creating polished, visually engaging player experiences.

Nice-to-Haves:

• Experience with WebGL performance tuning and lightweight shader optimization.
• Exposure to multiplayer gameplay systems and client–server synchronization.
• Experience in procedural asset generation or VFX graph systems.
• Familiarity with analytics, events, or gameplay telemetry integration.
