Your Role:
We’re looking for a Generative Concept Artist to help define the visual tone of our world—from detailed biomes and settlements to armor tiers and environmental storytelling. You’ll use a combination of generative AI tools like Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, Flux, and custom LoRAs to create photorealistic concepts that guide the rest of the team. This is not a traditional concept art role—it’s fast, iterative, and grounded in high-end realism.

Responsibilities:
• Generate high-quality concept art and visual references using a mix of AI and traditional workflows
• Use tools like ComfyUI, Flux, and Stable Diffusion (with ControlNet, LoRAs, etc.) to create reproducible and editable visual directions, using Image-to-image and text-to-image workflows
• Translate prompts and creative briefs into cohesive visual moodboards, biome layouts, architecture, props, and character looks
• Blend AI outputs with automatic and manual touch-up (e.g., using In-/Outpaint, Photoshop or equivalent tools)
• Build a re-usable visual language and reference library for worldbuilding, gear tiers, and faction aesthetics
• Work closely with the Art and design team to ensure all visuals support gameplay and tone

Requirements:
• 3+ years experience in concept art, visual development, or similar fields
• A strong portfolio showing realistic or cinematic concept art (characters, environments, props)
• Proficiency in AI-driven workflows: Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, InvokeAI, or similar
• Understanding of prompt engineering, ControlNet, and image-to-image workflows
• Skilled in Photoshop (or equivalent) for refinement, paintovers, and layout
• Strong visual storytelling skills with a grounded, worldbuilding-first mindset

What we offer:
• The opportunity to leave your mark on the gaming industry by working on a groundbreaking AAA title.
• A fun and dynamic work environment, surrounded by a team of passionate, creative, and talented individuals.
• Competitive salary and benefits package, including relocation assistance for the right candidate.
• The chance to live and work in the vibrant and beautiful city of Munich, Germany.
