WHAT WE VALUE:
• Significant experience as a Character Artist on shipped AAA titles
• Expert-level sculpting and modelling skills (organic and hard surface)
• Strong experience with PBR texturing and material workflows
• Confidence implementing assets in Unreal Engine or equivalent AAA engines
• Adaptability across evolving pipelines, engines, and project requirements
• A collaborative, grounded, and production-aware mindset
BONUS FOR:
• Experience working across both original IP and partner projects
• Contribution to workflow, shader, or material development
