We're a small team of excellent people who take care of everything from ideas to testing, and we intend to grow while maintaining our high standards.

Role

We are about to make a big leap forward to push Mob Control into the next level, and you might be the chosen one, Neo.

You’ll play a key role in the upcoming evolution of Mob Control, a mobile game with over 400 million downloads.

As a Senior Technical Artist, you’ll bridge the gap between art and engineering, designing scalable UI/UX systems, building stylized shaders, and solving creative challenges that directly impact gameplay and player experience.

We’re looking for a hybrid profile: someone with strong artistic fundamentals and enough technical experience to bring modular, visually stunning systems to life in Unity. You’ll collaborate closely with game designers, developers, and artists in a fast-paced LiveOps environment, contributing to one of the world’s most played mobile games.

What you’ll do:

Design and implement modular and reusable UI/UX systems (cards, popups, banners, upgrades, etc.).

Create custom shaders and materials (2D/3D) for characters, environments, and UI elements.

Build tween-based animation systems and shader-based responsive feedback fx.

Support gameplay teams with technical visual solutions and FX that enhance readability and impact.

Develop and integrate screen-space FX and postprocessing effects for menus and gameplay.

Contribute to VFX design for in-game actions, events, and player feedback.

Prototype and maintain tools to streamline art production and optimize pipelines.

Create basic 3D models or animations as placeholder content when needed.

Profile

6+ years of experience in game development, ideally in mobile or stylized GaaS titles.

Proven track record across full production cycles (from pre-production to LiveOps).

Strong grasp of visual design principles: color, form, contrast, timing, motion.

Solid Unity experience: uGUI, Shader Graph or Amplify, Animation and Timeline systems.

Experience creating stylized shaders for VFX and gameplay.

Familiarity with editor tools and custom inspectors in Unity.

Proficiency in 2D/3D tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, Blender, or Maya.

Nice to have:

Experience in high-volume LiveOps pipelines with frequent content updates.

A strong portfolio of stylized UI/UX, VFX, or technical art systems.

Passion for solving creative problems through smart, scalable technical workflows.
