VFX Artist

Contract
Remote Work

We are looking for a motivated, passionate, and skilled VFX Artist to join our growing team. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to the visual effects of our first IP - everything from concept to creation to implementation.


What You'll Do:

  • Create beautiful, stylized and performant visual effects for real-time gameplay.
  • Create VFX for both gameplay and immersive environments.
  • Collaborate directly with other artists, designers and engineers to solve VFX needs.
  • Work closely with the Art Director and other VFX artists to help keep quality and style consistent across all environments.
  • Write clear, concise documentation and provide training to ensure the team understands and can effectively use any VFX pipeline and tool created.


Ideally You'll Have:

  • 3+ years of game development experience with at least one shipped title in a VFX role
  • Proficiency in Maya or other 3D package
  • Proficiency in Unreal Engine and the capacity to contribute to the development of a VFX pipeline
  • Experience with both stylized and realistic VFX work. Our project straddles that line, and experience with both is usually the best fit for our art direction
  • Strong sense of using VFX to bring environments to life


What You’ll Get:

The base pay for this role is:

  • VFX Artist: $100,000 to $125,000 USD per year
  • Senior VFX Artist: $125,000 to $175,000 per year
  • Principal VFX Artist: $175,000 to $200,000 per year;

(or equivalent in your local currency). We pay fairly across our global team regardless of your location but it will differ based on factors such as experience, qualifications etc.


In addition to the base pay, we also offer the following:

  • Profit sharing and company equity to all employees, regardless of location
  • Industry leading medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Employer sponsored basic life insurance & AD&D
  • 401k retirement program
  • Flexible work hours
