Environment Artist

As an environment artist, you will be working hands-on with the game world, seeing it grow in front of your hands and eyes. Perhaps one day, you will be populating a riverside with beautiful rocks, the next crafting a story of what happened in a forgotten back alley behind a theatre.

At Sharkmob we believe in a creative workflow - making sure that everyone contributes to the final look and feel of the world. It is a team effort! As an environment artist, you will work with Art and Narrative to create believable 3D environments.

Your responsibility will be building gameplay spaces with a focus on environmental storytelling together with Level Designers. Collaborate with the Tech and Prop Art teams to push visuals to new heights using cutting-edge UE tech.

Requirements:
- A relevant portfolio.
- You have been involved in shipping at least one AAA game.
- 3+ years of experience within Level Art/Set Dressing, using game engines.
- A deep understanding of art fundamentals such as form, proportion, and color theory.
- Interest in mentoring junior team members.
- Proficiency in modeling/texturing software, great knowledge of PBR, and content optimization.
- A comprehensive understanding of game content creation workflows, including different modeling and propping techniques.


It's a plus if you have:
- Experience with outsourcing
- Knowledge of UE4, shaders, and Blueprints
- Experience with lighting in game engines
- Understanding of architecture and design fundamentals
