Technical Artist - Toca Life World

Toca Life World is looking for the first Technical Artist to join our team. We would like to make the process of creating and integrating art into the game much easier, faster and at higher quality - and you’ll own this challenge/responsibility.

We are investing heavily in improving the project and this is a shared goal across the company. We see many opportunities for the future of Toca Life World and want you to join us on this journey, shaping and making this future a reality.

What you’ll be doing

We are looking for a Tech Artist to take the lead on improvements to our art pipelines, tools and workflows. This role will allow you the opportunity to develop new tools and practices that enable your fellow artists and enhance the creation of our fantastic game.

As a Tech Artist you’ll often act as the bridge between artists and programmers - the link between artistic ambitions and coder support. You’ll be given autonomy to work alongside the entire team to define new processes and guarantee the stability and longevity of our product.

To prepare us for a long term future, you’ll help create and maintain clear communication and documentation for the team and lay the foundation for outsourcing support.
Is this you?

You’re an experienced Tech Artist that has worked with games, with a strong eye for visual design and a methodic appreciation for it.

You’re familiar with art and animation workflows, and you have scripting knowledge to make tools for art.

You enjoy problem solving, identifying challenges and building the right solutions to overcome them. You are experienced with Unity and have released commercial projects with it or with relatable Game Engines.

You believe in the power of play!

This is us!

Everything is designed from their perspective. We celebrate the diversity and quirkiness of their world and give them the freedom to play in ways that only they can.

Good to know!

This position is full time and based in our Stockholm studio with a hybrid working model (part office, part working from home). We apply a 6-month probationary period. You’ll need to be located in Sweden as we are unable to support relocation. As we’re an international company, with over 20 nationalities working here, and millions of users all over the world, you need to be fluent in English. Your application should therefore be in English.
