  • Creating high-quality, efficient, game-ready GUI assets
  • Collaborating remotely with relevant team members to implement in-game functionality
  • Presenting, reviewing, and discussing work online
  • Working with the development team and community to gather and act on feedback

Requirements:

  • A relevant degree and/or an outstanding portfolio/demo that showcases your ability
  • A true passion for video games and the desire to create high-quality experiences
  • Highly motivated with a proactive attitude and the ability to work in a team

  • Experience working on console development
