  • Receive, give, and apply feedback effectively while maintaining a constructive attitude.
Skills, Experience and Qualifications:
  • 3+ years of experience as a Texture or Technical Artist.
  • Previous experience with creating Unreal materials and shaders from scratch.
  • Ability to quickly prototype proof-of-concept ideas and looks based on concept or reference.
  • Strong knowledge of texturing software, preferably Substance Designer and Painter.
  • Familiarity with material layer systems.
  • Ability to work independently with a high level of autonomy.
  • Experience with shader networks and procedural texturing.
  • Familiar with Perforce.
  • Strong organizational and communication skills, with a critical eye for detail.
  • Highly detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and able to embrace change for a fast-growing organization.
  • Ability to learn new areas of development.
  • Ability to collaborate with peer-level Artists, Engineers, and Game Designers.
  • Ability to partner with a diverse group of personalities effectively and constructively.
  • Excellent time management skills.
  • Able to problem-solve and prioritize issues while developing a production pipeline.
  • Self-motivated towards solving creative problems.
  • You have a love for research, reference, and documenting your findings to share with the team.
  • Work ethic focused on dynamism and collaboration.
  • Champion of high standards, pushing for progress, embracing change, and challenging the status quo.
  • Uncompromising ethics and unwavering integrity.
  • Willing to uphold the values of Cloud Chamber.
  • Ability to take direction well.
  • Able to respond elegantly to difficult creative changes, often late in the process.
  • Humble, open to coaching, an iterative process, and group critique.
  • A positive force multiplier with a great team-player attitude.

We are Cloud Chamber: a collaborative team of inspired minds who create games together. We strive to make unique, entertaining, and thoughtful game experiences that engage the world.
