This role is pivotal in merging artistic talent with technical skills, producing visually captivating content that enriches gameplay and presents unique experiences to a diverse audience. The Lead Technical Artist serves as a bridge between the technical and artistic teams, ensuring that high-quality artwork is seamlessly integrated into games while adhering to technical specifications regarding performance and overall game size. Collaborating closely with game development teams, the Lead Technical Artist aims to refine tools, workflows, and processes within a Unity-centric development framework.

  • Align asset creation with functional specifications and graphic proposals, focusing on enhancing game rules and flow through visual elements. Employ cost-effective techniques and tools to maximize effort.
  • Create visual effects, including particles and shaders, for Unity applications.
  • Proactively address challenges, communicate effectively, and provide guidance to team members as necessary.
  • Engage in self-directed learning to stay updated with the latest Unity engine technologies.
  • Assist in developing rapid prototypes for experimental features using Unity 3D.
  • Refine Unity 3D scene implementations to meet product and creative requirements.
  • Conduct analyses of Konami and competitor products from a player's perspective to identify industry trends, ensuring player considerations are integrated into art design. This includes:
    • Participating in field research trips to casinos as needed. Conducting online research to familiarize with industry standards. Contributing to team discussions following research.
    • Attending relevant trade shows and conferences as required.
  • Perform additional duties as assigned.
What We Offer:
  • Competitive Compensation
  • Robust 401(k) plan with company matching
