Cloud Chamber is looking for an exceptional Lead Environment Artist to join our creative team to help define and implement BioShock’s Creative Vision. Under the guidance of the Art Director and Associate Art Director, you will lead a team of environment artists to create compelling, stylized, high-quality level art and world-building. As a leader, you foster a collaborative process and proudly share your knowledge of industry standard tools and best practices with your team.

As a Lead Artist, your years of experience in the games industry have given you a solid understanding of form, shape, structure, silhouette, and composition as well as the ability to work within time constraints, optimization restrictions, and harmoniously collaborate with Design. You have a deep knowledge of architectural structure, industrial design, and what specific details are needed to craft believable game environments. You are heavily invested in Gameplay and can balance the needs of both departments to create an immersive, compelling world. You delight in seeing a project come together, to see the world come to life from concept to reality through scene composition and environmental storytelling.

At Cloud Chamber we ask for you to be courageous and kind, to have uncompromising ethics and unwavering integrity. Our goal is for you to model the behavior and qualities we like to see in our employees. We encourage you to champion high standards, push for progress, embrace change, and challenge the status quo. Above all else, we want you to foster a positive, proactive, and agile work environment that encourages innovation and collaboration on a stunning, immersive narrative and systems-driven experience. Come help us breathe life into this fantastical world.
