Senior UI Artist [Avatar Project]

Job Description

We’re embarking on an amazing journey together with Lightstorm Entertainment and FoxNext Games, to the world of Pandora, developing a new cutting-edge game set on the beautiful and dangerous moon from the prominent Avatar film franchise.

As a Senior User Interface Artist here at Massive you'll ensure we create graphical UI with a distinct feel, which will guide the player's journey across Pandora and improve the overall gaming experience. You'll be guided and mentored by a Lead UI Artist, collaborate with a wider UI/UX team (which includes Technical Artists, programmers, and designers), whilst also working cross-functionally with multiple stakeholders and disciplines from across our AAA production team. Massive has established itself as a world-leading game dev studio, with an emphasis on quality and attention to detail. This extends to our UI approach, where we continually push what's expected.

This is a permanent position based in Malmö, Sweden, and requires working onsite. We kindly ask you to apply with your CV and message to the hiring manager / cover letter in English. Applications will be reviewed whilst the job-ad is posted.

Qualifications

You've an eye for detail, are creative, and enjoy finding innovative solutions to existing game UI and graphical obstacles. Whilst being a great artist, you're also a team player, and have experienced the full production cycle from within a AAA game dev team.

Besides the above we’re looking for someone aligned with our core values and the following skills and experience:

• A relevant portfolio of artwork (must include UI Art and ideally, examples with a fluid/organic nature - remembering Pandora, "It's kinda the Garden of Eden with teeth and claws" James Cameron)
• Previous experience from a AAA game production team through release
• Several years experience as a UI Artist on multiple projects
• Relevant degree in an Art/Design field, or the equivalent work experience
• Command of various design tools (e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effect & 3D software)
• Experience with node-based, visual scripting game engines (e.g. Snowdrop, Unreal or Unity) is not required but a bonus qualification.
