Job Description

As a Game FX Artist, you will play a central role and collaborate with different game teams. Your task is to create rich and rewarding effects (mostly real-time) that will have substantial impact on the design and quality of our slot games. Our games have a large variation of themes which will enable you to produce artwork in different styles. At the same time, you will have alternating focus by working on each game for only a few months. You will work with everything from visualizing early game ideas, to producing the final artwork used in our games. This will be done by designing games in close collaboration with both artists and developers to jointly achieve the highest visual quality in mind. In order to play your part successfully, you will need to understand how the games work and being perceived. We believe in working in small agile teams, where the route from idea to implementation is very short. You will work in a casual and fun atmosphere, where you will have the opportunity to make a real difference. This is a 12-month fixed-term position (maternity cover).

As our team is international, we are open to considering candidates based in Bulgaria as well.
