About the Role

We are looking for a talented Senior Texture Artist with a passion for creating world-class materials and surfaces that elevate the visual quality of games. In this role, you'll be responsible for authoring high-quality textures, materials, and trim sheets for real-time environments, ensuring assets are both visually striking and technically efficient. You'll combine artistic excellence with strong technical expertise to deliver assets that look exceptional in-game.

Responsibilities

Collaborate closely with artists, technical artists, and developers to ensure assets meet both artistic goals and technical performance requirements.
Establish and maintain consistent material and texturing standards across projects, helping to drive visual quality and production efficiency.
Support optimisation efforts by creating assets that align with modern game engine constraints and physically based rendering (PBR) workflows.

Requirements

Proven experience as a Texture Artist on shipped game titles, with expert-level knowledge of trim sheet creation and material authoring.
Strong understanding of 3D art pipelines and asset creation workflows, despite a texture-focused specialisation.
Advanced proficiency with Substance Painter and Substance Designer, alongside excellent artistic judgement, colour theory, and attention to detail.
