AI-First Technical Artist for Mobile Games Pipelines

Voodoo; Paris; Sur place; EUR 111 000 - 166 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Voodoo, a Paris-based consumer tech company, seeks a freelance Technical Artist to bridge art and engineering in an AI-first studio. You will set up conventions, tools and pipelines that let AI generate, check and integrate 2D and 3D assets across the portfolio with minimal human intervention.

By Q1 2027 we want Sophia running full art flows end to end, and you will be key to getting there. You will work with the dev lead, the AI/Figma/Unity workflows engineer, and the art team to implement

Qualifications

• 5+ years as a Technical Artist, ideally in mobile games.
• Hands-on experience using AI in art production (e.g. Scenario, Flux, 3D generation tools, ComfyUI or similar).
• Strong understanding of 3D models and meshes and how to optimise them; you don't need to be a 3D modeller, but you know what makes a mesh production-ready
• Strong Unity skills: asset import and optimisation, C# scripting for editor tools; Shader Graph/HLSL, VFX and particles are a plus
• Experience building tooling for art software, in particular Maya (Python and/or MEL)
• Solid grounding in Photoshop and Illustrator: the 'art' in technical art matters to us
• Good understanding of mobile constraints (performance, memory, draw calls, batching)
• Autonomous, pragmatic and deadline‑driven: you know when an asset is good enough and move on
• Fluent written and spoken English

Responsabilités

• Define art conventions and standards (naming, structure, layout rules for UI, banners and store assets) so that assets can be produced and validated automatically, not hand-polished one by one
• Build tools and scripts in art software (Maya, plus Photoshop/Illustrator where useful) that check and fix assets automatically, e.g. validating that 3D meshes are watertight, within poly budgets and correctly set up, so an AI agent can run them as part of a pipeline
• Optimise 3D models and meshes (topology, polygon count, UVs, LODs) and textures (compression, sizes, atlases) for mobile, without sacrificing visual quality
• Own the Unity import pipeline: import settings, asset post-processors and automation so assets land in our games correctly and consistently
• Integrate AI generation tools (image, 3D, animation) into production workflows and evaluate new ones as they appear
• Help scale animated assets (e.g. animated store banners and promo visuals) across many games through templates and automation rather than manual work
• Debug and fix graphical and performance issues across mobile devices; support shaders, VFX and particles where needed
• Document everything so the pipelines keep running and improving after setup
