• Good understanding of architecture, biome construction, and environmental composition
• Proficient in texturing, material creation, and shader development
• Comfortable using both baked and tiling workflows
• Excellent eye for scale, proportion, and detail

• Work on visually ambitious, narrative-driven projects with a unique identity
• Fully remote team with flexible hours
