Job Description

The Paris studio has never had a structured Tech Art function. Graphics development on Unreal Engine currently relies on scattered skills, with no real pipeline and no clear ownership. You will be the first Senior Tech Art to lay the foundations: building a robust pipeline around Houdini and Blender, integrating it cleanly into Unreal, and growing our actual Tech Artist. In short, you turn a function that isn't structured enought today into a recognized discipline within the studio, on a new starting production.

Job Responsibility

  • Build a robust pipeline around Houdini and Blender
  • Integrate pipeline cleanly into Unreal
  • Grow the actual Tech Artist
  • Own the asset pipeline across Blender, Houdini, 3DSmax/Maya and Unreal
  • Industrialize, document, and make it scalable
  • Mentor one Tech Art person
  • Support her ramp-up on UE, JIRA task management, prioritization and follow-up
  • Align Tech and Art teams on a shared pipeline
  • Collaborate daily with Gameplay, Tech, Design and Art teams
  • Identify bottlenecks in Unreal
  • Prioritize fixes
  • Produce reporting via Unreal Insights
  • Write HLSL shaders
  • Work in Unreal's Material Editor, Niagara (VFX) and Sequencer

Requirements

  • Mid-Senior Level experience
  • Tech Art pipeline ownership across Blender, Houdini, 3DSmax/Maya and Unreal
  • Industrialization, documentation, and scalability of asset pipeline
  • Mentoring one Tech Artist
  • Cross-team alignment with Tech and Art teams
  • Rendering & memory performance identification and prioritization
  • HLSL shader authoring
  • Unreal Engine Material Editor, Niagara (VFX), and Sequencer proficiency
  • Autonomy on Unreal Engine
  • Performance reporting via Unreal Insights
