The Tech Artist - Cinematics is a game engine specialist who designs and implements in-engine content production workflows to maximize both creativity and productivity for cinematic artists. This work includes importing, manipulating, and preparing 3D assets such as characters, scenery, cameras, animation, lights, VFX, and rendering parameters towards production-ready environments where artists can accomplish their creative work rather than dealing with technicalities. You will collaborate with cinematic artists and technical artists and developers to ensure our marketing assets are delivered to the highest quality possible.
This is a hybrid remote/in-office role working from our Stockholm studio. You will report to the Sr. Technology Lead in the Marketing Content Production Craft team.

We adopt a holistic approach to our benefits programs, emphasizing physical, emotional, financial, career, and community wellness to support a balanced life. Our packages are tailored to meet local needs and may include healthcare coverage, mental well-being support, retirement savings, paid time off, family leaves, complimentary games, and more. We nurture environments where our teams can always bring their best to what they do.
