Technical Artist, Clash of Clans

Supercell

The Clash of Clans Team is looking for a Technical Artist to streamline our asset production tools, workflows and file handling solutions, by working alongside our game artists and tools programmers. Your main task will be to provide and implement technical solutions for the various art production pains the team experiences on a regular basis. To be successful in this role, you will need to be a proactive programmer/artist who can communicate with artists, designers and programmers to help the team deliver world-class art, for world-class games.

Working in the Clash of Clans art team is different. You are expected to seek feedback, not approval, meaning you need to be highly autonomous, working within a completely flat environment where you need to balance your own ambitions with the needs of the team. A large part of that is actively hunting for contrary opinions that will lift your work by exposing your personal biases and blind spots. Ultimately, you decide what feedback to action because the entire team trusts you to make the best decisions for the game and the players.

Responsibilities

  • Work with artists to build and maintain the art production pipeline and tools
  • Troubleshoot technical issues and suggest improvements to workflows and tools
  • Create and maintain scripts and plugins for Blender and Adobe Animate (Flash)
  • Work with the technical team to improve tools for artists
  • Ensure file handling is up to date, within modern game development standards

Requirements

  • Professional experience having shipped a game or worked on a live game
  • Competent in Python & Javascript
  • Strong communication skills
  • Proactive attitude, go-get mentality
  • Structured and able to clearly define, prioritize and plan your own tasks
  • Keen to learn and further develop your expertise

Benefits and Compensation

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems is not what we seek to do. We develop Supercell as an employer for you to do your best work and to call this the best experience in your professional life.

We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits to serve this purpose. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource. Read More
