At EA, we're searching for the most talented and creative game developers in the world to help us become the #1 mobile gaming company. Our teams are building on the success of titles such as Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, FIFA Mobile, Madden Mobile, Real Racing, Plants vs. Zombies, the Sims, and The Simpsons: Tapped Out.
Role Overview
As a Lead Character Artist, you will be at the forefront of creating an amazing array of beautifully realized popular characters. From scuplting high-resolution meshes to creating game ready assets to managing the department's day-to-day activities, you are a master at running a tight ship, yet remain open to collaboration and input. You will partner with the art director, tech team, and design department to craft a fully integrated pipeline that respects stakeholder needs, all while contributing your own experience to the mix. Expectations are high, and your skills will help realize our unique vision.
Our game has a fresh and unique stylized art style, and you need to be able to both execute and expand upon it. Your job is to ensure extremely clear visual directions are crafted from a variety of inputs, and to create a very high visual quality bar. Your ability to guide external partners will define success for this department.
You also need a strong eye for detail, not only in art but in communication and planning. As a lead artist, the project relies on your ability to adequately anticipate needs and solve challenges as they arise, documenting processes and ensuring that pipelines are adhered to. This is your chance to be responsible for and own a critical part of the game creation process.
