Senior Game Environment Artist

Role overview The Metaverse Cell is hiring a full-time Senior Game Environment Artist to lead the look and feel of stylized, anime-inspired sports environments for a family-oriented active play platform. This is a senior, hands-on role that balances individual craft with mentorship, pipeline stewardship, and cross-discipline collaboration to deliver high-quality worlds that read clearly in real time.

Responsibilities - Create 3D environments end-to-end, from early concept through final in-engine implementation, including architecture, props, and set dressing. - Assemble, light, and ship environments in Unity while preserving real-time performance. - Partner with the Art Director, concept, and tech art to define and maintain visual direction. - Work with programmers to ensure environments meet technical and performance requirements. - Mentor teammates, set visual benchmarks, and help evolve environment art pipelines and best practices. - Maintain clean, well-organized assets and deliver on schedule.

Requirements - 3+ years of professional environment art experience on games, with at least one shipped title. - A portfolio showing modeling, texturing, composition, and in-engine implementation strength. - Proficiency with 3ds Max, Maya, or Blender, plus ZBrush and the Adobe texturing suite. - Strong grasp of environment fundamentals: scale, proportion, lighting, color theory, and environmental storytelling. - Working knowledge of PBR workflows, modular asset creation, and real-time constraints. - Experience with Unity (Unreal experience considered transferable) and professional written and spoken English.

Nice to have - Contributions to AA or AAA titles. - Cantonese or Mandarin Chinese language skills. - Range across stylized, realistic, and anime-inspired art styles, or hand-paint texturing experience. - Interest in sports-themed games or optimizing for low-power hardware.

Benefits and work setup - Full-time, remote or onsite in Hong Kong, with a preference for UTC+6 to UTC+10. - Competitive compensation, flexible hours, and a vacation policy that respects individual rhythms. - Product-driven culture that prizes craft, ownership, and personal growth.
