We know that this can mean something different across employers. For us, this means we are looking for someone who already has experience setting up and handling technical art pipelines, has experience working with teams, is a great communicator and can manage feedback. Experience with technical animation systems would be nice to have.</p><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Within 1 month, you’ll…</h3><ul class="list-disc list-inside my-5 pl-5 space-y-2 text-gray-700"><li class="leading-relaxed">Understand the positioning of Gamemode One in the market, including our company structure, the vision for our game, and the company's present projects and future goals.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Onboard to the team’s workflows, tools, and version control systems, including mastering asset management processes.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Actively participate in brainstorming sessions, sharing your insights on the art impact of certain mechanics, narrative elements, and provide feedback on the overall player experience.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Build relationships with the team, grounding your communication in idea sharing and clear two-way feedback.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Demonstrate cultural understanding and values alignment by leveraging curiosity and courage while learning about the company.</li></ul><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Within 3 months, you’ll…</h3><ul class="list-disc list-inside my-5 pl-5 space-y-2 text-gray-700"><li class="leading-relaxed">Research and develop technical art prototypes such as a new pipelines or automated tools that can help achieve the artistic vision for projects.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Take ownership of specific technical systems (e.g., animation tools, templates and factories, variable setups for animation and rendering).</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Document techniques and processes that increase the technical performance of projects (e.g., performance settings for projects that optimize particle counts and entity rendering)</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Develop processes that raise team efficiency such as rigs optimizations and asset assembly automation.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Deliver visible impact on in-production projects, such as innovative and performant rendering techniques and setups that support reactive animation systems.</li></ul><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Within 6 months, you’ll…</h3><ul class="list-disc list-inside my-5 pl-5 space-y-2 text-gray-700"><li class="leading-relaxed">Contribute to defining the scope and art direction of projects.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Lead the setup of advanced technical systems for at least one project such as entity rendering, animation and assembly.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Support junior and part-time artists in technical workflows.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Introduce optimizations that speed up iteration and unlock new creative options.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Be recognized as a go-to problem solver for art/tech challenges.</li></ul><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Within 12 months, you’ll…</h3><ul class="list-disc list-inside my-5 pl-5 space-y-2 text-gray-700"><li class="leading-relaxed">Be seen as a driver of technical innovation in the studio.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Shape and maintain pipelines that support multiple projects with scalability in mind.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Smooth out tedious processes with automation that increase team productivity and output quality.</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Pioneer new methods on the edge of Minecraft technology (MER pipelines, custom entity systems, advanced tooling).</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Influence the creative direction of future IP and 3rd Party projects.</li></ul><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Why our job descriptions look like this</h3><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Our job descriptions look different than the average, and that’s on purpose! We find the normal approach to be far too prescriptive. Defining explicit qualifications and requirements would be us defining how you should have acquired a certain skillset. What these generally achieve is intimidating those who don’t fit the mold to not apply. That’s not our style. In an effort to be inclusive, and clear, we take a more descriptive approach. Read through the opportunity, and the description of the work you’ll be doing. Decide for yourself if the work excites you, and is something that you are able to rise to the challenge of.</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">If you don’t see yourself fully reflected in every job requirement listed on the posting above, we still encourage you to reach out, apply and tell us more about yourself in your application. Research has shown that women and underrepresented groups often only apply when they feel 100% qualified. We are committed to creating a more equitable, inclusive and diverse company and we strongly encourage applicants of all genders, ages, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, sexual orientations, and life experiences to apply.</p><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Benefits</h3><ul class="list-disc list-inside my-5 pl-5 space-y-2 text-gray-700"><li class="leading-relaxed">Unlimited paid time off</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Flexible hybrid schedule</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Health Spending Account of $3000/year</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Charitable matching of $2000/year</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Investment in professional development</li><li class="leading-relaxed">Access to the benefits above without a probationary period</li></ul><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">First Name</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Last Name</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Email</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Phone</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Address</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">City</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Province</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">–Select–</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Postal Code</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Country</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Canada</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Cover Letter</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Choose File</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">No file selected</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Resume</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Choose File\*</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">No file selected</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Date Available\*</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Desired Pay</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Website, Blog, or Portfolio</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">LinkedIn Profile URL</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Who referred you for this position?</p><h3 class="text-xl md:text-2xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-gray-800">Thank You</h3><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Your application was submitted successfully</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Apply for This Job</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Apply for This Job</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">---</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Link to This Job</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Location</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Halifax, Nova Scotia (Remote)</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">---</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Employment Type</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Full-Time</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">---</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Minimum Experience</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Mid-level</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">---</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Compensation</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">$68,000 - $74,000</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">---</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Submit ApplicationCancel</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed"><a href="https://www.bamboohr.com/privacy-policy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-800 hover:underline transition-colors duration-200">Privacy Policy</a></p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">• <a href="https://www.bamboohr.com/terms-of-service" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-800 hover:underline transition-colors duration-200">Terms of Service</a></p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">• © BambooHR All rights reserved.</p>
