Implement and optimize assets for performance and memory usage, while maintaining visual fidelity.
Develop and maintain documentation, and contribute with best practices for the art pipelines and tools.
Research and evaluate, to come up with new creative ideas and innovative solutions.
Provide support, guidance and feedback to your peers as well as other disciplines and outsourcing partners.
Lead certain areas of a project and take responsibility for ongoing tasks and goals.
Mentor and serve as an example for less experienced colleagues.

A great artistic eye and attention to detail.
Great problem-solving abilities, both technical and creative.
Effective communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work in a multidisciplinary team.
