The Role
Hutch is looking for an experienced Technical Artist to join the team in our Central London studio. We believe in small autonomous teams that have a lot of freedom and responsibility. As such, our Tech Artists are true generalists. Having the opportunity to write shaders, develop tools, work on some particle effects or even animation. Working on mobile free to play titles means that we never know what is on the horizon, new events and features bring with it exciting opportunities to try new things and work across lots of different areas.
A Tech Artist at Hutch should be someone who is adaptable and willing to work on a wide variety of challenges. We are happy to hire someone who needs to brush up in a few areas but is keen to help as the bridge between the artists and coders, being able to work iteratively in the mobile constraints and being up for the challenge of working on a variety of tasks is going to be key for the role.
At Hutch, we pride ourselves on our friendly and caring culture. The role requires collaborating closely with all members of the team and the ideal candidate will be comfortable facilitating conversations across disciplines.
