Job Details

Resolution Games is a cutting edge VR/AR studio focused on games that pave the way for the future of immersive and extraordinary VR experiences for all.

Now, we’re looking for an experienced VFX Artist to help craft unforgettable moments in our XR titles. If you’re passionate about stylized, performant effects and want to own your craft from spark to screen, we’d love to hear from you

About the Role

VFX is the magic of our games from elemental energy to imaginary simulations. As a VFX Artist at Resolution Games, you will take charge of creating and implementing VFX assets for our thrilling XR projects. You'll be part of a shared team, allowing you to contribute to various projects and work on different teams. Often, you’ll be the sole VFX Artist on a project, giving you the freedom to make creative decisions and fully own the VFX for each game. While you’ll work independently, collaboration remains essential—you’ll regularly engage with designers, developers, and artists to bring your vision to life. You’ll also be joining two other talented VFX artists who work in a similar role. It will be your responsibility to , and transform average into awesome.

What You’ll Do

  • Create and implement high-performance, visually striking VFX using Unity

  • Work with particle systems, shaders, textures, and meshes to craft dynamic effects.

  • Collaborate with programmers, audio designers, and animators to seamlessly integrate VFX into the gameplay.

  • Own the VFX process—from ideation and prototyping to implementation and polish.

  • Profile, optimize, and ensure VFX assets run smoothly across all platforms.

  • Collaborate across disciplines to ensure VFX fits seamlessly into gameplay, animation, and audio.

Requirements

  • Experience with game engine VFX Development

  • Experience with shaders

  • Understanding of animation timings

  • Comfortable optimizing for performance-limited platforms (bonus for mobile VR/AR).

Nice to Have

  • Knowledge of C# for VFX implementation.

  • Familiarity with HLSL, GPU, and the graphics pipeline.

  • Experience with performance debugging tools.

  • Background in VFX for mobile platforms.

Who you are

You’re a creative problem-solver with a strong sense of ownership. You love exploring how visual effects enhance gameplay and storytelling. You thrive in dynamic environments, can pivot between projects, and know how to balance artistic ambition with technical constraints.

You’re also a great communicator and collaborator, able to take initiative while still working closely with a team.

This role does require professional experience, but don’t let a few missing bullet points hold you back. Studies show that women and other underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. If you have a solid foundation and feel excited about the opportunity, we’d love to hear from you.

Who we are
Resolution Games is about more than just creating incredible games. We create virtual games that have real impacts on real people by connecting friends new and old all over the world, allowing them to get out of their seats and move around and engage in real adventures of all kinds.

The studio’s titles across existing and emerging platforms, from PC to XR, rank among the top-rated and most downloaded games in the space and illustrate the innovative and immersive ways the studio is constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible. The work that we do in our games like Demeo, Game Room, Racket Club, Ultimechs, Blaston, Bait!, Acron: Attack of the Squirrels! and Cook-Out: A Sandwich Tale drive real innovations that are clearing the path for novel XR use cases.

We are looking for someone who wants a unique opportunity and enjoys collaborating. Someone who wants to be a part of a team raising the bar and creating a new set of standards. Our colleagues have can-do attitudes who appreciate a small studio culture. Therefore, even though we have grown, we continue to work in small teams and experiment while tackling complex challenges. We value having every voice heard and seek out diversity, equity, and inclusion in everything we do. Last but not least, we want those of you who are not just skilled but also a great addition to the team. That is because we believe in team over the individual, a great mix of freedom with responsibility, and that people should always come before the process. P.S. Employee stock options are available.
