Job Description

What we do

Propel your artistic talent within a world-class team with innovative and inspiring artists responsible for environment, characters, and design.

What you will do

Epic Games is seeking a Senior Hard Surface Modeler with a strong background in character and organic form modeling to join our team. You will work closely with the art, design, animation, technical animation, and production teams to support a steady stream of character, organic, and mechanical content for Fortnite. You will create stylized artwork and contribute to raising the visual quality of organic and hard surface modeling, while also being an excellent communicator and dedicated team player. Bring your art to life in the unique stylized world of Fortnite.

What you will be responsible for

  • Create high-quality 3D characters and organic elements from concepts and under the supervision of the art director.
  • Model elements in high and low resolution and create their textures, including characters, creatures, weapons, pickaxes, gliders, vehicles, and gadgets.
  • Design mechanical models with a high degree of articulation and animation.
  • Collaborate with various teams, including gameplay, animation, technical animation, visual effects, and technical art.
  • Create high-quality stylized models and textures that conform to the game's artistic vision.
  • Produce models that faithfully translate the intention and feeling of the original 2D concept.

What we are looking for

  • International-caliber modeling skills and proficiency in 3D software — for example, ZBrush for organic shapes and preferably 3ds Max for hard surface models.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively across different disciplines.
  • Strong texturing skills and experience with PBR materials.
  • Ability to transform a 2D concept into a fully developed 3D model.
  • Ability to create functional and articulated mechanical models.

Benefits

We pay 100% of the premiums associated with employee benefits for both employees and their dependents, and offer supplemental coverage for medical, dental, and vision care, critical illness, telemedicine, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and long-term disability insurance. We also offer a weekly short-term disability allowance and a competitive employer-matched retirement savings plan. In addition to the employee assistance program, we offer a comprehensive mental health program through Modern Health, an organization that provides free therapy and coaching services to employees and their dependents.
