Your Mission

We are looking for a Senior Visual Artist / Unity Environment Artist / 3D Generalist to create visually polished, stylized environments directly in Unity for interactive and real-time experiences.

This is a hands-on, artistically driven role for a senior or strong mid-level artist who can work autonomously and take ownership of an environment, from initial creation and scene layout through to final visual refinement.

The ideal candidate combines strong artistic sensibility with practical Unity experience, bringing together environment creation, composition, 3D generalist skills, simple animation, and light visual effects to deliver cohesive and engaging real-time environments.

The focus is on visual quality and execution rather than programming or complex technical development.

PS.: Candidates must be able to work and collaborate during US business hours (US time zones), regardless of their location.

Key Responsibilities

Environment Creation & Visual Development

Build and develop visually polished, simple, stylized 3D environments directly in Unity.
Take ownership of environment creation, from initial setup and layout through to final visual execution.
Create and arrange 3D assets, objects, and environmental elements to achieve a cohesive visual result.
Ensure environments maintain a strong artistic standard while remaining appropriate for real-time applications.
Balance a simplified, stylized aesthetic with polished presentation and visual quality.

Scene Layout & Composition

Design and organize scene layouts within Unity.
Apply strong principles of composition, spatial arrangement, and visual storytelling.
Position and refine environmental elements to create visually engaging and coherent scenes.
Ensure consistency in the overall look and feel of the environment.

Animation & Visual Effects

Create and implement simple object animations and movements within Unity.
Handle straightforward animated interactions, such as objects moving through a scene or flying off screen.
Develop and integrate light visual effects where needed.
Use Unity particle systems and other practical tools to enhance the environment and its interactions.
Ensure animations and effects integrate naturally into the overall scene.

Artistic Execution & Collaboration

Work autonomously and take responsibility for the quality and completion of assigned environments.
Apply broader 3D generalist skills to support environment development and visual refinement.
Collaborate with creative and technical teams to ensure the environment meets the project's visual and functional objectives.
Identify and address visual issues to maintain a polished final result.
Clearly communicate artistic decisions and explain the work personally developed and implemented in Unity.

What We're Looking For

We're particularly interested in artists who enjoy working directly in Unity and can independently turn a visual direction into a complete, polished environment.

You don't need to be a programmer or an advanced character animator. What matters most is your artistic eye, practical Unity experience, and ability to create visually compelling environments, even when the style is intentionally simple.
