As Art Director, you will have the opportunity to provide influence and leadership - both within the art team and across development. You will provide vision and guidance when it comes to encouraging a culture of excellence and further developing the quality of our art.

Our artists are aligned on their values. They share their inspiration, knowledge, and passion with the others on the team. They aspire to treat everything they work on as a personal masterpiece. They play the game and are encouraged to speak up if they see anything that is not up to our high standards. They put their time and passion into what will have the biggest payoff for our players.
