For the Melba Team we are looking for a technical artist to work closely with programmers to develop, iterate and test different solutions and ideas. This is a chance to really make lasting impact on the features-set, quality and usability of our technology.

Responsibilities 

• Collaborating with other teams to ensure that the techniques being developed are compliant on current and next generation hardware platforms.
• Researching and developing technical tools for a project.
• Assisting in asset performance and validation.
• Solving complex technical issues during development.
• Deciding on what software and tools are required for game production.
• Developing and maintaining resources and pipelines along with programmers.
• Researching and overseeing the implementation of rendering techniques.
• Optimisation of render processing and memory use.
• Maintaining technical documentation.

Development

• Support graphics programmers with renderer implementation.
• Design and implement HLSL shaders for PBR.
• Establish materials support and assets pipelines.
• Select, prepare, and adapt art tools.
• Write HLSL compute shaders for procedural content.
• Provide assets for development.

Investigate and evolve

• Keep up to date on the latest developments in rendering and other techniques.
• Maintain a primary interest in PBR lighting and simulation-based approaches in general, like ray-tracing or Machine Learning driven solutions.
