Overview

Lead Artist (Remote - LATAM or Similar Time Zones)

We\'re looking for a Lead Artist to join the team behind an in-development online PvP card battler, currently in open alpha. This is a great opportunity for someone with strong creative vision and cross-disciplinary art leadership experience to take ownership of a game\'s evolving visual direction. As Lead Artist, you\'ll be responsible for shaping the game\'s look and feel across characters, environments, UI, and card visuals while managing a small team of internal artists and freelancers. You\'ll also stay hands-on, contributing to concepting, polishing, and review work, especially during key milestones. This is a fully remote position open to candidates based in Latin America or in compatible time zones.

Responsibilities

  • Define and evolve the visual identity of the game, ensuring clarity, consistency, and style across all areas of art
  • Review and guide work from concept to final implementation across 2D, 3D, UI, and VFX
  • Establish and maintain efficient art pipelines for asset production, balancing quality with performance
  • Collaborate closely with Design, Tech, and Production to align visuals with gameplay goals and scope
  • Provide hands-on support in key areas such as mockups, concept art, or asset polish
  • Mentor and support the growth of junior and mid-level artists
  • Coordinate with freelancers and external partners to ensure high-quality, cohesive output

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in game art, with at least 2 years in a lead or direction role
  • Strong portfolio showcasing stylized, character-driven art, ideally with fantasy or card game aesthetics
  • Proven ability to guide multidisciplinary teams (2D, 3D, UI, etc.)
  • Proficiency with tools like Photoshop, Blender, Figma, Spine, and Unity (or equivalents)
  • Solid understanding of game art pipelines, technical constraints, and cross-team workflows
  • Excellent communication and feedback skills
  • Fluent in English (written and spoken)
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience stepping into or aspiring to an Art Director role
  • Familiarity with outsourcing pipelines and scalable content production
  • Perks

  • Full-time contractor role with long-term potential
  • Fully remote work setup
  • Flexible PTO policy
  • Salary range : USD $30,000 - $50,000 depending on experience
  • InGame Recruitment is a specialised staffing solution provider dedicated to the gaming industry. Our extensive recruiting experience has given us a unique advantage, equipping us with comprehensive knowledge of this dynamic and ever-evolving market.
