This position is responsible for assisting artists and developers in their daily duties. Blending artistic and technical abilities, this role is the bridge between the Art and Software teams, enabling the highest quality of artwork to be implemented into our games, while ensuring technical requirements including overall memory footprint and smooth performance are met. The role works directly and collaboratively with game teams (art and software developers in particular) with direction and guidance from Art Design Management. Duties include preparing data for in-game implementation in both proprietary engine and Unity platform environments, assisting with asset staging, and generating coordinates.

  • Develops game art on multiple platforms (e.g., proprietary and Unity), handles data setup, and can identify, propose, and support implementation of process improvements.
  • Produces particles, shaders, and other VFX for Unity applications.
  • Efficiently solves problems, communicate, and educate other team members as needed.
  • Proactively self-trains to remain at the forefront of Unity engine technology.
  • Analyzes Konami and competitor products and field performance from a player’s perspective to find industry trends, consider players in art design, and discern which art approaches are most effective to appeal to gamblers. This includes :
  • Attending field research trips to casinos monthly or as required. Researching via online methods (e.g., YouTube) to build familiarity with the industry. Attends and provides input on follow-up team analysis discussions.
  • Attending G2E and other tradeshows or conferences as required.
