Job Summary
Resolution Games is a cutting edge VR/AR studio focused on games that pave the way for the future of immersive and extraordinary VR experiences for all. We’re looking for an experienced VFX Artist to help craft unforgettable moments in our XR titles. If you’re passionate about stylized, performant effects and want to own your craft from spark to screen, we’d love to hear from you.
VFX is the magic of our games from elemental energy to imaginary simulations. As a VFX Artist at Resolution Games, you will take charge of creating and implementing VFX assets for our thrilling XR projects. You’ll be part of a shared team, allowing you to contribute to various projects and work on different teams. Often, you’ll be the sole VFX Artist on a project, giving you the freedom to make creative decisions and fully own the VFX for each game. While you’ll work independently, collaboration remains essential—you’ll regularly engage with designers, developers, and artists to bring your vision to life. You’ll also be joining two other talented VFX artists who work in a similar role. It will be your responsibility to transform average into awesome.
Key Responsibilities
- Create and implement high-performance, visually striking VFX using Unity.
- Work with particle systems, shaders, textures, and meshes to craft dynamic effects.
- Collaborate with programmers, audio designers, and animators to seamlessly integrate VFX into the gameplay.
- Own the VFX process—from ideation and prototyping to implementation and polish.
- Profile, optimize, and ensure VFX assets run smoothly across all platforms.
- Collaborate across disciplines to ensure VFX fits seamlessly into gameplay, animation, and audio.
Required Qualifications / Skills
- Experience with game engine VFX development.
- Experience with shaders.
- Understanding of animation timings.
- Comfortable optimizing for performance-limited platforms (bonus for mobile VR/AR).
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of C# for VFX implementation.
- Familiarity with HLSL, GPU, and the graphics pipeline.
- Experience with performance debugging tools.
- Background in VFX for mobile platforms.
Experience Requirements
This role requires professional experience in VFX for games, particularly within XR or VR/AR platforms. Candidates should have a solid foundation in creating performant and visually compelling VFX assets.
Who You Are
You’re a creative problem-solver with a strong sense of ownership. You love exploring how visual effects enhance gameplay and storytelling. You thrive in dynamic environments, can pivot between projects, and know how to balance artistic ambition with technical constraints.
You’re also a great communicator and collaborator, able to take initiative while still working closely with a team.
This role does require professional experience, but don’t let a few missing bullet points hold you back. Studies show that women and other underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. If you have a solid foundation and feel excited about the opportunity, we’d love to hear from you.
