Beyond solving tough problems on their own, tech artists act as mentors and teachers. As a Senior Technical Artist, you will be a key in investigating and solving difficult performance problems while maintaining visual quality. You will work in a variety of areas including modeling, materials, texturing, animation, FX, gameplay, UI, as well as building art tools to improve workflows.
