  • Supervise both 2D and 3D artists.

  • Develop and maintain art-production pipelines, processes, and documentation to ensure efficient asset creation and implementation.

  • Review and provide feedback on the team’s work, ensuring assets meet quality standards and align with the artistic vision and technical requirements of the project.

What You Bring to the Team:

  • A deep understanding of asset performance metrics and methodologies on the Roblox platform.

  • High proficiency in Roblox Studio and substantial experience on the Roblox platform.

  • Experience creating art assets under strict performance constraints while maintaining a clear, visually appealing style.

  • Experience collaborating with game designers and product teams to understand art request details and flag risks or needs for additional information.

  • Proven ability to own a game’s art direction and mentor a team of artists toward a consistent execution of that style or direction.

  • Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to manage and mentor a diverse team of artists.

  • Familiarity with project management tools such as Monday.com, Asana, JIRA, or similar applications.
