As a Vegetation Technical Artist, you will be responsible for the entire scope of vegetation data creation in our worlds. You will be satisfied when the pipeline allows your deliverables to have exceptional visual quality and the game to maintain peak performance.

• You participate in the development of your team by documenting and transmitting methods (pipelines, tools, procedures);

With a solid experience and a strong motivation for the job of Technical Artist on major/AAA titles, you want to put your talent to work on one of the most awaited titles at Ubisoft:
