BLT Recruiting is looking for an Unreal Supervisor. The ideal candidate will have a strong, hands-on understanding of the full pipeline of content creation in Unreal, as well as proven experience leading a team of fellow Tech Artists, Animators and Developers.

A deep level of technical knowledge combined with strong creative and visual instincts is critical.

• You’re expected to be well-versed across Sequencer, Blueprints, various lighting techniques, and material design in Unreal.

• Able to lead the team by example.

Additional Requirements:

• Advanced experience with Maya.

• Comfortable in a range of content creation software including Photoshop, Substance Designer/Painter, Zbrush/Mudbox, etc.

• Strong problem-solving, interpersonal and communication skills, all with a close attention to detail.

Bonus (Not essential to the role but would help differentiate candidates):

• Maya modeling and rigging experience.

• Houdini / FX / Niagara experience.

• Scripting & programming skills with Python, C#, Javascript and C++.

• Experience optimizing content through profiling and diagnostic tools.
