As a Vehicle Technical Artist at CIG, you'll be part of a team creating high-fidelity vehicle assets for Star Citizen and Squadron 42.  Responsibilities include hands-on implementation, performance optimization, rigging, skinning, asset markup, and supporting the vehicle content team. You will work closely with art and programming teams, develop and improve pipelines using tools like 3DS Max, MaxScript, and Python, and investigate new techniques. The role involves bringing ships to life through animation and physics tuning, and ensuring assets are technically sound for use in the games.  CIG has a reputation for creating complex, characterful vehicles that are more like mini-game levels, and you'll be contributing to their already impressive library of nearly one hundred ships.

We are developing Star Citizen and Squadron 42 across 5 studios in Los Angeles, Austin, Manchester, and Frankfurt.

The role demands thorough knowledge of character integration into a UE5 project using state machine control, including debugging and refinement. Proficiency in UE5 animation systems (state machines, animation graphs, blend trees, blueprints) is crucial.  While animation and rigging skills and Maya/scripting experience are beneficial, they are not mandatory. The ideal candidate is a team player open to feedback.
