  • Advanced, hands-on experience using generative AI tools and AI-driven workflows for art production.
  • Strong artistic fundamentals, including composition, color, shape, style, and visual consistency.
  • Ability to identify weaknesses in AI-generated artwork and improve results through iteration and manual adjustments.
  • Experience with 2D art production tools and familiarity with Unity.
  • Good understanding of mobile game visuals, including readability on small screens, character appeal, UI clarity, and progression rewards.
  • Comfortable working with AI tools such as Claude, Codex, and other generative AI solutions.
  • Strong communication skills, creative problem-solving, and the ability to work independently with designers and developers.
  • A portfolio showcasing both AI-generated artwork and traditional artistic skills, ideally including examples of the creative and refinement process.
