EA SPORTS is one of the most iconic brands in entertainment - connecting hundreds of millions around the world to the sports they love through a portfolio of industry-leading video games.

The EA SPORTS Tech Art team provides specialized technology teams working on modern character articulation and motion, content pipelines and workflows, machine learning, game security, dev ops, as well as long lead feature and technology development for all EA SPORTS titles. As part of EA SPORTS Tech, the Initiatives Team pushes visual boundaries and experiences for our players. We invest in future technologies, shared tooling, and production workflows. We combine creativity and imagination with technical expertise. We are a diverse group that encourages team members to bring their unique perspectives and expertise to work every day.


The Role
We are looking for a Senior Technical Artist to bridge the gap between creative vision and technical execution. In this role, you will act as a force multiplier for art teams across our sports titles, designing scalable art pipelines, optimizing real-time performance, and developing innovative workflows for characters, environments, lighting, or VFX.
Reporting to a Technical Art Directo, you will lead complex technical initiatives, mentor junior and mid-level technical artists, and collaborate closely with Rendering Engineers, Art Directors, and Tools Developers to push the boundaries of visual fidelity in sports games.

Key Responsibilities
  • Pipeline & Tool Development: Architect, build, and maintain robust, scalable art creation and content integration pipelines using Python, C#, or DCC scripting (Maya, Houdini, Blender).
  • Performance & Optimization: Lead runtime performance profiling (GPU/CPU, memory, draw calls) across current and next-gen hardware platforms, establishing performance budgets and best practices for art teams.
  • Engine Integration: Deeply integrate procedural workflows, complex shaders, rigging systems, and visual effects into our proprietary engine.
  • Cross-Discipline Collaboration: Work as a primary liaison between artists and software engineers—translating creative needs into technical specifications and engineering requirements into user-friendly art tools.
  • Technical Leadership & Mentorship: Guide and mentor mid and junior-level technical artists, advocate for best practices, and contribute to standardizing technical art workflows across the Sports Tech organization.
  • R&D & Innovation: Prototype new rendering techniques, procedural content generation setups, and digital human or apparel workflows to elevate visual realism across our titles.

Qualifications
  • Experience: 6+ years of professional experience in video game production or visual effects, with at least 3+ years in a Technical Art role.
  • Engine Expertise: Deep experience working with modern game engines (e.g., Unreal Engine, Unity, or proprietary AAA engines) with a strong understanding of rendering pipelines, lighting, materials, and asset assembly.
  • DCC Proficiency: Advanced expertise in Maya and/or Houdini, including scripting and tool creation.
  • Programming/Scripting: Strong skills in Python (PySide/PyQt for GUI development is a plus) and familiarity with HLSL/GLSL shader languages or visual shader graphs.
  • Performance Profiling: Proven track record of optimizing game performance using profiling tools (RenderDoc, PIX, Razor, or engine-native profilers).
  • Problem-Solving & Communication: Outstanding communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
Desirable / Bonus Skills
  • Experience with procedural workflows (Houdini Engine / PCG).
  • Experience with character technical art (rigging, skinning, cloth dynamics, or facial pipelines).
  • Familiarity with modern sports tech domains (stadium generation, dynamic crowd systems, realistic biomechanics, or apparel capture).
  • Background in C++ development or extending DCC plugins.
