About the role

We’re seeking a talented and versatile Senior Artist (or a skilled mid-level/junior) to join our creative team. In this role, you’ll contribute across the full art pipeline – from concept and modelling to animation, UI, and marketing visuals – helping bring new games and ideas to life.

You’ll work closely with developers, designers, and other artists to create high-quality, stylized visuals that enhance gameplay and player experience. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working broadly across disciplines and thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where respect, openness, and shared ownership are key.

Key responsibilities

• Design and produce 2D and 3D game assets, animations, UI, and VFX

• Contribute to the visual development of new games and features from concept to final polish

• Create marketing and branding materials, including visuals for events and campaigns

• Support junior artists by offering feedback and mentorship when needed

• Collaborate with developers to ensure assets are smoothly integrated into the game

• Occasionally support other areas like sound, localization, and testing

• Stay up to date with new tools, workflows, and creative approaches

Key requirements

• Strong portfolio demonstrating 2D and 3D skills, with a focus on stylized, non-realistic art

• Proficiency in Photoshop and at least one 3D tool (e.g. Blender, Maya, ZBrush)

• Solid understanding of animation principles and visual design fundamentals

• Experience with the full art pipeline: modeling, skinning, animation, rendering

• Collaborative mindset and excellent communication skills

• Passion for games and visual storytelling

• Open to exploring tools like AI to support creativity and workflow – without compromising artistic integrity

• Fluent in English (Swedish is a plus)

• Available to work from our office in Gothenburg

Nice-to-haves

These aren’t requirements, so don’t hesitate to apply even if you don’t check every box. That said, any of the following would be a great bonus:

• At least 2 years of professional experience in a game development environment

• Experience working with Spine or similar tools for 2D animation

• Familiarity with the visual style, themes, and tone of casino or slot games

• Previous involvement in branding or marketing initiatives – such as producing promotional visuals or event graphics

• Interest in supporting other creative areas, like sound design or gameplay testing

What we offer

At Solidicon, you’ll join a workplace built on respect, collaboration, and shared creativity. We believe in empowering one another, making decisions together, and maintaining a positive, open atmosphere where ideas are always welcome, no matter how bold.

You’ll also enjoy:

• Competitive salary and bonus program

• Private health insurance and yearly health checkup
