- Able to effectively manage direct reports and help them with their day-to-day tasks.
- Strong understanding of the performance implications of open-world development on consoles and PCs.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to effectively balance the needs of game design, art, and programming.
- Experience working on a wide range of tech art projects, regarding art tools, graphics engines, and game hardware.
- High level of proficiency with 2D and 3D art tools including, but not limited to: Maya, ZBrush, Houdini, Substance Designer/Painter, World Machine, and other state-of-the-art DCC tools.

**Desirable**
- Be able to work comfortably with common scripting languages (MAXScript, MEL script, Python, etc.)
- Excellent problem-solving skills and debugging abilities.
- Able to present (internally and externally) a clear vision of how work addresses problems and requirements.
