The Hay Day team is now looking for a 2D Game Artist who can create in-game ready assets independently while also being able to contribute with concepts and collaborating with outsourcing partners. We are not looking for just any artist, but a Game Artist that loves, plays, lives and breathes games. Your portfolio oozes in quality and polish and indicates a determination to push boundaries and create kick-ass game art. You will be surrounded by people who will help you become a better game developer each day, inspire you and push you to break mobile games as we know them today. And you will also do the same to the people you are working with.
We offer everyone an equal chance to impact the final result. Our teams are small and agile, and we strongly believe in the creative freedom of an artist. At Supercell you have a chance to join a company of true professionals. We do not believe in unnecessary bureaucracy, nor are there any solo artists. We are all driven and goal-oriented individuals that contribute to a common cause. If these are values that you are passionate about, then you might just be the Artist we are looking for. Supercell structure is also based on the idea of having small, independent teams. Small teams allow us to build, break and shift quickly, but they also require that everyone on the team fills multiple roles. Working as an artist at Supercell is not an exception to this, and our Game Artists typically have the skills of a generalist and shift their focus area based on the game they work on.
Working on the number one farming game for mobile is a ton of fun! The Hay Day team is focused on creating the best possible experience for the players, improving the game as often as possible and consulting player feedback at every turn. There is so much we can add to the game, and so many things we can do, that not a day goes by without a decision to make. If this all sounds appealing to you, then you might be just the team member we are looking for!
