We are looking for a passionate and experienced concept artist to join our Shanghai Studio. Your focus will be on developing new concepts for the Project R.I.S.E with Clash IP. The primary responsibility in this role will be creating concept art for both new enemies and hero skins.

At Supercell, small teams that find a way to work well together have the potential to create memorable games. It’s important that each team member takes pride in their work and understands the importance of taking responsibility to deliver quality and fun to players.

As a Supercell concept artist, you'll collaborate closely with designers and other artists, transforming creative ideas into an exciting vision.

If you think that describes you, then we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Communicate characters' personalities and emotions through the character design.

• Create key art for characters’ marketing images.

What You Have

• Portfolio demonstrating high-quality, stylized character concept work.

• An ability to create functional character designs for games, and understand that art has gameplay implications and addresses visual challenges within the constraints of game design.

• Deep involvement in at least one game with stylized art direction.

• Strong understanding of Supercell IPs’ art styles.

• Proactive doer who takes responsibility and pride in their own work when given the freedom to work independently.

• Strong cross-disciplinary communication skills.

• Ability to communicate in English is a plus.

About Supercell

Supercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London. You might know us as the makers of Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, and Squad Busters. Our mission is to create great games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.

So, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings, and killing lots of projects.

Hey, You Might Love It Here!

Independent cells and trust are at the core of our culture. But it takes more than that to make great games. We take good care of our people, providing them with the compensation, work environment, and resources they need to succeed while having fun along the way.

You Are Not Your Job Title ™

Here, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.

Benefits and Compensation

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.

Relocation? Yes!

No matter where you’re moving from, our dedicated mobility team and partners will support you throughout your move. We’ll ensure the process is as smooth as possible for you and anyone joining you – whether they’re family members of the human or animal kind!

Not Sure if You Should Apply?

Many candidates with great skills and experience second-guess themselves. The bar is high, but if this role excites you, apply! We’re here to help you succeed. Also, we're happy to learn about any specific accommodations you may need to fully engage in our recruitment process.

Wishing you all the best,
The Supercell Recruitment team
