- Collaborate closely with artists and developers to maintain consistent quality, visual style, and production workflows.
- Troubleshoot and resolve texture, decal, material, and other livery-related issues within the simulator pipeline.
- Research and interpret reference materials to accurately reproduce aircraft markings, colors, branding, and visual details.
- Manage assigned work efficiently and deliver high-quality assets within agreed deadlines.
