About Iconic Interactive
Iconic Interactive is an AI-native game development and research studio exploring the future of interactive entertainment, digital actors, and intelligent worlds. We are looking for a versatile Mid-Level Generalist Artist to join our growing creative team.
This role is ideal for an artist who enjoys working across multiple disciplines, from modelling and texturing through to look development, world-building, realtime implementation, and experimental AI-assisted workflows.
You should be comfortable operating in a fast-moving prototyping environment and collaborating closely with designers, engineers, technical artists, and AI researchers.
Although we are an AI-native studio, we strongly value human creativity, artistic authorship, and craft. Our work combines advanced AI systems with carefully authored art direction, storytelling, design, and world-building created by real artists and developers. Projects such as The Oversight Bureau reflect our belief that strong artistic vision and human creativity remain central to the future of interactive entertainment.
We are particularly interested in enthusiastic, proactive, positive individuals who are capable of self-starting, organising their own work, and contributing constructively within a collaborative team environment. We value people with a strong can-do attitude who are comfortable taking ownership and helping drive ideas forward.
