Atom Switch, Inc. is hiring for a Senior Environment Artist position for our debut title: INFESTSTATION.
Do derelict sci-fi spaces excite you? Does the mention of grates, cables, paneling and hard surface design elicit an instinctual need to reach for a motion sensor and seal up the nearest airlock?
We’re looking for a senior-level environment artist to take ownership of interior kit building and environment construction for the game, focusing heavily on spacecraft interiors in Unreal Engine 5 with the expectation of a December 2022 or January 2023 start date (date is flexible and/or can be accelerated for the right candidate).

About Us
Atom Switch, Inc. is a small team of experienced game developers making our dream game – INFESTSTATION -a cooperative, PvE dystopian sci-fi game made in Unreal Engine 5. Backed by investor funding, we have none of the frustrating constraints of a traditional publisher-funded development model. With total agency over the game’s design and no needless push for micro-transactions or other “profits over quality” mandates, we are making a game for ourselves as much as for our players.
We have no room or tolerance for jerks, “alpha” personalities, or glory hounds. As everyone on the team has a voice and real, tangible ownership over the design of the game, we especially love cross-discipline backgrounds and emphasize cooperation over competition.
Lets Work Together!
