Ainsworth Game Technology is a globally recognised company focused on the design, development and manufacturing of Electronic Gaming Machines (slot/pokies).
We are looking for a Game Artist to join our Graphics Development team on a full-time basis, with hybrid flexibility, based at our head office in Newington (Sydney, NSW).
Position Summary:
The Game Artist reports to the Graphics Development Manager and will play a crucial role in designing and developing high-quality, visually engaging art assets for our casino games. This role is ideal for an artist with strong graphic design and composition skills who excels in layout, typography, visual hierarchy, and branding, and has experience leveraging AI-powered tools to generate and refine high-quality visual assets. While animation experience is a plus, we welcome applications from strong digital artists who may not yet have animation experience but are eager to learn and expand into motion and AI-assisted animation workflows.
What You'll Do:
- Collaborate with senior artists in the Art Department on the design and development of art assets for both existing and current slot games.
- Design and create high-quality 2D art assets, including logos, brand elements, layouts, backgrounds, symbols and UI elements, ensuring consistency with each game’s art direction.
- Use AI-assisted workflows to generate concept art, variations, visual effects, and animation elements while ensuring originality and quality.
- Refine and polish AI-generated outputs in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects to meet studio standards.
- Refine and iterate existing game art assets to meet new game requirements and specifications, including adapting and porting games for different jurisdictions and markets.
- Iterate on assets based on feedback, playtesting insights, and performance considerations.
Knowledge and Skills:
- Ideally, candidates will have experience in the casino gaming industry, with a minimum of 2 years' professional experience preferred.
However, applicants with strong portfolios and demonstrated AI-driven workflows may be considered even without direct industry experience.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent in art, design, animation, or a related field is considered an asset but not required.
- AI Art Proficiency: Demonstrated experience using AI-powered tools (such as Google Labs, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Firefly, Runway, ComfyUI, or similar) to generate and enhance digital art assets.
- AI Prompting Skills: Ability to craft effective prompts, guide stylistic outputs, and refine results into production-ready artwork.
- Adobe Creative Suite: Comfortable using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects for final asset production and polish.
- Artistic Skills: Strong artistic fundamentals with the ability to create visually compelling 2D assets, including logos, layouts, backgrounds, and symbols.
- Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating game art, digital artwork, graphic design, and animation or motion work - showcasing creativity, versatility, and attention to detail.
- Detail-Oriented: Exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and visual consistency.
- Communication: Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to give and receive constructive feedback effectively.
- Organisation: Strong organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and adapt to changing project needs.
What's in it for you?
- A global business with endless career possibilities around every corner and across every discipline.
- Access to our Employee Assistance Program Acacia. Acacia provides free confidential 24/7 personalised financial, medical safety, psychological or physical support for team members and their families.
