## About the role

We are looking for a Technical Art Intern to join the Rocket League team. You will sit between our artists and engineers: building tools that speed up how content gets into the build, authoring real-time materials, and profiling scenes so the game holds frame rate everywhere from mobile to high-refresh PC. You will have an impact on real work that ships into playable builds.

## What they're looking for

- Currently enrolled in, or recently graduated from, a Technical Art, Computer Science, Digital Media, or Game Development program, or a portfolio strong enough to stand in for one
- Scripting experience in Python, C#, or a DCC scripting API. Bonus if you have written something that saved someone else time
- Hands-on with at least one 3D package (Maya, 3ds Max, or Blender) and the Substance suite
- Working knowledge of Unreal Engine
- Solid real-time rendering fundamentals: how lighting, shading, UV layout, texture memory, and poly budgets affect performance
- Genuine curiosity about performance. You like finding out why a frame is slow
