// JOB DESCRIPTION

**Responsibilities**

We’re looking for someone who understands how to push visuals in UE5 without killing performance. The goal is to match the look we’ve been showcasing while keeping things optimized for multiplayer.

Set up and refine lighting across multiple environments (day/night, biomes, interiors)

Work with Lumen, shadows, fog, and post-processing to achieve a realistic look

Optimize lighting to maintain strong FPS (reduce base pass/shadow cost, etc.)

Adjust and balance lighting for gameplay visibility, not just visuals

Collaborate with our team to match the visual direction we’ve already established

Identify problem areas in performance and fix them without sacrificing quality

**Qualifications**

Strong experience with Unreal Engine 5 lighting systems (Lumen, GI, shadows, PPV)

Solid understanding of performance optimization in UE5

Ability to match a target visual style from references

Experience working in multiplayer environments is a plus

Comfortable working independently and communicating progress clearly

Portfolio showing lighting work (realistic environments preferred)

**How to Apply**

Send over your portfolio along with any relevant UE5 work. If you’ve done lighting work, include before/after comparisons if possible. Also include your Discord so we can reach out directly.
