Inviox Studios is looking for a VFX Artist specialized exclusively in super hyper-realistic visual effects for AAA games. This role is for artists who push realism to the edge — physically grounded effects, cinematic fidelity, and real-time performance.
This is a portfolio-first role. Stylized, cartoon, or casual VFX portfolios will not be considered.
Responsibilities
Create ultra-realistic real-time VFX (explosions, fire, smoke, debris, dust, destruction, weather, impacts)
Develop effects that are physically believable and grounded in real-world reference
Implement and optimize VFX in Unreal Engine
Work closely with Art Direction, Environment, and Gameplay teams
Ensure effects meet AAA visual quality and performance standards
Iterate quickly based on visual and technical feedback
Requirements
5+ years of professional experience as a VFX Artist in games
A strong portfolio demonstrating hyper-realistic AAA VFX
Deep understanding of real-world physics, motion, scale, and timing
Strong experience with Unreal Engine VFX workflows (Niagara)
Solid knowledge of performance optimization for real-time effects
Ability to work independently in a remote, production-driven environment
Absolute Must
Portfolio must include realistic explosions, smoke, fire, destruction, or environmental VFX
Effects must demonstrate real-time implementation, not offline-only renders
Nice to Have
Experience on shipped AAA titles
Houdini experience for realistic simulations and texture generation
Experience with destruction pipelines and large-scale effects
What We Offer
Fully remote role
Work on AAA-level, realism-driven projects
Senior, quality-focused production environment
Competitive compensation based on experience
Long-term collaboration potential
