Fuse Games. A love of games and a love of making games.

We understand deeply how games are made from the simple starting point of a one-line idea, through concept, prototyping, pre-production and large scale, multi hundred-person development teams.?

This understanding is underpinned by the huge value of building high performing teams. We work hard to lead, grow, develop and fuse our people together with a clear vision and aligned constraints that are guided by our shared values. Bringing energetic, creative collaboration with a sense of urgency is essential to everything that we do.

At Fuse it's important for us all to create a space for everyone to feel safe and included in order to be responsibly open, generous and to be their best selves. We encourage curiosity to embrace diverse perspectives, being humble and leading by example.

An Exciting Opportunity:

We are looking for creative, collaborative, and passionate people with a growth mindset to help us build amazing games. For us, software is key, and we need talented folks who are happiest in engine exploring, ideating, sharing and with a sense of urgency. The games industry is an ever-evolving fast moving one, so we would love to have people on board who are not afraid to adapt, grow their skills and push both themselves and how we make games at Fuse.

What a VFX Artist does at Fuse Games:

As a VFX Artist at Fuse you will create wonderous and emotive visual effects that tell a story and drive the fidelity of our games to new heights - from simple and subtle elements to breath-taking hero moments! While you are a specialist in your area, you are also someone who likes to get involved in multiple areas and loves to be in-engine.

VFX add the final finesse to the game while also helping the player understand and experience the world we have created. As such you play a pivotal role in collaborating with other disciplines such as lighting, environment art, graphics engineers and level designers to create an amazing game experience.

We are looking for talented people with a growth mindset and must be highly competent in these areas:
Setup, integration, and troubleshooting of Niagara VFX and materials in UE5
Strong understanding of physical behaviour and timing of VFX
Delivering VFX for AAA games, TV or Film
Shading and Optimisation techniques for VFX
Unreal Blueprint setup and troubleshooting
Creating high quality in-game and cutscene VFX

Additional attributes we also appreciate:

You do not have to be all things to all people; however, your art skills will establish you as a credible art leader. This is a mix of:
A positive can-do attitude
Ability to take initiative and produce results
A strong portfolio of work demonstrating both realistic and stylised VFX
Experience with fluid simulation tools (e.g., Embergen or Houdini) would be fantastic
Love of art and games
Ability to collaborate effectively with a talented team
Passion for pushing innovation, visual quality, and production techniques
Ability to understand and master version control software like perforce and git
What's in it for you? Glad you asked!

We acknowledge that it takes world-class people to make world-class games, so we offer competitive compensation packages and a culture that thrives off of creativity and individuality.

We know we're making games differently now and understand that family is important so offer flexible working hours and a hybrid culture that allows everyone to find the right work/life balance.

In addition, we want people to grow and expand their horizons so we promote a culture of learning and offer opportunities for people to learn new skills.
