Squint/Opera Seeks Unreal Artist in Cape Town | Fixed-Term Role
Role and working arrangements
Squint/Opera, a Journey studio, is recruiting an Unreal Artist in Cape Town, South Africa. This is a full-time, fixed-term contract; its duration is not specified. The application form requires attendance at the Cape Town studio three days a week.
Work and requirements
The artist builds interactive architectural environments, prepares geometry from design software, and creates optimised assets, lighting and materials in Unreal Engine 5. Required tools include a 3D modelling package and familiarity with BIM/CAD workflows, Substance and Quixel Mixer.
The listing asks for 3+ years in real-time 3D and 3–5+ years in architectural visualisation or game environment art. An interactive walkthrough reel, rather than static renders alone, is essential.
Pay and application
The posted pay range is ZAR 420,000–600,000; the page does not specify the pay period. Applications require a CV and portfolio link through Journey’s official form. No fixed closing date is stated. The sponsorship question in that form does not itself confirm that sponsorship is offered.
