We're developing a game where '50s housewives battle zombies and it's already making a big splash on social media (SketchyPandaGames.Tumblr.com).

-Ability to create and polish 3D art assets, animations, and textures
-Ability to export and import art assets for use in a video game engine (Unity Pro)
-Ability to delegate to and work with other artists, including both in-company subordinates and crowd-sourced volunteers.
-Ability to work and thrive in a start-up environment, including being a self-starter, a problem solver, and a team player.
-Experience with iClone or a similar 3D animation software.
-Experience with Maya, Autodesk, Zbrush, or a similar 3D modeling software
-Ability to commit for the duration of the project, with a contract for up to 24 months from the day funding completes.
Preferred:
-Experience developing using Unity Pro.
-Past experience with a 3D gaming project.
-Experience managing other team members on a multi-phase project.
-Location in Utah or willingness to relocate.
Compensation:
-Negotiable, based on experience and skill set. Health insurance provided.

We like small, close-knit teams that collaborate as they work and have a lot of fun together. We have a lot of experience in software development, marketing, managing multi-phase projects, and figuring out how to do impossible things with minimal resources.
