? We're Hiring: Founding Game Artist – Equity Basis ? | Remote | India

Are you a game artist who loves not just creating assets, but thinking about why a game looks, feels, and performs the way it does?

We're looking for a Founding Game Artist to join us at an early stage and take complete ownership of the art across our game portfolio.

This isn't a traditional job.

We're looking for someone with intermediate or above-level skills across 2D + 3D game art , who understands the visual language of F2P mobile games and wants to grow into a leadership role as we scale.

? Role Overview:

- ? Remote
- ? India-based candidates only
- ? Equity-based — actual ownership, not ESOPs
- ⏳ Commitment: Up to ~28 hours/week

- This is the significant part: You are not receiving ESOPs OR SALARY at the time being.
- You are joining as an early member of the organisation with actual equity, making you a partial owner of the company.
- You will have the opportunity to build alongside us rather than simply work for us.

What Happens When We Start Scaling?

- Until we're profitable or have sufficient investment, this role is equity-based with a commitment of up to ~28 hours/week.




- You decide how you want to distribute those hours across the week.
- Once we become profitable or raise sufficient investment, we intend to onboard you on a full-time basis, with compensation aligned to the best market fit at that point.
- The exact full-time role and compensation will depend on the company's stage, funding, market conditions and your contribution at that time.
