We are looking for Unreal Engine 5 masterminds

Do you have a strong passion for implementing gamification using Unreal Engine 5 to create future virtual experiences?

We are seeking two candidates:

Unreal Mastermind Designer and Unreal Mastermind Developer.

We are looking for individuals with a broad knowledge of Unreal Engine 5 and blueprints. A good understanding of the technical aspects of lighting and environment building is a plus. We offer a position where research & development is one of the cornerstones and you will be able to use a lot of time to create things that you think will be the next creative solution for our customers. Our projects are often displayed at exhibitions around the world with VR, AR, or touch displays. We are aiming to connect physical machines to the animations to take the experience to the next level.

Here at NPG we also have a Green Screen Virtual Studio that allows us to combine UE5 with physical cameras and lights for a full virtual production setup. Our goal is to give our customers innovative experiences that they didn’t think were possible. The work takes place in close dialogue with 3D designers, developers, videographers, and other creative employees.
