We're looking for a versatile 2D Game Artist to create and own art across ABCmouse — one of the world's most beloved early learning apps. Our house style is bright, expressive, and unmistakably kid-friendly, and you'll be central to maintaining and extending it. 2D is the core of this role; a working understanding of 3D is a plus. You're a self-starter who takes real ownership of your work, drives it to completion, and raises your hand when something needs to happen — without waiting to be asked.
Responsibilities- Create stylized, family-friendly 2D art: characters, props, environments, UI, coloring pages, thumbnails, banners, and in-game reward art within the ABCmouse house style
- Casual games experience a plus
- Build and iterate on interactive 2D animations in Rive for our Flutter-based game pipeline
- Own assigned areas of the product from brief to ship — managing your workload, hitting deadlines, and holding a high bar for quality
- Use a mix of Art (Adobe) and AI-assisted tools to generate illustrated content datasets at scale
- Export and optimize assets for cross-platform mobile delivery (iOS, Android, Fire OS, web)
- Apply a working knowledge of 3D to support or lightly contribute to 3D content as needed
- Proactively identify pipeline gaps and propose improvements
- Collaborate with curriculum, product, and engineering; participate in creative reviews and incorporate feedback quickly
- 6+ years of professional 2D game art, illustration, or UI art in a production environment
- Portfolio demonstrating a cute, stylized, family-friendly art style consistent with ABCmouse
- Proven ability to own work end to end without constant direction — self-directed, accountable, and reliable
- Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for mobile-optimized asset production
- Experience with an interactive animation tool (Rive, Spine, or equivalent)
- Working familiarity with 3D — enough to review assets or contribute lightly within an existing pipeline
- Clear communicator who surfaces blockers early and keeps collaborators informed
- Eager to learn new tools and pipelines, including AI-assisted workflows
- Portfolio examples in children's media, ed-tech, or stylized game art
- Direct Rive experience, including interactive state machines
- Hands-on 3D experience (Blender, Maya, or similar) in a stylized or toon-shaded aesthetic
- Experience using AI image generation tools (Scenario, Midjourney, Firefly) in production
- Familiarity with Flutter app art requirements and PNG/SVG optimization
- Experience in ed-tech, children's entertainment, or mission-driven creative work
- Figma proficiency for design handoff
- Experience with Frame.io or similar review and asset-management platforms
The estimated salary range for a new hire in this position is below. Salary may vary depending on job-related factors, including knowledge, skills, experience, and location.
