You will join our Art team on Europa Universalis V as a hands-on 2D/UI artist, creating UI elements, icons, art assets and illustrations, and implementing them in the game. You will be the bridge between UX and the 2D art team, turning wireframes and design intent into UI that looks great, stays consistent in style and is easy for the player to understand.
We ship updates on a regular cadence, so you will work on a steady flow of content rather than one big asset at a time. At our studio everyone is a designer: you will work closely with the Managing Art Lead, Content Design and UI, and you will have a real say in how the game looks and feels.
Create 2D art for Europa Universalis V across the game: illustrations, icons, UI elements and other art assets, and implement them in the game.
Work with Content Design, UI and the other artists to understand each request and find the right visual solution for the player, without needing it spelled out step by step.
If you see a way to make the art clearer, the pipeline faster or the game look better, propose it and push it.
Keep the art consistent in style, readable and accessible, with a meticulous eye for detail and high‑quality artwork.
Professional experience as a 2D or UI artist, ideally 3+ years in games, with a strong portfolio to show it.
Great knowledge of digital painting software such as Photoshop.




An understanding of UX principles and the ability to work closely with designers to create the best possible player experience.
Clear, direct communication in English, written and spoken.
At Paradox Tinto we work in a small, gameplay focused team, where everyone is part of crafting the player experience and has input on the design of the game. We believe game development should be fun, and we strive for a relaxed, stress‑free atmosphere. Your contributions matter to us, to the whole studio, and to the games we make. We will encourage you to interact with our players directly through social media, our forum, and via streams. Our office is 300m from one of the beaches of Sitges, a picturesque Mediterranean coastal city. Sitges is barely 20 minutes by car or bus from El Prat, Barcelona's international airport. It offers 17 beaches along its own coastline, the Costa del Garraf, and an average of 300 days of sun a year, which is hard to argue with for outdoor sports and weekends. The town will also captivate you with its cultural events, Mediterranean food and, of course, excellent Spanish wine.
25 working days of vacation per year (23 per the collective agreement, plus 2 extra)
~ Private health insurance
~ Wellhub subscription: gym access and digital wellbeing apps
~ A private gym at the office, plus optional free yoga and HIIT sessions
~ Free access to the full Paradox catalogue on Steam, over 100 games
