Feel supported on all fronts. Not only can you count on your team to help you solve the most creative of challenges, but we’ve also got you covered with generous health and dental coverage and ample time off starting from day one.  

 

How You’ll Spend Your Days: 

  • Share your knowledge and experience with the Engineering, Art, and Design teams to help define the animation style, create previews, and present innovative solutions.  

  • Create compelling character performances through expert keyframe animation, showcasing how the game's artistic vision is in perfect harmony with its design.  

  • Push the gaming experience further by proactively identifying and resolving technical and animation issues. 

What You Offer: 

  • A minimum of 12 years of experience in animation on AA or AAA games, four of which having been spent working with Unreal Engine.  

  • A bachelor's degree or college diploma in animation, art or equivalent training or experience. 

  • Exceptional keyframe animation skills.
