Key Responsibilities:

Create and refine keyframe animations for characters and objects.
Polish existing animations to ensure high-quality, natural movement.
Work with animations inside Unreal Engine, including importing and setting them up.
Optimize and troubleshoot animation-related issues in UE.
Collaborate with riggers, technical artists, and designers to ensure smooth pipeline integration.

Requirements:

Strong keyframe animation skills – this is the main focus.
Experience in Maya (or equivalent software) for animation creation.
Understanding of Unreal Engine animation workflows (importing, editing, working with Sequencer, Control Rig, and Animation Blueprints).
Ability to polish and refine animations to a professional level.
Knowledge of Motion Capture processing is a plus but not a core requirement.

What We Offer:

Flexible schedule – quality and deadlines are the priority.
Work on high-profile game projects and trailers.
Opportunity to grow and contribute to AAA projects.
Compensation is negotiable based on experience.
