  • Translate art direction and design intent into consistent, production-ready animation
  • Prepare clean, organized animation files for engine implementation
  • Collaborate with illustrators, designers, and producers to ensure animations function smoothly in-game
  • Use generative AI tools as part of the workflow for exploration or iteration where appropriate, while maintaining quality and consistency
  • Iterate on animations based on feedback, performance considerations, and gameplay needs
  • Occasionally support marketing or promotional animations tied to game launches


What we’re looking for

  • Strong 2D animation fundamentals with a focus on timing, readability, and restraint
  • Production experience animating game content using Spine
  • Experience working on real-time games, preferably slot or casual mobile games
  • Solid understanding of technical constraints, performance, and asset optimization
  • Ability to work from briefs, references, and established style guides
  • Strong attention to detail and consistency across animation sets


Nice to have

  • Unity experience
  • Light VFX or particle animation experience
  • Familiarity with slot game mechanics and common features (reels, bonuses, jackpots)
  • Experience working with licensed IP or regulated gaming products


What success looks like

  • Animations that feel responsive, readable at speed, and cohesive across entire games
  • Assets delivered on time, cleanly organized, and ready for implementation
  • Strong collaboration with cross-functional teams and openness to iteration
  • Consistent contribution to the overall quality and feel of the game portfolio
