Are you a passionate character animator with a knack for bringing stylized characters to life? Do you dream of crafting expressive, dynamic animations in a rich 3D fantasy world? An innovative indie game studio is looking for you to help shape their upcoming 3D platformer RPG – a single-player experience packed with exploration, story, and satisfying combat.
We're partnering with this growing studio to find a skilled animator who can rig and animate characters for Unreal Engine, with a strong focus on melee combat and fighting animation. If you’ve got a solid background in game development, an eye for expressive movement, and you’re excited to collaborate on a fresh new IP, let’s talk.
What You’ll Do:
Rig and skin 3D characters for animation and implementation in Unreal Engine
Animate fluid, stylized movement and melee combat sequences for enemies and the player character
Collaborate with the design and programming teams to ensure animations enhance gameplay feel
Own the character animation pipeline from concept to in-engine polish
Solve technical animation challenges and optimize rigs for performance
What We’re Looking For:
Proven experience rigging and animating characters for video games (shipped titles a big plus!)
Strong portfolio demonstrating melee combat animations
Deep experience with Unreal Engine animation systems (State Machines, Anim Blueprints, etc.)
Solid knowledge of rigging tools like Maya, Blender, or similar
Understanding of gameplay mechanics and how animation supports player experience
Passion for video games and a gamer’s intuition for what feels good in-game
Self-starter mindset; able to work independently in a remote team environment
Work from Anywhere
This is a fully remote position. The team collaborates across time zones – we welcome candidates from anywhere in the world.
About the Game
Think vibrant worlds, tight platforming, and engaging combat in a stylized 3D fantasy setting. This is an original IP built with heart, creativity, and a clear vision. Join a small, passionate team that values quality, player experience, and creative freedom.
