• 5+ years of professional animation experience in games.
• Strong portfolio/reel demonstrating both Skeleton (character/enemy) and UI animation experience.

• Strong understanding of Unity - engine limitations, best practices, and what can/can’t be done in-engine.
• Ability to prototype quickly, iterate, and explore creative ideas.
• Strong understanding of how animation enhances game feel, UX clarity, and feedback.
• Experience with shader animation, procedural animation, or VFX would be a bonus.

• Animate 2D (or 2.5D) characters, enemies, and UI elements (buttons, panels, screens) using cutout, frame-by-frame, or hybrid techniques.
• Create expressive, gameplay-centric animations that support readability and game feel.
• Design and implement visual feedback, micro-interactions, and motion polish.
• Collaborate with artists, designers, and developers to integrate animations seamlessly.
