Job Description
2D Game Animator – AI-Powered EdTech Games | Fully Remote
We're hiring an animator to bring our game characters and UI to life. If you can make a character feel alive in two seconds of motion, turn a static screen into something that breathes, and make a wrong answer feel okay — we want to hear from you.
🎯 What You'll Do
- 🐰 Animate game characters — idle loops, reactions, celebrations, transitions, and everything that gives a character personality
- ✨ Create UI and feedback animations — screen transitions, correct/incorrect states, progress moments, micro-interactions
- 🎮 Upgrade existing rough animations into polished, production-ready motion
- 🌟 Design animation that serves learning — making correct answers feel rewarding and wrong answers feel safe to try again
- 🎨 Help develop animation style references and motion guidelines for new game projects
- 🤖 Explore AI animation tools to accelerate workflows and experiment with new techniques
