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

🔍 What We're Looking For

  • ⏱️ Strong grasp of animation fundamentals: timing, spacing, squash & stretch, anticipation, follow-through
  • 🎬 Proficiency in animation software: Adobe Animate, After Effects, Spine, or Rive
  • 👁️ A keen eye for art direction — you know what looks right, what feels off
  • 👶 Sensitivity to animating for children: motion that's playful, encouraging, and never punishing
  • 🎮 Game feel awareness — your animations serve gameplay, not interrupt it
  • 🏇 Ability to work with minimal guidance — you take a brief and run with it!

⭐ Nice to Have

  • 🤖 Experience with AI animation tools or AI-assisted motion workflows
  • 🖌️ Illustration or character design ability
  • 📚 Prior experience animating for EdTech, children's products, or 2D games
  • 🔧 Understanding of animation implementation in game engines (Unity or any web-based framework)

🏢 Internship Details:

  • 💻 Remote-first work culture
  • 📆 3-month contract, with potential for full-time offer
  • 🚀 Chance to design real-world EdTech experiences used by millions
