Role Overview

We’re seeking a

talented, production-tested 3D Animator

to craft expressive, gameplay-ready animations that feel great on mobile. You’ll own animation quality for characters and props, collaborate closely with Art, Design, and Engineering, and ensure smooth integration in

Unity . You’re equally comfortable with acting choices and with the technical details that make animations read clearly and run efficiently on the device.

What You’ll Do

Own animation quality

for assigned characters / creatures / props—from blocking to polish and in-engine integration.

Tell clear, readable stories

through performance, posing, timing, and silhouette—optimized for small screens.

Plan shots and systems :

create reference, previs / blocking, iterate based on playtest feedback, and maintain consistency with style guides.

Integrate in-engine :

set up state machines / blend trees, root motion, transitions, IK, and events; troubleshoot import / export.

Optimize for mobile :

manage key density, curve cleanup, clip length, memory footprint, and runtime performance.

Collaborate and lead by influence :

partner with Tech Art and Engineering to resolve rig / retarget issues; present in dailies, give / receive actionable feedback.

Pipeline stewardship :

document best practices; help improve tools, checklists, and naming conventions.

(Senior)

Mentor juniors, review reels / shots, and help maintain the bar for animation quality across the project.

Must-Have Qualifications

3–6+ years

of professional 3D character animation experience in games (mobile experience strongly preferred).

Expert grasp

of animation principles and

body mechanics

(weight, balance, timing, overlap).

Strong DCC skills : Autodesk

Max / Blender.

Game engine fluency :

Unity

(anim blueprints / state machines, blend spaces, root motion, notifies / events).

Technical savvy :

retargeting, FBX pipelines, naming standards, version control basics, and troubleshooting broken rigs / exports.

Cinematic sense :

camera, lensing, staging, and composition to support gameplay readability.

Communication & ownership :

clear written / verbal communication, comfort presenting WIP, and on-time delivery.

Nice-to-Haves

Rigging familiarity

(fixing minor skin / weights, constraints, corrective shapes).

Creature / vehicle

animation, combat loops, hit reactions, traversal, and locomotion sets.

Mocap

cleanup and

AI-assisted

workflows (e.g., reference generation, pose suggestion, curve cleanup) are used judiciously for speed without sacrificing quality.

Experience with

procedural systems , physics-based secondary motion, or runtime IK.

Portfolio Requirements (Mandatory)

Reel link

showcasing game-ready work : acting shots, locomotion sets, combat loops, cycles, and at least one

engine-integrated

example (Unity / Unreal capture preferred).

Shot breakdowns : your role, tools used, rig / source ownership, and specific contributions.

Bonus : before / after optimization examples (curve cleanup, key reduction, performance gains).

What We Offer

Work in a studio with

end-to-end P&L ownership

of games and real product impact.

Competitive salary and

Performance-Linked Incentives .

Full medical, accident, and life insurance; generous

maternity / paternity leave .

Active Employee Resource Groups – Women at Zapak.

Frequent employee events.

Collaborative and learning-focused culture.
