JOB OVERVIEW

We're after a Spine animator who makes characters breathe, symbols pop, and wins feel like an event.

Remote, full-time, part-time.

What you'll do

1. Animate characters, symbols and scenes in Spine

Bring assets to life believable plasticity, emotion, reactions and secondary motion across slots.

2. Animate UI, effects and micro-interactions

Buttons, panels, win states and pop-up effects that stay snappy in fast-paced gameplay.

3. Prep and rig assets

Structure layers, rig characters, and turn raw art from the 2D team into clean, animation-ready Spine skeletons.

4. Work with game artists and producers

Shape how characters move and behave features, special modes, and the "hit" moments that matter: spin, win, super win.

5. Export and optimize

Lean skeletons and clean, correctly looping cycles that run smooth in-engine.

6. Document your motion

Clear notes on movement logic, character structure, states and interactions, so the work is easy to pick up and extend.

7. Support trailers and marketing

Animation pieces for promo videos, splash screens and key-visual motion.

Who we're looking for

Spine experience required

Commercial experience in gaming or iGaming (freelance counts)

Strong character and UI animation skills

Solid grasp of motion principles anticipation, squash & stretch, timing, weight

Skeletal optimization know-how

Animation portfolio / showreel required
