Senior 2D Animator (Spine)

We’re looking for a Senior Animator — someone who brings characters and worlds to life with strong style and attention to detail. You won’t just animate — you’ll define how things feel and move, shaping the overall player experience.

At this level, you’ll own animation quality, influence visual direction, and help raise the bar across the team.

We’re a team of people who left safe jobs to build something better. No bureaucracy, no pointless meetings — just sharp minds building games that stand out.

What you’ll do

• End-to-End Animation: Create fluid character animations, dynamic backgrounds, and eye-catching VFX;

• Tool Mastery: High-quality rigging and animation in Spine 2D and motion graphics in After Effects;

• Visual Style Development: Collaborate with Art Directors to define the motion language for new game themes;

• Asset Optimization: Prepare and optimize animations for seamless integration into game engines (performance matters);

• Creative Polish: Enhance player feedback through "juicy" animations that drive engagement and excitement.

Requirements

What you bring

• 5+ years of experience as a 2D Animator;

• Strong Spine 2D skills (rigging, animation);

• Experience with slot games;

• Good knowledge of After Effects and Photoshop;

• Strong understanding of animation principles;

• Basic technical understanding (optimization, draw calls);

• Portfolio with character animation and VFX.

Benefits

• 21 vacation days + 5 extra day-offs annually;

• 12 paid sick days;

• Fully remote format — work from anywhere you feel productive;

• Flexible schedule: start your day anytime between 08:00–11:00 CET;

• Fixed budget for health insurance and gym/fitness;

• Provided all required work equipment;

• Zero bureaucracy and direct communication with founders and C-level;

• Minimal meetings, async-friendly workflow;

• Startup energy: fast motion, creativity, and tight-knit communication;

• Business trips and team meetups several times per year;

• Multiple salary payout options (flexible formats);

• …And many more perks unlocked after we hit break-even.
