Job Description

This job might no longer be available.

Remote possible, bonus points for being located in San Francisco, CA or Portland, OR.

Elsewhere is hiring a 3D Character Animator to work with us on our upcoming live service roguelike game. Our game captures the aesthetic and soul of indie games, the replayability and depth of roguelikes, and the ambition to become a forever game that reaches millions of players.

As a 3D Character Animator, you’ll work closely with our Founding Artist to create animation loops for newly modeled characters, as well as helping to further develop existing animations.

This position is for an ongoing contract, ranging from 20-40 hrs/week depending on business needs.

Your Qualifications:

  • Proficiency with Blender 4.0+, particularly with rigging and animation
  • Eagerness to share messy block-outs and in-progress animation
  • Excited to work closely with a small and highly communicative team of game developers
  • Comfort with being on video calls
  • Familiarity with multiplayer action-games and roguelikes
  • A love for games in general. You’re well-versed in everything from modern indie and AAA hits to the old school pioneers that inspired them.

Bonus points for:

  • Blender modeling proficiency
  • Familiarity with Godot engine
  • Experience working on a small team, ideally in a startup environment.
  • Solid visual design intuition

About us:

We have a deep bench of talent from diverse backgrounds and have been backed by top Silicon Valley investors. We’re an idealistic team that loves video games and deeply believes in their potential: both as a creative medium and as a way for us to socialize and play together.

Your colleagues would include:

  • An indie game-developer who launched a successful kick-starter game
  • A self-taught immersive artist who bootstrapped an alternate reality game into a successful entertainment studio
  • An artist who achieved notoriety through a faithful solo-recreation of an old Nintendo game
  • A repeat entrepreneur who previously cofounded a billion-dollar startup
