À propos de ce poste Senior 3D Animator & Rigger (Unreal Engine) chez Xsolla

Xsolla · Serbia
ABOUT YOU
 

We’re looking for a Senior 3D Animator & Rigger who is passionate about creating realistic, high-quality animations and technically complex rigs for real-time projects. You enjoy working at the intersection of animation and tech — bringing characters and creatures to life while building the systems that support them.

You have a strong understanding of animal movement and behavior, and you’re comfortable taking ownership of the full animation process — from crafting believable motion to implementing and fine-tuning it in Unreal Engine.

You’re also confident on the technical side: working with MetaHuman rigs, exploring facial animation workflows (including MetaHuman Animator), and building advanced rigs for animals, including muscle simulation. Whether using existing auto-rig tools or developing custom solutions, you’re able to adapt your approach to fit the needs of the project.
