Senior 3D Animator

We are looking for a Senior 3D Animator to join the development of our flagship game, Oxide: Survival Island. You will be responsible for creating high-quality first-person and third-person animations for weapons, characters and in-game objects, while collaborating closely with designers, artists, and technical teams to bring immersive gameplay experiences to life.

What You'll Be Doing:

Why You'll Enjoy Working With Us:

* Interesting weapon work: both real-world firearms, and fantasy skins, including upgradeable skins and progression lines.

* We're always looking for a fresh visual take and growing the artistic side of the team, so your ideas about how animation should look and feel have a real place here.

* We explore and adopt new technologies and tools in our pipeline instead of working by inertia.

* We provide all the software, plugins, AI tools, and asset libraries you need for your work.

* High autonomy: we trust your expertise and don't micromanage.

What We Expect From You:

* 5+ years of experience in animation production.

* A strong portfolio showcasing different types of animation.

* Experience working with keyframe animation.

* Experience animating first-person and third-person weapons.

* Professional experience working with Maya.

* Strong understanding of animation principles, including posing, timing, and a sense of weight.

* Understanding of how animation systems function inside game engines.

* English - B1+ level, Russian - C1 level.

A Strong Plus:

* Experience working with mocap animation.

* Experience with character emotes and body mechanics.

* Experience working on shooters or survival games.

What We Offer:

* Competitive salary.

* Remote work format.

* A passionate and supportive team that values creativity and ownership.
