  • Build a variety of animation asset types and help others to do so
  • Understand typical performance bottlenecks in animation and assist licensees in resolving them
  • Provide mentorship and coaching to team members

    • What we're looking for

  • User-focused, passionate, self-sufficient, solutions-focused, and innovative. These traits equal success at Epic and influence everything we do
  • Experience working with a wide range of Unreal Engine animation assets such as animation blueprints, control rigs, IK retargeting, level sequences, ML deformer, deformer graph, etc.
  • Experience building DCC and pipeline tools
  • Strong written/verbal communication skills including the ability to train others, or give technical presentations to audiences with varying technical backgrounds
  • Self-motivated individual who will take ownership of the technical relationship with developers and work proactively to reduce friction and improve processes
  • Professional experience with Unreal Engine 5, particularly the animation pipeline
  • Knowledge of Maya, MotionBuilder, Blender and/or other DCC applications
  • Experience rigging characters either in Unreal Engine and DCC tools
  • Experience with Motion Matching
  • Prior developer relations experience is a bonus
