Job Description
We're hiring an animation intern to bring our game characters and UI to life. If you can make a character feel alive in two seconds of motion, turn a static screen into something that breathes, and make a wrong answer feel okay — we want to hear from you.
Requirements
- Strong grasp of animation fundamentals: timing, spacing, squash & stretch, anticipation, follow-through
- Proficiency in animation software: Adobe Animate, After Effects, Spine, or Rive
- A keen eye for art direction — you know what looks right, what feels off
- Sensitivity to animating for children: motion that's playful, encouraging, and never punishing
- Game feel awareness — your animations serve gameplay, not interrupt it
- Ability to work with minimal guidance — you take a brief and run with it!
- Experience with AI animation tools or AI-assisted motion workflows
- Illustration or character design ability
- Prior experience animating for EdTech, children's products, or 2D games
- Understanding of animation implementation in game engines (Unity or any web-based framework)
Benefits
- Fully remote work environment
- 6-month internship, with potential for full-time offer
- Stipend: ₹20,000 – ₹30,000/month
- Chance to design real-world EdTech experiences used by millions
