Customer-facing Senior Technical Animator in North America

Motorica is at a breakthrough moment.

We are revolutionizing the game animation industry with products rooted in our proprietary AI models, delivering AAA-quality character animations to game studios at a fraction of the traditional cost and time. We are scaling rapidly due to early demand from major game studios.

Combining our proprietary motion capture data with state of the art diffusion models, Motorica lets teams generate dynamic, lifelike motion in minutes instead of weeks. We remove one of the biggest bottlenecks in game and cinematic production, empowering studios to focus on creativity, iteration, and building truly living worlds.

The Role

What You Will Do

• The "Trust Demo": Join pre-sales conversations to prove our technical viability, demonstrating exactly how Motorica fits into existing rigs and workflows.

• Integration Sprints: Lead hands-on "sprints" (2–4 weeks) to configure and optimize Motorica within customer pipelines (Unreal, Unity, Maya, MotionBuilder). Maybe you have worked with a customer before or been consulting?

• Pipeline Problem Solving: Act as the first line of defense for technical hurdles, solving pipeline blockers, and advising on retargeting best practices.

• Product Discovery: Be the "eyes and ears" in the field, identifying gaps and bringing back insights to drive our product roadmap.

Who You Are

At Motorica, we value high-performance individuals to grow with us. We are looking for a driven, high-energy individual with senior technical experience within animation or FDE.

• Communication Mastery: You have excellent presentation skills and can explain complex technical concepts simply to everyone, from junior animators to CTOs. We are looking for a true storyteller.

• Senior Industry Authority: You have 5+ years of experience as a Technical Animator or Lead in an AA/AAA environment. You understand real production pain points because you’ve lived them.

• Motion Matching Enthusiast: You must have a great interest in—or preferably direct experience with—Motion Matching.

• Continuous Learner: You have a proactive mindset and a genuine willingness to learn and adapt as generative animation evolves.

• Technical Deep Dive: You possess high-level proficiency in Unreal Engine (Control Rig, Blueprints) and DCC tools like Maya/MotionBuilder.

Why Join Us?

If you excel in this role, you will find no shortage of opportunities to grow with us. As we scale globally, you will have the path to build a regional team of Technical Animators around you. You will work directly with the most creative teams in gaming, see the impact of your work immediately, and help define a new era of generative animation..
