Middle 2D Animator (Spine)

We’re looking for a 2D Animator who lives and breathes Spine and knows how to make slot games feel alive. If you can turn static layers into fluid, high-impact motion and love the "juice" of game feel, we want you on our team.

  • Collaborate: Work side-by-side with artists and developers to bridge the gap between static art and a living game;
  • Improve the Flow: Help us refine our animation pipeline to make it faster and smarter.


🧠 What you bring

  • 2+ years of experience as a 2D Animator (with a portfolio featuring slot games);
  • Spine Mastery: Deep, hands-on experience with rigging and animating complex skeletons;
  • Adobe Suite: Solid knowledge of Photoshop (for asset prep) and After Effects (for motion design/VFX);
  • Animation Fundamentals: A strong grip on timing, spacing, anticipation, and all the classic principles;
  • UI Focus: Proven experience animating game interfaces and HUD elements;
  • Team Mindset: Clear communication skills and a desire to learn new tools and tech.
