Join us in forming a new team

Jump on this exciting creative opportunity as Coffee Stain North is branching out with a new autonomous team, working from a separate location.

Take this unique chance to be a part of a small core group of key people, laying the groundwork and mapping out the direction as the team grows.

It’s the best of both worlds – the creative freedom of a startup, leaning comfortably on the safety of an established organisation.

We’re looking for people with an enterprising, creative mindset who thrive in a smaller group.

As part of this core team, we’re currently looking for an experienced Animator.

 These are things you’ll do on the job 

  • Work closely with design and direction to create responsive movement for gameplay and impactful animation for storytelling
  • Stay on the forefront of researching new technologies and ways to effectively handle animation
  • Set up pipelines to handle animations – both in related software and for final implementation in Unreal Engine

Should-haves

  • A great feeling for weight, momentum and impact in animations
  • Ability to make animations come alive with keyframing
  • Ability to handle different animation styles fitting different genres and contexts
  • A deep understanding of animation tech, both in specific software and in Unreal Engine/in-game

Nice-to-haves

  • A cinematic eye to assist with camera work for cutscenes
  • Professional experience with using motion capture

 

Practical info 

The position is permanent, full-time, 40 hours per week. 

You will spend the majority of your work-time at our spacious offices in Kungsholmen, by Fridhemsplan. There will still be the option of working some days from home, if you prefer.

Perks of working with us

  • We offer competitive salaries and excellent benefits that go beyond a generous insurance plan and the usual payments to your pension fund
  • We believe that a healthy body leads to a healthy mind, so on top of the wellness grant you get some paid time off to work out
  • And, of course, you will be part of a wonderful team of colleagues working on an exciting high-profile project.

We look forward to hearing from you!
