Blender Rigger & Animator
We’re looking for a skilled Blender Rigger & Animator to help rig and animate detailed hard-surface vehicles and mechanical assets for cinematic 3D videos.

- Keep rigs organized and easy for other artists to use
- Prepare clean Blender files for integration into the wider production pipeline
Requirements
- Strong experience with Blender rigging and animation
