Incubation Senior Animation Lead - Hybrid / Bungie-Approved Remote Locations

Are you on a mission to create games that bond players together into deeply invested communities? Would you like to work on something comedic and action-packed with lighthearted, whimsical characters? Do you think a lot about how well-crafted animations create satisfying feedback for players, how smoothly operating teams sustain animators’ happiness, or how the right smear frame feels like magic?

As the Senior Animation Lead on an Unannounced Incubation Project, you’ll bring iconic characters to life from prototype through production for a completely new world at Bungie. Your ability to lead and inspire a team to craft readable, expressive animation content will delight players and contribute to the best-in-class action experience that defines all Bungie games.

As a member of our incubation art team, you’ll balance craft expertise with a player-first mindset and willingness to contribute beyond your role to improve player experience wherever necessary. Your understanding of design and technical constraints will enable you to deliver functional and responsive systems that support broad animation content without an established pipeline during prototyping. Most importantly, you will work with a fun, dedicated, cross-discipline team united around our mission to create a positive impact in people's lives as we bring a new Bungie world to life.

We look for candidates who value joining a cohesive, supportive team with a diverse set of backgrounds, experiences, interests, and viewpoints.
