WHAT YOU WILL BE WORKING ON

Your main challenge

Gameloft Barcelona is looking for a Lead Animator to lead the animation team working on a new action-based, multi-platform IP featuring world-famous characters from a major licensor.

Your challenge will be to establish and maintain a high animation quality bar while leading and developing the team behind it. You will combine people leadership with strong animation expertise, working closely with Art, Game Design, Programming and external partners to ensure every animation supports the personality of our characters, gameplay readability and the overall player experience.

What it means on a daily basis

• Lead and develop the animation team, providing regular feedback, mentoring and guidance while supporting the individual growth of animators across different seniority levels.
• Own the animation quality bar, ensuring character animation delivers the expected level of movement, weight, acting, storytelling and personality while remaining consistent with the project's artistic direction and licensor expectations.
• Plan and oversee animation production, managing priorities, workload and delivery while keeping stakeholders informed and stepping into hands-on animation work when the team needs additional support.
• Collaborate closely with Game Design, Programming, Art and Technical Animation to ensure animations work effectively within gameplay, including topics related to rigging, skinning and game-engine animation states.
• Coordinate animation work with external partners, providing clear briefs, reviews and actionable feedback to ensure outsourced animation integrates consistently with the work produced internally.
  
  

Within your first 3 months, you will have developed a strong understanding of the project's animation direction, characters, production pipeline and team, establishing effective ways of working with the animators and key partner disciplines.

Within 6 months, you will be confidently leading animation production and team development, maintaining a consistent quality bar, identifying production or quality risks early and ensuring the team receives the direction and feedback needed to deliver.

Within 9 months, you will be a key reference for animation across the project, helping the team operate with increasing autonomy while continuously raising animation quality and strengthening collaboration between Animation, Art, Design, Programming and external partners.

Who you would be working with

You will report to the Studio Art Development Director and lead a team of 3D Animators and Technical 3D Animators.

You will work closely with the Studio Art Director, 3D Art Lead, Game Design, Programming and other production disciplines, while also collaborating with external animation partners and the project's licensor.

Our recruitment process is designed to give you the opportunity to meet the people you would work with and explore both your animation expertise and leadership experience.

• Recruiter interview
• Hiring team interview
• Animation assessment/test, where applicable
• Final interview
  
  

This role gives you the opportunity to take ownership of animation at project level, developing both your craft and leadership expertise while contributing to a major multi-platform IP.

You will have the opportunity to grow as an animation leader, influence animation standards and workflows, develop other artists and collaborate closely with senior creative and technical stakeholders across the project.

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED

• Strong expertise in 3D character animation for games, with the ability to create and evaluate both realistic and stylized/cartoon animation.
• Excellent understanding of movement, weight, acting, timing and storytelling, with the ability to preserve the identity and personality of a character through animation.
• Ability to establish, communicate and maintain animation quality standards, translating animation principles into clear visual, written and verbal feedback.
• Strong understanding of game animation production and real-time workflows, including effective collaboration with Technical Animators on rigging, skinning and game-engine animation states.
• Ability to plan and prioritize animation work, manage production constraints and communicate clearly with stakeholders regarding scope, quality and delivery.
• Professional experience with industry-standard 3D animation tools and workflows, particularly character animation pipelines such as Maya and/or 3ds Max.
• Fluent English and the ability to communicate effectively within an international and multidisciplinary development environment.
• A portfolio or showreel demonstrating strong character animation work and relevant game animation experience.
  
  

• A supportive people leader who can mentor and develop animators across different levels of seniority.
• Comfortable giving clear, constructive and actionable feedback while maintaining a high creative quality bar.
• Collaborative and able to act as a central point of communication between Animation, Art, Game Design, Programming and external partners.
• Organized and able to manage changing priorities in a dynamic production environment.

WHAT YOU WILL BE WORKING ON



The Gametech Innovation team is a specialized group of developers focused on empowering Gameloft’s game teams to create better games through innovative technological solutions. We focus on Unity and Unreal engines, developing tools and systems that span a wide range of game development needs.

As a Mid-Level Developer within the team, you will manage feature delivery and support the technical stability of our tools and systems, contributing to the full lifecycle of each solution.

What it means on a daily basis

• Own features or subsystems end-to-end, from benchmarking existing solutions and prototyping alternatives through to implementing and shipping the final tool to game teams
• Write maintainable, self-explanatory code in C++ and C# within Unreal and Unity engines
• Debug and profile tools and systems across engines and target platforms (console, PC, mobile) so they stay reliable in production
• Maintain and extend the team's CI/CD and build pipelines so new tool versions reach game teams continuously
• Use AI coding assistants in your daily workflow, experiment with new approaches and technologies, and propose the incremental improvements worth industrialising
  
  

In your first three months, you will be at ease in the team's codebase and delivering fixes and features on existing tools with limited guidance. From there, you will own a feature or subsystem end-to-end, you will propose improvements to tools and workflows on your own initiative and become a technical point of contact for the game teams we support.

Who you would be working with

You will be reporting to our Gametech Innovation Manager, and collaborate very closely with other Developers from the Gametech Innovation team across multiple studios worldwide, including Paris, Montreal, Bucharest, and others, offering opportunities to collaborate with colleagues from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. Day to day you will work with game programmers, technical artists and producers on Gameloft's game teams internationally.

Your recruitment journey

• First interview: A conversation to explore how the role aligns with your background and to address your main questions.
• Test: You will receive a short case study to complete.
• Second interview: You will meet members of our technical team to present your test and talk through your approach, reasoning, and methodologies in more depth.
• Final interview: You will meet a Hiring Manager to discuss your experience, vision, and how you approach game technology topics at a broader level.
  
  

This role can be a stepping stone toward a more senior position within the Gametech Innovation team, or toward specialising in a particular area such as engine, pipeline or platform technology. Internal training and mentoring from the team's senior developers are available, and internal mobility across teams and studios is possible through Gameloft's Talent Move programme.

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED

• Solid proficiency with Unreal Engine and/or Unity; and in C++ and C#
• Practical use of AI coding assistants in your day-to-day development work
• Good debugging and profiling skills across multiple systems, together with the ability to write clean, maintainable and self-explanatory code
• Working knowledge of CI/CD and build pipelines
  
  

• Naturally curious: you enjoy digging into unfamiliar problems and exploring new engines, tools and approaches
• Solution-driven: you turn ambiguous, poorly defined requests into workable technical paths, treat constraints as problems to solve, and propose improvements beyond your assigned scope to keep the team moving forward
  

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

• Permanent contract, full-time employment with comprehensive Social Benefits.
• 25 vacation days per year + Birthday day off.
• Private medical health insurance.
• Flexible compensation with Ticket Restaurant Card.
• Free language courses.
• Work-from-home hybrid model.
• Merit based salary progression system and a competitive initial salary package.
