Associate Animator

We need you to help us bring cinematic character performance to the next level. As an Associate Animator at Bungie you will participate in the effort to concept and finalize spectacular mo-capped and hand-keyed in-game cinematic animation for a variety of characters, both human and creature. You will support the animation team’s goals of efficient and aesthetic completion of tasks as well as participating in critique towards animation and the overall creative process. If this is the opportunity you are looking for, we’d love to hear from you. Be a part of our team, and let’s create new worlds together!

With the uncertainty and rapidly changing circumstances surrounding COVID-19, most positions at Bungie are expected to onboard and work from home for a significant portion of 2021. In 2022, most Bungie employees will adopt a flexible schedule working from home part time (outside of positions identified as either 100% onsite or fully remote in CA, IL, NC, TX, and WA). Currently only a select range of positions are available for full-time remote work in CA, IL, NC, TX, and WA (please review location for details). Prospective employees located outside of CA, IL, NC, TX, and WA will need to establish WA state residency within 45 days of a start date. Bungie’s work from home, flexible work schedule, and remote policy is subject to change at the company’s discretion.
