Animaj leads the global media industry by creating and delivering premium 3D animation to families worldwide. Traditional animation, rooted in outdated processes since the early ‘90s, lags behind the fast-paced demands of today’s digital economy.
Our innovation addresses the time-intensive nature of traditional animation, where each second can take hours or a week to produce.
As a Deep Learning Research Scientist at Animaj, you’ll be instrumental in pioneering sophisticated AI solutions that will be implemented in our 3D animation production workflows.
This position requires a unique combination of skills: you will lead end-to-end research projects while also possessing the technical prowess to build scalable, efficient systems.
You will report to the VP of Engineering and will be part of an ambitious team pushing the boundaries of the Kids’ animation industry through innovation in generative AI applications.
