Company overview

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 Traditional animation, rooted in outdated processes since the early ‘90s, lags behind the fast-paced demands of today’s digital economy.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 the first full-stack software Engineer at Animaj, you’ll be instrumental in pioneering sophisticated AI solutions that will be implemented in our 3D animation production workflows.

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.

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced full-stack developer to join our dynamic Engineering team, reporting into the VP of Engineering. This role involves collaborating closely with our R&D department and deploying AI technologies to revolutionize 3D animation content creation, production and distribution.
