Skild AI
Technical Animator
USA - San Francisco, CA - $100k - $300k/yr
At Skild AI, we are building the world's first general purpose robotic intelligence that is robust and adapts to unseen scenarios without failing. We believe massive scale through data-driven machine learning is the key to unlocking these capabilities for the widespread deployment of robots within society. Our team consists of individuals with varying levels of experience and backgrounds, from new graduates to domain experts. Relevant industry experience is important, but ultimately less so than your demonstrated abilities and attitude. We are looking for passionate individuals who are eager to explore uncharted waters and contribute to our innovative projects.
Position Overview
We’re looking for a Technical Animator to help bring our robotic simulations to life. In this role, you'll work closely with the simulation, perception, and autonomy teams to develop high-fidelity motion systems and animations for human and robot avatars. Your work will directly support model training and evaluation, helping us generate realistic motion data to train large-scale neural networks.
Responsibilities
Build high-quality motion capture systems
Collaborate with robotics teams to synthesize realistic robot motions
Build pipelines for processing animation data
Preferred Qualifications
3+ years of industry experience in technical animation, game development, VFX, or simulation
Competence in building accurate motion capture systems
Strong foundation in rigging, character animation, and physics-based motion systems
Proficiency in scripting (Python, MEL, or similar) and animation tooling
Experience with real-time engines (e.g. Unreal, Unity) and animation optimization for performance
Comfort working in a fast-paced, research-oriented environment where collaboration is key
Familiarity with machine learning, simulation, or robotics pipelines
Background working with humanoid or robotic characters in simulation
The Select Group
Procedural Technical Artist
USA - Sunnyvale, CA or Seattle, WA
We are seeking a Procedural Technical Artist to join a team developing high-fidelity 3D synthetic data that powers next-generation computer vision and machine perception technologies. This role is focused on procedural workflows, automation, and building scalable systems. You will use Houdini and Maya to transform individual assets (objects, environments, characters) into large-scale, production-ready content pipelines. Instead of manually building assets, you will design systems that enable efficient content generation while maintaining visual quality.
Responsibilities
Design and implement procedural systems to generate scalable 3D assets for machine learning and computer vision pipelines
Partner with artists to identify opportunities for automation and efficiency improvements
Build tools, scripts, and workflows to accelerate large-scale asset creation
Translate creative requirements into technical solutions without sacrificing quality
Produce technical documentation and training materials to support new tools and pipelines
Prototype quickly in a fast-paced environment while balancing performance and quality constraints
