back end engineer London, England
Job description
Who we are
Lifelike human movement is a crucial part of making 3D animation feel real. However, digitising human movement is slow and expensive, requiring $10,000s-$1,000,000s to hand-animate each frame or using a special suit and studio. We are launching an app and API that makes this 50x-1000x cheaper and faster using AI, which will push the boundaries of how movement is used in spatial computing in ways we can’t yet imagine. We’re now looking for a visionary team to help us bring this to market and change the world of animation forever!
