The posting

What are we building?

At Hard Rock Games, we’re not just making games—we’re crafting experiences that connect people, deliver thrills, and celebrate the spirit of Hard Rock. As the social casino gaming arm of Hard Rock Digital, our teams shape every stage of the journey from concept to launch to live operations, giving our teams the ability to innovate, experiment, and make real impact. With the backing of a globally recognized brand, we combine the agility of a startup with the reach of an entertainment powerhouse. Here, creativity thrives, ideas scale, and careers grow.

We’re looking for passionate creators, builders, and innovators to join us in shaping the future of free-to-play gaming. Let’s play hard.

What’s the position?

We're looking for a Senior Animator to bring characters, items and environments to life across our games, including the visual effects that make every win feel big. You'll work closely with artists, game designers and developers, taking direction while also bringing your own ideas to the table. You'll own your animations from concept through to in-engine delivery.

What you'll do

  • Create high-quality 2D and 3D animations for characters, items and environments.
  • Design and animate visual effects that support gameplay moments, wins and feature transitions.
  • Build and refine rigs and skin weighting so assets move naturally and hold up in production.
  • Adapt your animation approach to a range of art styles, from stylized to more realistic.
  • Prepare, integrate and test animations, working with developers to make sure they perform well in-engine.
  • Collaborate with art, design and engineering to turn creative direction into polished motion.
  • Pitch ideas that elevate the player experience and take ownership of your work from first pass to final delivery.
  • Solve technical and creative problems resourcefully when timelines, tools or assets present constraints.
  • Give and receive feedback openly and help raise the animation standard across the team.

What are we looking for?

  • 4+ years of professional animation experience in games or interactive media, with shipped titles or live products.
  • A portfolio that shows strong character, object, environment and VFX animation across more than one style.
  • Excellent understanding of motion, timing, weight and the core principles of animation.
  • A keen eye for detail and a consistent standard of polish.
  • Ability to follow direction closely while also owning your work and putting forward creative ideas.
  • Creative, resourceful problem-solving, especially under tight deadlines.
  • Great communication skills and comfort working across art, design and engineering.
  • A track record of excelling in a fast-paced production environment and managing multiple priorities.

Tools and technical skills

  • Advanced experience with at least one 3D package: 3ds Max, Maya or Blender.
  • Advanced experience with Spine or similar 2D skeletal animation software, including meshes and weighted deformation.
  • Solid understanding of rigging and skin weighting for characters and props.
  • Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop for preparing, slicing and editing animation assets.
  • Experience integrating and working with animations in game engines.

Nice to have

  • Experience animating for slot, casino or other real-money gaming products.
  • Particle and shader-based VFX experience in Unity.
  • Familiarity with Adobe After Effects or other compositing tools.
  • Experience optimizing animations for mobile and web performance.
  • Experience mentoring junior animators or reviewing others' work.

What’s in it for you?

  • Make a visible impact: you’ll own campaigns and events that shape how millions play.
  • Fast-paced execution + brand heritage: build boldly under the Hard Rock name.
  • Competitive compensation with flexible vacation and hybrid work.
  • Be part of a player-obsessed, inclusive team that trusts your autonomy and skills.
  • Influence product strategies, your post-mortems and insights will steer our roadmaps.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
