TL;DR
Staff Machine Learning Engineer, Animation (AI): Building ML tools that accelerate animation workflows, including motion processing, retargeting, motion synthesis, and rig-related tooling, with an accent on artist-assistive systems and production-ready character control. Focus on evaluating motion quality, developing generative motion models, and reducing technical animation work within runtime budgets.
Location: Singapore; full relocation support is provided.
Company
Riot Games develops player-focused video games, including League of Legends.
What you will do
- Build assistive animation tools using motion synthesis, motion matching, blending, retargeting, and physics-based character control.
- Partner with animators and technical artists to reduce keyframing, cleanup, and retargeting work.
- Define evaluations for motion naturalness, foot-sliding, responsiveness, and time saved for animators.
- Assess motion-generation and character-control approaches for production rigs and runtime budgets.
- Ship ML solutions integrated into existing animator workflows.
Requirements
- Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related field focused on Machine Learning, Data Science, or Artificial Intelligence.
- Deep expertise in motion and character-animation ML, including motion synthesis, motion matching, retargeting, physics-based control, and reinforcement learning.
- At least 5 years of experience delivering end-to-end ML solutions in real-world applications.
- Evidence of state-of-the-art animation work through publications, shipped projects, open-source contributions, or production systems.
- Programming proficiency in Python, C, C++, or C# and hands-on experience with PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX.
- Strong knowledge of statistical analysis, experimental design, evaluation techniques, generative models, and communication of complex technical concepts.
