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.

Nice to have

  • Leadership experience mentoring junior team members and interns.
  • Experience in the gaming industry or a related field.

Culture & Benefits

  • Full relocation support.
  • Health insurance for the employee, spouse, and children.
  • Open paid time off and retirement benefits with company matching.
  • Life insurance, parental leave, and short-term and long-term disability coverage.
  • Play Fund and matched donations to non-profit organizations.
