Building a 1:1 teacher was one of the original dreams of AI. It’s finally possible.

📋 Description

• Animate character states — idle, reactions, celebrations, emotional responses — for Ello's interactive learning experiences in Rive • Collaborate with our Art Director and technical animator to ensure quality and consistency across the character system • Work with engineering to ensure your animations integrate cleanly into the live product • Build scalable animation libraries and naming conventions that others can extend

🎯 Requirements

• A portfolio or reel demonstrating exceptional character animation — expressive, emotionally resonant, some examples that appropriate for a children's audience, and with range of acting style • Production experience with real-time, state-machine-driven animation tools (Rive preferred; Spine, Unity Animator, or similar accepted) • Strong communicator who makes collaboration with engineers and other animators easy • 3–5+ years in character animation • US-compatible timezone; ability to travel to SF occasionally

🏖️ Benefits

• Animate characters that are genuinely loved by hundreds of thousands of children • Work at the intersection of AI, animation, and education — one of the most technically exciting spaces in consumer tech • Collaborate with a world-class design and engineering team that cares deeply about craft • Real ownership: ship work you’re proud of directly to kids and families every week
