Roblox is hiring Intern 3D Animator, Singapore

by
Roblox is hiring Intern 3D Animator, Singapore thumb

Are you a creator who lives and breathes the Roblox ecosystem? Do you understand the nuances of R6 vs. R15 rigs, the importance of “game feel,” and how to breathe life into blocky characters through expressive motion? We are looking for a highly creative and technical Animator Intern to join our game development team in Singapore. In this role, you won’t just be “making moves”—you will be defining the physical language of our virtual worlds. From the weight of a pickaxe swing to the fluidity of a double jump, your work will be the primary way players interact with and experience our games. You will work at the intersection of Game Design and Visual Art, ensuring that every animation is not only beautiful but also responsive and performant within the Roblox engine. Role Overview & Quick Facts : Intern 3D Animator Category Details Company Name Confidential (Top-tier Roblox Development Studio) Job Title Animator Intern (Roblox) Department Game Design & Creative Assets Job Type Internship (Full-Time / Part-Time options available) Location Singapore (Hybrid/On-site) Estimated Stipend SGD 1,000 – SGD 1,800 / month (Based on portfolio and experience) Required Tools Roblox Studio, Blender/Maya, Moon Animator (optional) Application Must-Have Portfolio/Showreel (Must feature animation and 3D modeling) The Mission: Defining the Player Experience Animation in the context of Roblox is a unique challenge. Unlike cinematic animation, game animation requires a deep understanding of latency, state machines, and player feedback. When a player presses “Attack,” the animation must trigger instantly, provide a clear “hit frame,” and recover in a way that feels fair. As an intern, you will be mentored by senior developers to master the Roblox Pipeline. You will learn how to balance visual fidelity with the performance constraints of a platform that runs on everything from high-end PCs to budget smartphones. Your goal is to create “juice”—that extra layer of polish that makes a game feel professional, satisfying, and addictive. Core Responsibilities Your internship will be divided into three key areas of focus: Animation, 3D Asset Creation, and Technical Implementation. 1. Original Gameplay Animation You will be responsible for creating the “bread and butter” animations that define gameplay. 2. 3D Modeling & Environment Design We believe in well-rounded creators. While your focus is animation, you will also contribute to the world-building process. 3. Iterative Design & Feedback Game development is a team sport. You will participate in the full creative lifecycle. Detailed Job Requirements We are looking for candidates who are “platform-native”—people who understand why Roblox is a revolutionary medium for gaming. Required Skills: Bonus Points (The “Pluses”): A Deep Dive into the Roblox Pipeline To give you an idea of what your first few weeks will look like, here is the workflow you will be immersed in: Step 1: Concept & Rigging Before animating, we define the rig. You will work with R15 rigs (15 body parts) most often, ensuring that the motor joints are placed correctly for the desired range of motion. Step 2: Keyframing Using Blender or the Roblox Animation Editor, you will set your keyframes. You’ll learn how to use Easings (Linear, Constant, Elastic, Bounce) to give your animations character. Step 3: Exporting & FBX Management You will learn the technical hurdles of importing animations into Roblox, handling ID generation, and ensuring that the priority levels (Core, Idle, Movement, Action) are set correctly so animations don’t “fight” each other. Step 4: Implementation You will work alongside programmers to see how your animation looks when triggered by a player’s input. This is where we adjust the “AnimationTrack:Play()” parameters, such as fade-in time and speed. Why Join Us in Singapore? Singapore is a rapidly growing hub for the “Metaverse” and User-Generated Content (UGC) gaming. By joining our team, you are entering a workspace that values: Conclusion: The Future of Interactive Art As a Roblox Animator Intern, you are more than an artist—you are an architect of movement. In a world where millions of young players congregate to play, socialize, and create, your work will provide the visual soul of their digital adventures. If you are ready to turn your passion for Roblox into a professional career and learn from the best in the business, we want to meet you. Apply today and let’s build something incredible together! Note: This position is based in Singapore. Candidates must be currently residing in Singapore or have the necessary permits to intern locally. We support diversity and encourage creators from all backgrounds to apply. Roblox Intern, 3D Animator, Singapore Apply now See open roles Explore More Intern Jobs
