Join us in building the next generation of interactive AI characters.

Requirements: * 3+ years of commercial Unreal Engine 5; strong C++ and Blueprints. * Hands-on MetaHuman and Live Link / Live Link Face. * Animation Blueprint, Control Rig, Sequencer, MetaSounds. * Experience integrating external services into UE (WebSocket / gRPC).
