• Rig and animate each phase of the complete birthing sequence.
• Collaborate with other members of the team to import completed assets into Acadicus.  
• Work with Project Management to ensure content is meeting scheduled completion timelines.  

Skills and Qualifications

• Experience with optimizing animations for use in VR or mobile applications 
• Experience working on VR projects (ideal candidate has their own PC-VR system)
• Portfolio of past projects, and/or reference from past employers or colleagues
• Experience with anatomical modeling is a plus, but not a requirement.
