GREAT CODE can help the sick heal. Not solely through experts, but by those WHO LIVED IT.
This is an early-stage, equity-based role with ownership potential, pre-funding.
We’re looking for a mission-driven Graphics/Character Animation Engineer who can help us refine our real-time 3D character system. You will build the character system that helps people who are sick across the nation.
Location: Remote, ideally within U.S. or near-U.S. time zones (Arizona preferred). We welcome exceptional candidates globally who align with the mission and can commit during this pre-funding stage.
Are you a top-level graphics/character engineer who has also dealt with long-term health challenges?
If so, please read this... and reach out if this mission tugs at you.
Mission: HealHub
We are a small team building an app that lets people map symptoms directly onto a full 3D body, connect with others who experienced the same symptoms, and learn what actually helped them get better.
We need someone respected by senior graphics engineers, technical artists, and character-animation engineers. Someone self-driven and committed to excellence... “okay” is never good enough. You’ve shipped real products, solved hard pipeline issues, and know how to bring 3D characters, performance, and code together under real-world constraints.
Areas of Experience
RealityKit, Metal, Unity, Unreal, or custom engines
Animation state machines and ARKit-compatible facial blendshape systems
Building animation blend systems for real-time characters
USD or equivalent export pipelines
Drawing to textures in real time (painting, heatmap overlays)
Integrating fully authored 3D characters into mobile apps
Strong sense of interaction UX/UI, especially for tap-based body navigation
Profiling and optimizing real-time graphics for consistent 60fps performance
You know what you know, and you’re humble about it.
You understand your limits but love pushing them.
You’re never afraid of a challenge.
You’re self-motivated, disciplined, and thrive on ownership and responsibility.
You care deeply about visual quality, consistency, performance, and the craft of making a character system truly feel right.
Your ownership will be to bring the character system fully to life on mobile, integrating 3D assets, blendshapes, and animation data; building a clean and intuitive interaction UX; and strengthening the pipeline as we scale from iOS to Android, Desktop, and eventually VR.
This project will be hard. It’s a startup. Everyone on the team demands the most of themselves.
We’re not looking for a mercenary. We’re looking for someone who wants to use their 3D and graphics skills for good.
If we do a great job, the rewards will come naturally and you will be part of it.
Let’s connect sufferers, map their experiences, and help them heal.
