Job Description

tl;dr: We’re building a 3D first‑person adventure game where an AI companion is the core of the game. Think MiSide with LLMs, but truly integrated with gameplay, not just a RP chatbot. About Us Here at Spellbrush, we’re passionate about making a good anime game. We also happen to be the world’s leading generative AI studio—the team behind niji・journey. Our mission is simple: use AI to bring characters to life and push the boundaries of narrative‑driven games. What We’re Building We’ve developed an in‑house LLM storytelling system that blends AI, story, and gameplay—going far beyond shallow “chat‑only” experiences. The result is an AI companion who cooperates with you in puzzles, remembers across worlds, and changes how each chapter unfolds. About The Role You will join a small but extremely talented team to define a new kind of video game experience. You’ll work alongside top otaku minds in the industry, including the creator of Warudo and Cytoid, a Google DeepMind veteran behind Project Astra, and top‑tier AI researchers. As an early member, you will have significant artistic and research freedom to shape what could become the next‑generation LLM‑driven storytelling experience. Why You’ll Love Working With Us Impact and Ownership: As an early team member, you’ll push the boundaries of what's possible at the intersection of AI, anime, and video games. A World‑Class Team: You’ll work directly with some of the best AI researchers and engineers in the world in a small, mighty, and fast‑paced team. Culture: We seek individuals who are fans of anime and the anime aesthetic. We believe in the unmatched speed of in‑person collaboration. International Opportunities: Our primary research offices are in downtown Akihabara, Tokyo, and San Francisco. Visa sponsorships are available for qualified candidates. You May Be a Good Fit If You love anime and the anime aesthetic – this is a requirement. You have independently developed a 3D narrative game in Unity; bonus points if the game is first‑person. You’re good at 3D character animation; bonus if you have used mocap and understand the mocap workflow at a studio. Bonus for having your assets on the Unity Store. You’re excited about the potential of generative AI; experience with LLMs is a plus. You’re comfortable working on small, fast‑paced teams and prefer on‑site collaboration in Tokyo or San Francisco. We also value the unmatched speed of in‑person teams and prefer on‑site collaboration. #J-18808-Ljbffr Spellbrush
