Animation Intern

About Unsupervized

Unsupervized is building humanoid robots.

The Role

We’re looking for an animated storyteller who can turn complex ideas about robotics, AI, and the future of work into short, compelling pieces for our social channels. You’ll own the storytelling for Unsupervized across platforms: explainers, origin stories, product moments, and pieces about the industry we’re helping create. This is a hands-on role. You’ll write, animate, edit, and publish, and you’ll use AI tools to move faster without giving up craft or taste. You’ll work directly with the founding team and have real say in what we make and how we make it.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and produce animated stories that explain what we’re building and why humanoids matter
• Create short-form video for social channels, from concept and script through animation, editing, and final delivery
• Translate technical ideas about robotics and AI into clear, human narratives
• Build a repeatable workflow that combines traditional animation and editing with AI tools for ideation, asset generation, voiceover, and iteration
• Help define the visual language and tone of the Unsupervized brand
• Track what performs, learn from it, and push the next piece further

What We’re Looking For

• Experience with animation (2D or 3D or motion graphics) through coursework, personal projects, or prior work
• Video editing skills in a professional tool such as Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, or After Effects
• A strong sense of storytelling: structure, pacing, and what makes someone stop scrolling
• Demonstrated fluency with AI tools, and a clear point of view on where they help and where they don’t
• Curiosity about robotics, AI, or the future of work
• Ability to work onsite full-time

Nice to have

• A portfolio of short-form content or explainer videos
• Experience with 3D tools such as Blender or Cinema 4D
• Interest in science communication or technical storytelling
• Experience at an early-stage startup or in a fast-moving team

Please include with your application: a link to your reel or portfolio, and a short note (a few sentences is fine) on a story you think a robotics company should be telling and how you’d tell it. We will respond faster if you send an email to [email protected]

What You’ll Get

• Ownership: Real responsibility for the company’s storytelling from early on, not a checklist of tasks
• Freedom: Room to experiment, propose ideas, and shape the work
• Startup pace: Immersion in a team that ships quickly, iterates fast, and expects you to do the same
• Mentorship: Direct access to the founders and the people building the product
• Impact: Your work will reach people deciding whether humanoids are the future, and you’ll help define how that future is understood
