Love your craft
We’re craft-obsessed animation professionals, and Doberman is a space where creativity and passion run wild.
CAREERS
Doberman is an off-leash park for your creative and wild ideas.
A small and elite team of artists allows us to keep “bureaucracy” outside, where it belongs.
-
Artists first
We know that good work comes from engaged artists. We never put profits before our art or our artists.
-
Be passionate about learning
To be the best, you have to stay ahead of the pack. At Doberman, we’re constantly learning and trying on new and different hats. Here, we’re always ready for the next challenge.
-
Always speak your mind
At Doberman, every team member can feel safe and supported in speaking up and having their say. Doberman is the sum of its parts, and we’re strongest when we bring our whole selves to the table.
WHY WORK HERE
Feel alive and animated at Doberman
Have your say, have an influence
No one is muzzled at Doberman. We mean it when we say we want you to speak your mind. Our artists take an active role in shaping our company, and we’re stronger because of it.
Genuine connections
We keep our team small to ensure we all have a chance to know each other. Whether it’s team outings, themed parties, or simply crossing paths in the office, we take building genuine connections as seriously as we take animation.
Discretionary spending
We work best when we have the right tools and resources. Need a better chair or headphones? Found a cool course that piques your interest? Talk to management, and we’ll do what we can to cover the costs.
Work where you’re most comfortable
We’re a fully hybrid office. We love seeing your face, but that’s entirely your call if it’s in person or on-screen. We’re just happy you’re here.
Stories from the inside
How does Doberman compare to other studios you’ve worked for?
Doberman’s different because we’re not numbers – we’re not treated like we’re part of a system or like robots. I like the emotional connection. I can chat with my teammates freely. Doberman keeps things light with trivia sessions and google hangouts with break-out groups. I feel motivated to go out of my way to hangout with the people at Doberman. There’s no egos here.

Working at Doberman is fun and engaging. I get to wear many hats here, which is how I thrive. At Doberman, I know I can come to work and be exactly who I am. I can be authentic. Our office is fully hybrid which allows me to balance my life at work and at home. We all love to collaborate, share ideas, and we are all always learning something new. It’s an inspiring environment to work in and I couldn’t be happier.

What is it like working at Doberman?
Doberman doesn’t just feel like any old studio; it’s a tightly-knit team that’s genuinely committed to helping each other grow to meet their fullest potential. It’s the sort of environment where you can bug anyone for critique and they’ll be happy to help you along, and I myself have received nothing but positivity, encouragement, and support all the while being able to challenge myself on the job almost daily.

Doberman prioritizes people and has built such a strong and supportive community of artists creating spectacular work.

Lead Animator
How does Doberman compare to other studios you’ve worked for?
From day one Doberman’s warm welcome and feeling of family was in full force. Well over a year later and with so much growth within the size of the studio I still feel like I did on day one! Getting to work on beautiful, smart, progressive shows is motivating… but I find the day to day interactions with my talented coworkers to be the most valuable. Also the studio is named after a type of dog, need I say more?!
