At Mainframe Studios, were creators first. We eat creative and technical challenges for breakfast and come back for more. Weve been doing this for 25+ years, and were still going strong. From our artists to our technical and production folks, everyone is passionate about collaborating on some kickass projects. With partners like Mattel, Netflix, DreamWorks, Sony, Silvergate, and Nickelodeon, it's no wonder weve established ourselves as a creative force to be reckoned with.

In crewing our shows, Mainframe Studios values the strength in the diversity of backgrounds, lived experiences, and identities. We welcome and encourage applicants who bring new perspectives and experiences to our teams. We strongly encourage people from BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+, and Indigenous communities and those with diverse abilities to apply.
