Senior Product Motion Designer

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Design motion-led experiences that enhance product flows - using motion to bring clarity, rhythm, and emotional depth to interactions across onboarding, feedback, and key moments
• Craft high-quality motion content in collaboration with product, brand, and marketing - spanning UI interactions, prototypes, animations, videos, and internal showcases
• Adapt motion across surfaces - mobile, TV, web - and contexts like engagement, communications, and onboarding, always aligning with user needs and business goals
• Contribute to the motion system - define principles (easing, choreography, timing), evolve the motion style guide, and ensure motion aligns with the broader design language and brand expression
• Champion visual and interaction excellence - ensure designs are clean, legible, intuitive, and visually world-class; prototype and test motion with precision and fidelity for production
• Leverage AI tools thoughtfully - use emerging tools (Runway, Firefly, Midjourney, etc.) to accelerate ideation, prototyping, and creative exploration without compromising on craft.

SKILLS & ATTRIBUTES FOR SUCCESS:

• Proven ability to work across platforms and surfaces, translating abstract ideas into expressive, functional design
• Hands-on expertise with motion and design tools like After Effects, Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and prototyping platforms
• Working knowledge of motion implementation tools such as Lottie, Rive, Principle, etc., to bridge motion intent with real-world execution
• Familiarity with generative AI tools (e.g., Dall-E, Adobe Firefly, Runway, Midjourney) to accelerate exploration and production
• Solid grasp of visual and interaction design principles layout, composition, typography, color, hierarchy, and user-centered design
• Ability to contribute to and scale motion systems within a broader design language
• Strong communicator who can clearly articulate motion rationale and partner effectively with designers, engineers, and product teams
• Experience with 3D tools (Blender, Cinema 4D) for advanced motion or illustrative work is a bonus

PREFERRED EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE:

• 3–5 years of experience in motion, visual, or interaction design with a portfolio that reflects strong craft, storytelling, and systems thinking
