📋 Description

• Design high-quality motion graphics and interaction animations for web and mobile products. • Create motion that is lightweight, performant, and suitable for code-driven implementation. • Work with product designers to bring UI concepts to life through motion that enhances usability and engagement. • Collaborate closely with engineering teams to ensure animations translate accurately and efficiently into production. • Develop motion templates, guidelines, and libraries that support a cohesive motion design system. • Balance expressiveness with performance—knowing when subtlety has the most substantial impact. • Iterate based on feedback and performance constraints across devices and platforms. • Produce motion prototypes, storyboards, and timing specifications for handoff.

🎯 Requirements

• 3–7+ years of experience in motion design, product motion, or interactive design. • Strong portfolio demonstrating modern, fluid motion for digital products, not just video reels. • Experience designing motion intended for real-time rendering or code-based implementation. • Understanding of performance considerations, easing curves, and animation principles. • Proficiency with tools such as Figma, After Effects, Touch-designer or creative coding workflows. • Ability to collaborate closely with engineers and speak to feasibility, performance, and implementation details. • A clear perspective on when motion should be expressive vs. when it should be invisible. • Strong communication and documentation skills for motion specifications. • Familiarity with design systems and motion guidelines at scale.
