ABOUT the company

The company partners with tech startups to launch bold ideas into the world, creating the brands, products, and stories that fuel their growth.

Since 2022, we've partnered with some of the world's top founders and institutions, including Amazon, Pear VC, Andreessen Horowitz, Mercor, Context Inc, Netic, Listen Labs, Tech Week, Mantis VC, Spur, Flora, and more.

We're growing fast and looking for great people to join us.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

We're looking for a Motion Designer to join our growing team and help us bring our clients' biggest ideas to life in motion.

You'll work on launch videos, commercials, product explainers, social content, and brand campaigns for our roster of tech clients. The work spans 2D, UI, typography, compositing, and edit-driven animation — sometimes a polished hero sequence for a product launch, sometimes a fast-turn social cutdown, often both in the same week.

You'll partner closely with our producers, editors, designers, and directors, taking the company direction from our Motion Design Lead and contributing your own ideas as projects develop. You'll own your work from concept through final delivery, iterate quickly on feedback, and bring real craft to every frame regardless of timeline or scope.

This is a hands-on role in a fast-moving studio. We need someone with strong fundamentals, sharp visual instincts, and the appetite to push their work past the obvious version.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Design and animate motion work across launch videos, commercials, product explainers, social content, and brand campaigns
  • Create work from concept through final delivery across 2D, UI, typography, compositing, and edit-driven animation
  • Translate the company direction and storyboards into compelling motion that hits the intended tone, pacing, and feel
  • Work closely with producers, editors, designers, and directors to bring ideas to life
  • Iterate quickly on feedback from the company leads and clients without losing the craft
  • Help build and maintain templates, presets, and motion systems that improve consistency across projects
  • Balance speed and quality while working across multiple projects and deadlines
  • Push work beyond the obvious. We value people with strong taste, attention to detail, and a desire to refine until the work feels exceptional
  • Stay current on tools, techniques, and trends that can elevate the motion work we ship

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 3 to 5 years of experience as a motion designer, ideally in a studio, agency, or in-house the company team
  • A strong reel that demonstrates range across product and UI motion, brand work, and edit-driven animation
  • Expert in After Effects; comfortable in Figma and Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve
  • Strong visual design fundamentals — type, layout, color, composition, timing
  • Real point of view on motion — easing, transitions, restraint — and the ability to talk through your decisions
  • Solid eye for detail. You notice the things most people don't and care about getting them right
  • Comfortable taking feedback and iterating quickly without losing momentum
  • Experience in studio, agency, or fast-moving startup environments
  • Self-directed and remote-ready. You can manage your own workload, communicate clearly in writing, and stay aligned across time zones
  • Calm, organized, and dependable under pressure

WHY JOIN the company

  • Be part of a small, fast-growing the company studio trusted by world-class startups and investors
  • Work directly with the partners and the company leadership on ambitious, high-impact projects
  • Define and scale the motion practice as we build the team out
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), PTO, and company holidays
