Motion Designer (Temporary)

Responsibilities

• Design and "bulletproof" complex After Effects templates. You will ensure that layouts, typography, and timings adapt intelligently to varying text lengths and localized content via Expressions and Essential Graphics.
• Own the end-to-end technical rollout of global campaigns. You will ensure every regional variation is frame-perfect, managing the nuances of different languages and cultural formats with an obsessive eye for detail.
• Champion the use of AI-assisted tools to eliminate manual tasks. You will connect data feeds (Sheets/CSV) to creative templates to trigger high-volume renders with minimal manual intervention.
• Maintain rigorous organizational standards across massive asset libraries. You are the final line of defense, ensuring that every export—regardless of the quantity—meets our exact technical and brand specifications.

Requirements

• You believe a project is only as good as its structure. You prioritize clean hierarchies, strict naming conventions, and scalable workflows.

• Design the foundational "Hero" motion assets that serve as the blueprint for our automated systems, ensuring they are built from the ground up for scalability.
• Your Technical Mindset
