> Own motion design across brand campaigns and product UI, creating animations, micro-interactions, and a consistent motion system for Kalshi's trading platform.

## Job Description

## What You'll Do
- Design and produce motion content for Kalshi's brand: social, campaigns, product launches, ads, and anything else that needs to move
- Own in-app animation and interaction design: micro-interactions, onboarding flows, loading states, transitions, and UI motion that makes the product feel polished and intentional
- Build and export production-ready animations for engineering using Lottie and other handoff formats
- Develop and maintain Kalshi's motion language, creating a system of timing, easing, and animation principles that keep everything consistent across brand and product
- Collaborate with product designers and engineers to ensure motion is implemented accurately and performantly
- Concept and execute motion work independently from brief to final delivery

## What You Bring
- A portfolio that shows range, ideally including both brand motion and product/UI animation
- Strong design sensibility across timing, easing, typography, and composition
- Ability to work across two very different contexts (expressive brand work and functional product motion) without conflating the two
- Comfortable owning work end-to-end with minimal direction
- Experience collaborating with engineers on animation implementation
