Founding Motion Designer

What You'll Do

• Help define LiveKit’s motion language from the ground up: the principles, timing, behaviors, and feel that make our brand recognizably ours.
• Lead motion for major launches and campaigns, from announcement videos and hero moments to social cuts and supporting assets.
• Bring LiveKit’s website and key marketing surfaces to life with animation that is thoughtful, performant, and in service of the story.
• Build reusable motion systems, templates, components, and workflows so high-quality motion can ship faster across the team.
• Partner closely with brand, marketing, product, and design engineering to turn complex technical ideas into motion that feels clear, sharp, and worth watching.

Who You Are

• You have a standout motion portfolio across brand and marketing work, from fast-turn social edits to polished launch moments.
• You’re excellent with After Effects and have a modern motion toolkit, but your foundation is design: type, composition, pacing, hierarchy, and taste.
• You can take a loose brief, find the shape of the idea, and drive the work from concept to final export.
• You care deeply about the details — timing, easing, transitions, rhythm — and know when something feels right.
• You move quickly and ship, but not at the expense of craft.
• You’re curious about how AI can speed up, expand, or sharpen the creative process.
• You’re comfortable bringing motion to the web, whether through Lottie, Rive, CSS/SVG, prototyping tools, or close collaboration with design engineers.
• You like working close to the product and can make technical ideas feel simple, sharp, and exciting.
