About Motion Design careers

Motion is no longer just flair; it is functional feedback in modern interfaces.

Opportunities span tech companies like Apple, Google, and Spotify, AI companies like Midjourney and OpenAI, and streaming platforms like Netflix and TikTok.

Absolutely! Many companies hire remote motion designers, especially AI and tech companies like Discord, Canva, and Framer. Studios and agencies also offer remote freelance work with hybrid flexibility for in-house positions.
