Sr. Motion Designer to join Brand Studio at Zapier, working on brand, product, and enterprise positioning with a focus on motion design systems and storytelling in EMEA.
About the company
- Brand Studio, the creative team behind how Zapier shows up in the world, is a small, high-ownership team embedded in Marketing, working at the intersection of brand, product, and enterprise positioning.
Responsibilities
- Design and produce motion across product explainers, website animations, paid social video snippets, keynote and event motion, and campaign assets
- Draft simple storyboards yourself for straightforward projects so we can move fast without a separate brief-to-board cycle
- Work directly from UI frames provided by the product team to build polished product demo animations and feature explainers
- Build Zapier's motion design language: ownable branded motion patterns that establish how Zapier feels in motion across every surface
- Create motion guidelines, component libraries, and mogrts files that give partners and social teams repeatable building blocks to work from independently
- Explore tools like Jitter and Figma Motion to enable partners to generate on-brand animated assets without Brand Studio involvement every time
- Produce short video snippets for paid social testing across multiple angles and formats
- Support the recurring product video format and turn it into a scalable template for future launches
Requirements
- Can take a UI frame or a brand brief and turn it into a story that lands
- Ask the right questions, understand the product well enough to know what the animation needs to communicate, and don't wait for a fully baked storyboard to get started
- Think in systems; build mogrts files, component libraries, and motion guidelines that others can use independently
- Understand brand as well as UI: timing, easing, personality, and the emotional register that makes motion feel ownable rather than generic
- Strong sense of sound and rhythm; know how motion and sound work together and shape that relationship intentionally
- Understand narrative and think about motion like a director thinks about a scene: setup, tension, resolution
- Manage up with creative insight, bringing expertise proactively so stakeholders understand the why behind every creative choice
- Use AI as a genuine part of practice, experimenting with video tools and sharing insights
- Energized by ambiguity, move fast, and don't wait for perfect conditions
