Senior Motion Designer

Location Details: Remote, Canada - British Columbia or Ontario

At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time; others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.​

This is a remote position, so you’ll be working remotely from your home. You may occasionally visit a GoDaddy office to meet with your team for events or meetings.

Join our team

We are seeking a highly creative and technically skilled Senior Motion Designer to join our creative team. In this role, you will bring static designs to life, bridging the gap between graphic design, animation, and video production. You will create high-quality motion graphics, kinetic typography, and character animations for a variety of digital platforms, including product launches, web interfaces, and brand campaigns. The ideal candidate has a strong eye for detail, composition, and pacing, and is able to translate complex ideas into visually compelling and fluid animations. This role also requires strong design skills and the ability to execute crafted designs that support motion and video projects.

What you'll get to do...

• 
  

  Collaborate with art directors, copywriters, team members, and cross-functional design partners to develop visual concepts and ensure assets are optimized for various platforms.



• 
  

  Translate abstract ideas and scripts into style frames and storyboards, establishing the visual pacing, tone, and direction of projects before production.



• 
  

  Create 2D (and occasionally 3D) animations, kinetic typography, visual effects (VFX), and dynamic scenes using vector illustrations, photographs, and text assets.



• 
  

  Integrate audio, music, and voiceover with visual elements to build cohesive final deliverables.



• 
  

  Ensure motion assets align with brand guidelines, maintain organized project files, and incorporate creative direction, client feedback, and peer feedback into iterative design improvements.

Your experience should include...

• 
  

  5+ years of professional experience as a Motion Designer in an agency, in-house creative team, or studio environment, with a track record of delivering projects to market.



• 
  

  A strong portfolio demonstrating user experience and interaction design skills.



• 
  

  A deep understanding of what makes an experience effective and the ability to communicate design rationale.



• 
  

  Strong wireframing and prototyping skills.



• 
  

  Proficiency with design tools such as Figma, Sketch, Framer, and Adobe XD.

Tools we use...

• Animation: Adobe After Effects.


• Design & Illustration: Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop for preparing vector files and animation assets.


• Video Editing: Adobe Premiere Pro or similar tools for timing, rough cuts, and audio synchronization.


• 3D: Familiarity with 3D software.


• Collaboration: Figma for sourcing UI/UX assets.

We encourage you to apply even if your experience or skillset doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement. We value a wide range of backgrounds and transferable skills, and we are excited to support learning and growth.
