• Introduce moments of delight where they add value without creating distraction.
• Partner with product designers and engineers to bring motion into the product in a natural and performant way.
• Use prototypes to explore and communicate interaction ideas.
• Contribute to the overall level of craft across the team through feedback and collaboration.

Requirements

• At least 6 years of experience working with motion in digital products.
• Experience using animation and interaction to make complex experiences easier to understand.
• Ability to define motion languages and patterns that create consistency across screens, features, and platforms.
• Experience building scalable systems, including guidelines, reusable assets, or components.
• Experience collaborating closely with engineers to bring motion into production across platforms.
• Strong prototyping skills for exploring and communicating interaction concepts.
• Ability to balance clarity and delight, understanding when motion helps guide users and when it may get in the way.
• Commitment to high craft standards through feedback, collaboration, and hands-on contribution.
• Successful applicants must submit to background checks, including employment, education, and criminal record checks.

Benefits

• Competitive benefits package.
• Equity.
• Consensys Advance Program, including access to Coursera and learning modules and programs.
• Unlimited vacation and holidays.
• Flexible asynchronous working arrangements.
• Remote-first work with a globally distributed team.
