Responsibilities:

• Supporting motion design projects from production through final delivery
• Jumping into existing After Effects files and getting up to speed quickly
• Maintaining impeccable file organization and naming conventions

• Designing and animating UI/product work (including tech and platform-based animations)
• Supporting art direction and, when needed, leading smaller projects
• Being present on client calls when needed and representing BIEN professionally
• Taking full ownership of deliverables, including flexibility around production needs and timelines
• Helping the team navigate last-minute emergencies with calm, efficiency, and humor
• Advocating for diversity and inclusion on-screen and behind the scenes in your daily work

Requirements:

• Must LIVE in the USA, have appropriate paperwork, and work PST hours. No exceptions, sorry
• 4+ years of experience in a motion design or production environment
• Advanced After Effects skills — you can confidently open someone else's file and work efficiently
• Expert-level AE file organization (this is non-negotiable)
• Strong 2D design fundamentals (typography, color, layout)
• Experience with Figma and UI design
• UI animation experience (especially product/tech-focused work)
• Strong toolkit and production system-building skills
• Ability to work quickly and efficiently under tight deadlines
• Exceptional attention to detail
• Client-facing experience and strong communication skills
• Comfortable receiving creative feedback from producers and collaborating cross-functionally
• A proactive team player with no ego
• Willingness to continuously learn new tools and technologies to improve the work
• Must be meticulous and detail-oriented (if you read this, put 3 asterisks in the 1st line of the submission form)
• Must be very funny. Also comfortable sitting in silence during long working sessions
