Motion Designer

Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since our public launch, we've crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries, who have built 12M+ applications on Emergent. We're backed by Creaegis, Claypond, Sentinel Global, Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

What You'll Do:

• Own motion design end to end across product, brand, and marketing at Emergent
• Make complex AI workflows easy to follow through animation, explainers, and visual storytelling
• Create launch videos, product demos, social content, and ads that reach millions of users
• Design product micro-interactions, transitions, and loading states that make the platform feel fast and alive
• Work closely with design, product, engineering, and growth to ship high-quality work quickly
• Help build Emergent's motion language and keep it consistent as the brand grows

What We're Looking For:

• 5+ years of experience in motion design, with a strong portfolio of shipped work
• Strong command of After Effects, plus tools like Rive, Lottie, Figma, Cinema 4D, or Blender
• Solid grounding in animation principles, timing, typography, and visual design
• Ability to take abstract or technical ideas and turn them into clear, engaging visuals
• Comfort working at startup speed, juggling multiple projects without dropping quality
• Clear communication and good creative judgment
• High ownership mindset: you care deeply about what ships

Nice to Have:

• Experience with UI animation for web or mobile products, and handing it off to engineers
• Some hands-on experience with code (CSS/JS animation, Framer, Three.js), or a real interest in experimenting with it
• Experience creating content for AI, developer, or tech products
• Familiarity with 3D, generative, or AI-assisted creative tools
• Video editing and sound design skills

Why Join Us:

• Your work shapes how millions of people first see and understand Emergent
• Small, tight-knit team with real ownership
• Fast feedback loops and real users
• A front-row seat to how AI-native products are being built

Benefits and Perks:

1. Daily Meals: Lunch and Dinner provided
2. Family Insurance: 5 Lakhs worth of coverage for you and your family
3. Unlimited Paid Time Off: Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed
4. We work together, in person, at our office in Bangalore. That's on purpose. The best ideas at Emergent come from quick whiteboard sessions.
