• Create character and non-character animation as needed
• Animate diagrams, systems, workflows, and abstract concepts
• Support internal presentations, training modules, and video content
• Collaborate with writers, designers, and stakeholders on storyboards
• Own animation from concept through final delivery

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of professional animation experience
• Strong fundamentals in timing, spacing, weight, and movement
• Proven experience producing finished, high-quality animated work
• Comfortable animating abstract ideas, systems, and narratives
• Able to take loose briefs and translate them into strong visual solutions
• Reliable, organized, and able to work independently
• Visual style is polished, intentional, and professional
• Comparable to animation used in SaaS platforms, enterprise software, healthcare, or technical environments
• Not social-first. Not template-driven. Not gimmicky.

Tools & Skills

• After Effects (required)
• Illustrator and Photoshop (required)
• Experience with character rigs and animation systems
• Cinema 4D, Blender, or other 3D tools a strong plus
• Storyboarding experience preferred

Schedule & Logistics

• 20–30 hours per week
• Fully remote
• East Coast time zone preferred for collaboration
• Flexible schedule (evenings/weekends acceptable)
• Consistent availability and dependable delivery required

Not a Fit If You Are:

• Primarily a social video editor
• Focused only on short-form marketing ads
• Looking for purely experimental or entertainment-driven animation
• Expecting heavy art direction on every project
