Interactive & Motion Designer (m/f/d)

Job description

Do you design clean, modern interfaces—and know how to make them move in ways that feel organic? Do you think in layout, typography, and hierarchy—but also timing, easing, and flow?
We’re looking for an Interactive & Motion Designer who brings our brand & products to life through purposeful motion. Someone who translates ideas into experiences and takes ownership of motion and interaction across our entire digital ecosystem.
If you’re passionate about how things feel as much as how they look, and you thrive at the intersection of design, storytelling, and technology—let’s talk.

Your key responsibilities

• Design intuitive, consistent user interfaces for web and mobile—and bring them to life with motion and interaction that guide and delight users
• Develop and maintain motion principles, animation systems, and interaction patterns that enhance usability and emotional connection
• Own the motion design domain: ensure conceptual, technical, and visual consistency across products and media
• Create micro-interactions, transitions, loading and state animations that enhance clarity while feeling effortless and alive
• Define component states, transitions, and motion guidelines for scalable reuse across design systems
• Prototype ideas in the relevant design and software programs and tools
• Support our marketing and communications teams with animations for product explainers, campaigns, and hero visuals.
• Continuously refine quality through thoughtful iteration, detailed feedback, and documentation
• Share knowledge and best practices through workshops, reviews, and documentation
• Collaborate closely with engineers and product teams to ensure designs are feasible, performant, and purposeful
• Contribute to a culture of design excellence, innovation, and teamwork

Your qualifications

Education & skills

• Degree in digital design, interaction design, visual communication, or a related field
• 2+ years of experience in UI or motion design (freelance or part-time work counts—as long as the projects were ambitious and meaningful)
• Strong conceptual and analytical thinking—able to translate complex ideas into clear visual and motion concepts
• Solid understanding of software technologies and trends (e.g., tools, frameworks, libraries) and how design interacts with them
• Proficient in Figma for interface design and prototyping, plus one or more motion tools (e.g., After Effects, Lottie, Framer, Rive)
• Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SVG animation, including performance and feasibility considerations
• Portfolio that showcases exceptional motion design and interactive work—where motion enhances usability, clarity, and storytelling.

Personality and way of working

• Quick comprehension and empathy for both human and technical aspects of interaction design
• Enjoy working in interdisciplinary teams of engineers, designers, writers, and product specialists
• Passionate about learning, feedback, and continuous improvement
• Hands-on, structured, and driven by curiosity—with a love for details that make motion feel effortless
• Great communicator—able to articulate complex design and motion decisions clearly to engineers and stakeholders
