Description We’re looking for a

Senior UX Motion Designer, Mobile

to join our mobile design team. This is a craft-driven role for someone who brings clarity and emotion to product experiences through motion—using transitions, animations, and interaction patterns not just to delight, but to inform, guide, and build trust.

You’ll work at the intersection of product thinking and interaction design, shaping how Oura feels across surfaces. You’ll define motion principles, build systems, and bring designs to life in a way that feels thoughtful, human, and responsive to context.

What You Will Do

Design motion-rich product experiences that improve usability, communicate state, and drive emotional connection

Translate product and technical requirements into expressive interactions, transitions, and micro-animations

Collaborate closely with product designers, engineers, and prototypers to define interaction patterns and hand off motion specs

Build and maintain motion libraries, behaviors, and systems that scale across the mobile app

Use prototypes (high- or low-fidelity) to communicate interaction concepts and test ideas quickly

Advocate for motion as a functional part of the user experience—not decoration—and articulate its role in product decisions

Bring a systems-thinking mindset to interaction design, helping ensure consistency, clarity, and cohesion across the app

This is a hybrid-remote role, with the expectation to work from our San Francisco offices at least half-time.

Requirements

5 years + experience designing for mobile (iOS/Android) with a deep understanding of platform conventions and motion guidelines

Strong prototyping skills (Figma, After Effects, Play, Protopie or similar tools)

Experience building or contributing to interaction/motion systems within design systems

Familiarity with shipping motion in production in collaboration with engineers

Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain motion rationale clearly to cross-functional teams

A passion for detail and a desire to make everyday interactions feel more natural, responsive, and human

A portfolio that demonstrates refined motion work in the context of real product experiences—not just animations, but meaningful interactions that improve UX

Nice To Have

Experience working on health, wellness, or data-heavy products

Comfort working in environments with scientific or technical constraints

Benefits

Competitive salary and equity packages

Health, dental, vision insurance, and mental health resources

An Oura Ring of your own plus employee discounts for friends & family

20 days of paid time off plus 13 paid holidays plus 8 days of flexible wellness time off

Paid sick leave and parental leave
