Animator & Motion Graphics Designer Job at present of AI in New York

This is the first dedicated in-house animator at the company, owning how everything moves across launch videos, ads, website GIFs and in-app icons. A strong candidate is skilled in After Effects, Illustrator and Photoshop, draws their own assets, and has a showreel with several styles, from clean motion graphics to character-led work. Coming up with ideas and carrying a piece from script to delivery matters as much as technical polish.
How it fits the AI era
AI tools can speed up rough ideas, mood boards and repetitive production steps, but the posting centers on craft, taste and a clear point of view. Defining a motion language from scratch and giving a mascot a believable personality are judgment calls that stay human. The company sells to technical audiences and builds for AI agents, so visuals that make abstract data products easy to grasp are valuable.
How it builds AI experience
The company makes analytics and tools that let people and their agents query product data, so the work involves explaining AI-related products visually. Someone in this role would gain practice turning complex ideas like AI observability and agent access into clear animated stories. To build this experience, try animating a short explainer of an AI or developer feature, and note where AI tools helped your process.
