About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on Art Director with deep motion design experience to lead and elevate how the Qualified brand moves. While this role leans heavily into motion, our ideal candidate has an appetite to “fill in where needed”, tackling various other design projects on occasion including email, social, blog and paid ads. You’ll work across product launches, brand campaigns, digital experiences, and social content to bring our stories to life through smart, sophisticated animation and video.

You’ll own the motion lens across our brand—setting standards, defining systems, and pushing the creative bar. You’ll also play a critical role in concepting and designing assets beyond motion, collaborating with an agile team of designers, and Product Marketers.

What You’ll Do

• Own the creation of motion-first assets—from storyboarding and concepting to hands-on animation and final polish
• Design and animate brand and product content including launch videos, social clips, product demos, and live event visuals
• Collaborate closely with writers, designers, marketers, and product teams to craft compelling, visually rich stories
• Establish scalable motion systems and templates that keep our visual identity consistent and flexible
• Contribute to broader design work across campaigns, the website, and product launches (this role isn’t motion-only)
• Lead creative feedback sessions and help up-level the creative quality across the team
• Work quickly and iteratively, balancing speed with craft in a high-output environment

What We’re Looking For

• Strong visual design skills with an eye for detail
• 5+ years of experience in motion design, visual design, or art direction—ideally with time spent at a fast-moving tech company
• A standout portfolio featuring a wide range of motion and design work: campaign creative, social motion, explainer videos, product demos, and more
• Strong hands-on skills in After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Premiere; experience with Figma, web animations, or 3D tools is a plus
• Solid understanding of animation principles, timing, transitions, and how to make motion feel purposeful and on-brand
• Creative, proactive, and comfortable moving from ideation to execution without a lot of oversight
• Bonus: Experience in B2B, SaaS, or AI storytelling

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Remote-first team (U.S. & Canada)
• Fast-paced, collaborative, and high-trust culture
• Creative freedom with the chance to define and grow a category-defining brand
• A team that values great ideas, great execution, and good vibes

One Team

We’re all in this together with a shared goal: grow the business and each other. Work as a team, win as a team. Collaborate and strategize across departments to deliver A+ work. We are bold thought leaders that value creating a sense of belonging for all and celebrating our wins, big or small.
