Staff Motion Designer

Role Overview

The role is intended to define how motion shows up across Harvey’s brand, product storytelling, launch moments, web experiences, customer education, and executive-facing creative work. It sits within Brand and Design, reporting into Shawn Farsai.

What You'll Do

• Own the motion design language for Harvey’s brand across launch videos, product explainers, web and campaign moments, event assets, social cuts, sales enablement, and other high-leverage creative surfaces.
• Create motion concepts, storyboards, styleframes, animatics, and final motion assets that make complex AI workflows feel clear, premium, and unmistakably Harvey.
• Partner closely with Brand, Product Marketing, Product Design, Creative Operations, and other GTM stakeholders to translate positioning, product context, and user needs into motion narratives that can ship quickly.
• Develop reusable motion systems, templates, animation principles, and production workflows so Harvey can scale motion output without reinventing the wheel on every request.
• Raise the craft bar for motion while remaining willing to do the unglamorous but important production work required in a fast-moving creative team.

What You Have

• A strong portfolio of motion work that demonstrates storytelling, art direction, animation craft, visual systems thinking, and the ability to explain the process behind finished work.
• Deep fluency in motion design tools and workflows such as After Effects, Figma, Cinema 4D, Lottie, Rive, code-adjacent motion, or comparable production tools.
• Experience building motion for brand, product, marketing, launch, or education contexts, ideally in a product-led technology company or high-growth SaaS environment.
• A demonstrated ability to simplify complex concepts visually without overloading the viewer, including strong instincts for pacing, sequencing, hierarchy, narration, and accessibility.
• Strong cross-functional communication skills, including the ability to clarify a brief, align with PMM or Marketing goals, handle competing feedback, and prioritize multiple stakeholder requests.
• A staff-level ownership mindset: able to bring ideas, shape systems, operate through ambiguity, give and receive feedback well, and still roll up sleeves when the team needs execution support.
