Motion Systems Designer (After Effects) — Full-Time

Launch3d · Remote (Bengaluru hiring office) · Full-time, 6 days/week

About the Role

Launch3d is a motion-first company building cinematic launch systems for Web3, AI, SaaS, and high-attention product launches. We're hiring a Motion Systems Designer to join early, as part of our growing India-based production pod.

This is a role for someone who wants After Effects to be their main craft — not a secondary task under generic video editing. The work combines polished client delivery, reusable motion IP, and AI-assisted workflows. You won't just make strong videos — you'll help build the production system that lets Launch3d create better motion, faster, over time.

Why This Could Be a Strong Step for You

• Your After Effects skill becomes the main craft, not a secondary editing task

• Work inside a team that studies and hires top 1% motion freelancers worldwide, so the standard around you keeps rising

• Learn how premium Web3, AI, and SaaS motion assets are built for launches, founders, and products

• Help build reusable templates, motion systems, and internal IP — not just complete one-off videos

• A real path toward Senior Motion Graphics Designer, and eventually India Pod Lead, as the company scales

What You'll Focus On

• Create high-quality 10–15 second launch and product motion assets

• Animate UI, typography, product moments, launch claims, and social-ready sequences

• Create derivative assets — vertical edits, cutdowns, loops, stills, campaign variations

• Build clean After Effects files that another designer can open and reuse

• Turn repeated motion patterns into reusable Launch3d templates and components

• Use AI internally to speed up ideation, reference breakdowns, expressions, and documentation

How the Week Breaks Down

• 70% — Client motion production (revenue-facing delivery)

• 20% — Building the Launch3d template/IP system (reusable components)

• 10% — AI-assisted workflow and documentation

What You'll Build

• Client-facing: 15-second hype videos and launch teasers, product reveal clips, UI motion shots, kinetic typography sequences, Web3/AI/SaaS social motion assets, partner/KOL packs, and retainer content formats.

• Reusable Launch3d IP: After Effects templates and precomps, transition and type systems, camera movement presets, product reveal structures, UI animation rigs, CTA/end-card systems, and launch announcement formats you'll help design once and reuse across future clients.

What We're Looking For

• Strong After Effects skills — motion graphics, not straight video editing

• Comfortable with a full-time, structured production environment (not a loose freelance setup)

• Able to communicate proactively — daily start/end-of-day updates, work-in-progress previews before final delivery, and early flags on blockers

• Clean, organized file habits — your AE files should be easy for another designer to pick up

• 1–3 years' experience, motion-focused

What Success Looks Like

• 3–5 polished short motion assets per week (or one hero asset + derivatives)

• Files clean enough for another designer to continue from

• At least one new reusable component contributed regularly

• Communication before a problem arises, not after a deadline slips

Your First 30 Days

• Week 1 — Learn our standards, references, file structure, and motion language; complete test assets.

• Week 2 — Create client-style assets and start converting patterns into reusable AE components.

• Week 3 — Work on real production tasks with full visibility and revision discipline.

• Week 4 — Operate with more independence; show consistency, clean files, and template contribution.

Growth Path

Motion Systems Designer → Senior Motion Graphics Designer → India Pod Lead (training and guiding other motion designers as we scale).

Compensation

INR 70,000–1,00,000/month, based on experience.

In Short

If you want more than a normal editing job — if you want to build serious motion skill, learn from world-class standards, and help shape the production system of a growing motion-first company — this is that opportunity.
