Creative Motion Designer

At Edge, we’re on a mission to eliminate geographic borders as barriers to full-time employment and fair wages. We’re creating a global HR platform ecosystem that seamlessly connects exceptional talent worldwide with North American businesses that need to fill positions. By making hiring globally easier than hiring locally, we provide businesses access to a broader talent pool and accelerate their hiring process. Spread across four continents, we’re a global team disrupting the norms of how people can work together.

We’re looking for a Motion Graphics Designer who can bring stories to life through compelling video and animation. You’ll transform raw assets, testimonials, and ideas into visually striking, high-performing videos across platforms like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, and our digital channels.

• Produce attention-grabbing creative ads and thought-leadership videos - using humor, trends, and storytelling.
• Align video storytelling with Edge’s key narratives: human + system, compliance-ready infrastructure, and the flexible workforce platform.

3. Video Editing & Optimization

• Edit testimonial and product videos with efficiency and creativity, ensuring the messaging is clear, concise, and compelling.
• Adapt videos for different formats, platforms, and audiences while maintaining brand consistency.
• Optimize content for platform requirements (aspect ratio, duration, size, resolution, etc.).

4. Collaboration & Brand Alignment

• Partner with cross-functional Product Marketing, Growth, and Creative teams to align video content with audience insights, GTM priorities, and funnel stage needs.
• Ensure all videos reflect brand guidelines, tone, and visual standards.
• Maintain and update a library of motion assets and templates for future use.

Success Metrics

• Quality: Crisp animation, detailed design, strong storyboarding, adherence to brand and platform guidelines.
• Creativity: Modern mix of photography and motion graphics with a clear storytelling arc.

Qualifications

• Experience: 4–5+ years in motion design, animation, or video production for marketing or creative teams.
• Portfolio: Strong showcase of motion graphics, animation, storytelling, and video editing.

• Technical Skills:
