• 3–5 years of experience in a creative agency, production studio, or similar fast-paced environment
• Candidates with portfolio websites that demonstrate the creative process and role clarity will stand out. We're especially interested in portfolios that show concept exploration, not just final reels or sizzle edits.

• Demonstrated ability to concept, design, and animate high-quality visuals
• Experience creating educational or explainer videos that simplify UI/UX elements
• Excellent storytelling and visual communication skills

Bonus Skills:

• Experience with animation and character-based storyboarding
• Strong sketching or illustration skills
• Ability to turn around projects quickly without sacrificing quality
