The Product Team creates high-quality end-to-end experiences for travelers, partners, and Expedia Group. Our customer-first mindset focuses on developing products that encourage loyalty and repeat business from our travelers and partners. We partner closely with teams across Expedia Group to achieve growth and results for our customers and company.



Team Description:

At Expedia Group, design is core to our mission of powering global travel for everyone, everywhere. Our Traveler Brands design team creates experiences that are simple, human, and distinctive across Expedia, Vrbo, and Hotels.com. We are looking for a Senior Motion Designer to join our Brand Design team and bring our products to life through motion, animation, and prototyping.



This role is not about campaigns or social content — it’s about motion as a critical part of product design. You’ll shape how brand expression comes through in interactions, transitions, and storytelling moments that help travelers feel confident, inspired, and connected.



As a Senior Motion Designer, you will define and deliver motion across our product ecosystem. You’ll partner closely with product designers, brand designers, engineers, and researchers to create animations and prototypes that elevate usability, drive engagement, and bring delight into the details. You’ll also help set standards for how motion supports accessibility, scalability, and brand identity across multiple platforms.



In this role, you will:

  • Design and prototype motion for product interfaces, from micro-interactions to end-to-end flows.
  • Translate brand identity into dynamic moments that feel cohesive across web, mobile, and emerging platforms.
  • Partner with designers and engineers to ensure motion is feasible, performant, and built with care.
  • Collaborate with UX research and data teams to test and validate motion’s impact on user engagement, comprehension, and conversion.
  • Define guidelines and principles for motion within our design system, including reusable motion tokens.
  • Explore and integrate generative AI tools (e.g., Runway ML, Spline, Adobe Firefly) to accelerate motion ideation, prototyping, and production workflows.
  • Design motion experiences that scale across platforms including AR/VR, wearables, and voice interfaces.
  • Lead motion design workshops and evangelize best practices across design, product, and engineering teams.
  • Contribute to critiques, mentoring, and raising the bar for design craft across the team.



Minimum Qualifications:

  • 8+ years of experience in product or motion design with a portfolio that demonstrates motion as part of shipped digital products.
  • Expert in After Effects, Principle, Framer, or similar motion/prototyping tools.
  • Skilled in Figma and able to integrate motion into design workflows.
  • Strong sense of timing, rhythm, and visual storytelling.
  • Experience working with engineers to deliver animations at production quality.
  • Comfortable balancing creative experimentation with practical constraints.
  • Familiarity with emerging AI-assisted design tools and a curiosity for leveraging them to enhance motion storytelling.
  • Excited to make motion a core part of how travelers experience our brands.



Preferred Qualifications:

  • Systems thinker who can scale motion across a multi-brand platform.
  • Advocate for accessible and inclusive motion design.
  • Collaborative partner who thrives in cross-disciplinary teams.
  • Detail-oriented, hands-on, and driven by craft.
  • Strategic thinker who connects motion design to business outcomes and user impact.
