What you'll do

  • Make the design calls: type, layout, framing, color, and pacing; decide what good looks like on each piece.
  • Drive AI tools to produce the work and judge the output with a designer's eye, using Claude, Babou (the company's own video platform and After Effects plugin), and whatever image and video models suit the piece.
  • Check every render before anyone else sees it, ensuring every note in the brief lands and feedback stays fixed in the next version.
  • When the AI gets something wrong, open the After Effects project and fix it yourself.
  • When a tool falls short, write it up so the tool can be fixed rather than quietly working around it.

What we're looking for

  • A strong design portfolio with layout, type, and color as your foundation, and the ability to explain your choices.
  • Working knowledge of After Effects: can open a project, find the problem, and fix it.
  • Already uses AI tools in their work and wants to push them further (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, Runway, Flow, Kling, or others).
  • Cares more about the result than the method, and would rather ship ten good pieces than one perfect one.
  • Written English good enough to work from briefs and give updates in Slack.

Nice to have

  • Motion design work on your reel
  • Figma
  • Kinetic type
  • AI image and video tools
  • Expressions
