At Roblox, we’re building the tools and platform that empower our community to bring any experience that they can imagine to life. Our vision is to reimagine the way people come together, from anywhere in the world, and on any device.

This role requires a strong mix of visual storytelling, motion design expertise, and systems thinking—bringing movement to life across both customer-facing experiences and internal frameworks.

You Will:

  • Develop and implement motion design solutions for both marketing initiatives (brand videos, social assets, product trailers) and product design (UI animations, microinteractions, and system-level motion patterns).
  • Contribute to our motion design system by defining guidelines and standard methodologies for crafting reusable components that improve product experiences at scale.
  • Craft outstanding motion graphics and animations in 2D and/or 3D, with tools like After Effects, Figma, and Cinema 4D.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, product design, brand, and engineering teams to ensure flawless integration of motion across all touchpoints.
  • Bring stories to life by crafting visually engaging content that aligns with our brand identity and product vision.
  • Operate within established frameworks, while also pushing creative boundaries when opportunities arise.
  • Balance efficiency with craft, producing polished work on deadline while maintaining a high standard of quality.

You Have:

  • 5+ years of professional experience in motion design, or video post-production for commercial and corporate content.
  • A strong portfolio showcasing both marketing motion graphics and product UI motion work.
  • Expertise in Adobe Creative Suite (After Effects, Premiere, Illustrator, Photoshop), with a strong grasp of animation principles and visual storytelling.
  • Experience with design tools like Figma and an understanding of motion in the context of digital products.
  • Knowledge of 3D motion tools (Cinema 4D, Blender, Maya) is a plus.
  • A deep understanding of design principles, including typography, layout, and composition.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to present and advocate for motion concepts to various stakeholders.
