Job Description

Every day, tens of millions of people come to Roblox to explore, create, play, learn, and connect with friends in 3D immersive digital experiences– all created by our global community of developers and creators.

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. We’re on a mission to connect a billion people with optimism and civility, and looking for amazing talent to help us get there.

A career at Roblox means you’ll be working to shape the future of human interaction, solving unique technical challenges at scale, and helping to create safer, more civil shared experiences for everyone.

As a Motion Designer at Roblox, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our brand and product experience through motion. You will craft compelling motion assets for marketing campaigns, brand storytelling, and in-product design systems, ensuring consistency and innovation across all surfaces. 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 execute 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, defining guidelines, reusable components, and best practices that enhance product experiences at scale.
  • Craft high-quality motion graphics and animations in 2D and/or 3D, leveraging tools like After Effects, Figma, and Cinema 4D.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, product design, brand, and engineering teams to ensure seamless integration of motion across all touchpoints.
  • Bring stories to life by creating 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

  • 3+ years of professional experience in motion design, or video post-production for commercial and corporate content.
  • A portfolio showcasing both marketing motion graphics and product UI motion work.
  • Experience 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.
  • An understanding of design principles, including typography, layout, and composition.
  • A flexible, iterative mindset, comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to present and advocate for motion concepts to various stakeholders.
  • Candidates should have a portfolio demonstrating proficiency animating product interfaces and UI components for prototypes and marketing videos.
