Embedded Android Developer Jobs in New York (NOW HIRING)

Purple, Rock, Scissorsis seeking a Senior Motion Designer to support our big tech client for a zero-to-one platform. This is a fast-moving, pre-launch environment where the team is building a new design system from the ground up, drawing from and extending existing Google design foundations.

This role is laser-focused on a specific, high-impact deliverable: architecting and building a centralized motion library for the Business Home design system, while also supporting individual motion projects as they arise. You'll be embedded in a collaborative, high-paced environment where speed, iteration, and responsiveness to feedback are critical to success.

Motion Library & Design System: Architect and build a comprehensive, centralized motion library for the Business Home platform, including standardized easing curves, duration tokens, transition patterns, and animation components for web and native apps (iOS & Android).

Motion Specs & Governance: Define reusable motion specs and guidelines across platforms, ensuring visual and behavioral consistency for designers and engineers alike.

Component Motion & Micro-Interactions: Design motion behaviors for core UI components including buttons, navigation, cards, modals, and form states.

Transitions & Flow Design: Modernize and uplevel page-to-page transitions, layout morphing, modal overlays, and view changes across web and mobile surfaces.

Loading & Async States: Transform static loading moments into polished, responsive skeleton loaders, progress indicators, and state transitions.

Engineering Hand-Off: Deliver production-ready motion specs and assets (e.g., Lottie, Rive, CSS/JS specs) and partner directly with front-end and mobile engineers on high-fidelity implementation.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with UX Designers, Visual Designers, Creative leads, and Engineering in a high-velocity, daily-standup environment spanning multiple time zones.

8+ years of professional motion design experience for digital products across web and native apps (iOS & Android).

Demonstrated portfolio evidence of building a full motion library or motion design system for a platform; this is a critical requirement; please highlight this work prominently.

Experience working within large, scaled organizations with complex, multi-system design environments.

Strong understanding of web and mobile implementation constraints (CSS animation, SVG/Canvas, Lottie, iOS Motion, Android Jetpack Compose/MotionLayout).

Proficiency in industry-standard motion and design tools (e.g., After Effects, Figma, Lottie, Rive, ProtoPie, Principle, or Adobe CC) - tool-agnostic, but outputs must be immediately usable by both designers and engineers.

Ability to synthesize large amounts of feedback quickly and translate it into action, comfort in fast-paced, high-iteration environments is essential.

East Coast hours required to support a team spanning London, Zurich, New York, and Mountain View.

Background in visual design, with the ability to take on VisD-adjacent projects as needed.

Experience with AI design tools and a willingness to introduce new workflows to the team.

Familiarity with Google AI tools.
