Motion Capture Assistant information

What are some common challenges faced by a motion capture assistant during a production shoot?

As a Motion Capture Assistant, one of the main challenges is ensuring that markers and suits are correctly placed and maintained throughout the shoot, as even minor misalignments can disrupt data accuracy. Working closely with actors and the technical team, you’ll often need to troubleshoot issues on the fly, such as equipment malfunctions or calibration errors. Being adaptable and proactive in a fast-paced environment is key, as shoots can involve long hours and rapid changes. Effective communication and attention to detail are essential to support smooth recording sessions and high-quality motion data capture.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a motion capture assistant, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Motion Capture Assistant, you need a solid understanding of digital media, basic animation principles, and knowledge of motion capture processes, often supported by a degree or coursework in animation, film, or computer graphics. Familiarity with motion capture hardware, software such as Vicon or MotionBuilder, and basic troubleshooting skills are typically required. Strong attention to detail, teamwork, and effective communication are key soft skills that help with coordinating talent and technical teams. These abilities ensure accurate data capture, smooth workflow, and successful project outcomes in fast-paced production environments.

Job description

A high-growth technology consulting firm serving federal, state and local, and select commercial clients is seeking a Chief Growth Officer. The firm is a specialized ServiceNow consultancy with a strong Prime federal contracting footprint, a growing OEM partnership, and a track record of year-over-year revenue growth, now at a critical inflection point in its evolution. This is a rare executive opportunity to take full ownership of a dedicated growth function and lead the company's next phase of scale. This is a build-and-scale mandate, not a maintenance role. If you are a senior growth or BD executive with deep federal capture rigor and ServiceNow ecosystem fluency, ready to make a high-impact move, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and execute the company's overall growth strategy, with accountability for revenue performance, funded backlog expansion, pipeline quality, and win rate improvement
  • Lead the full growth organization including Federal Business Development, Commercial Business Development, capture, proposals, marketing, and solutions/technical strategy
  • Institutionalize and scale a disciplined business development and capture infrastructure, including pipeline governance, formal bid/no-bid processes, Shipley-aligned capture planning, pricing discipline, and forecast accuracy
  • Leverage and expand the company's strong ServiceNow positioning as a core competitive differentiator, deepening the ServiceNow partnership, aligning solutions to the ServiceNow product roadmap (ITSM, ITOM, SecOps, HRSD, Customer Workflow, NOW Assist), and driving joint go-to-market motion with ServiceNow account teams across targeted federal agencies
  • Strengthen Prime contract positioning and competitive win rates in IDIQ, GWAC, and BPA environments, with an emphasis on ServiceNow-anchored and adjacent digital transformation vehicles
  • Drive revenue diversification beyond current concentrations, expanding into adjacent federal civilian agencies, new contract vehicles, complementary technology capabilities, and selective commercial markets
  • Evaluate, upgrade, and hold the BD organization accountable to measurable performance standards, elevating capture rigor and win discipline across the team
  • Assume growth responsibilities historically held by the CEO, building the trust and credibility to earn increasing strategic authority over time
  • Maintain revenue continuity across active pursuits and recompetes while simultaneously building the infrastructure required to scale from the current base toward the next revenue tier

Requirements

  • Proven track record of senior-level business development or growth leadership at or adjacent to a Tier 1 federal systems integrator, ServiceNow Elite/Premier partner, or large consulting firm
  • Demonstrated ServiceNow ecosystem fluency, including partner-side experience selling, capturing, or growing a ServiceNow services practice, with a working understanding of the ServiceNow product portfolio (ITSM, ITOM, SecOps, HRSD, Customer Workflow, NOW Assist) and the ServiceNow federal go-to-market motion
  • Demonstrated success managing and winning a substantial federal pipeline and book of business, with named wins in IDIQ, GWAC, BPA, and Task Order environments
  • Deep federal capture and proposal discipline, including Shipley-aligned methodology, price-to-win, gate reviews, teaming strategy, and full-lifecycle BD ownership
  • Strong existing network of relationships across federal civilian agencies, ServiceNow partner and OEM ecosystems, and selective commercial and state and local markets that can be leveraged from day one
  • Experience leading and mentoring BD, capture, proposal, and marketing teams, with the presence and communication style to inspire a team and represent the company externally at industry events, agency briefings, and ServiceNow partner forums
  • Track record of scaling a growth organization through a small-business to large-business transition or a comparable post-8(a) inflection point, with the operating rigor to institutionalize pipeline governance and forecast discipline
  • Ability to operate alongside a founder-oriented leadership team and build trust progressively while making an early, tangible impact
  • High energy, relationship-driven, and comfortable with a fast-moving, conference-heavy, street-level federal BD culture
  • Bachelor's degree required; MBA, JD, Shipley CECM, or ServiceNow CTA/CIS credentials preferred; active federal security clearance a plus

Preferred Qualifications

  • MBA or advanced degree; APMP, Shipley, or formal capture certifications are a plus
  • Experience at a major systems integrator with true growth ownership responsibilities
  • Background in adjacent technologies or service domains such as Salesforce, SAP, AWS GovCloud, cybersecurity, or data and AI modernization
  • Experience diversifying revenue beyond a single dominant capability or platform
  • Experience scaling a company from the $50M range toward the $100M+ revenue tier
  • Experience in commercial or private-sector market expansion alongside a federal core
  • Familiarity with operating in entrepreneurial or founder-led environments

Benefits

  • Base Salary: $240,000 - $320,000 depending on experience
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) retirement plan
  • Additional workplace perks and employee-focused benefit
