About the Job

As a Motion Designer at Odoo, you’ll create engaging video and motion content across web, organic and paid social, events, and more to support brand awareness, product education, and lead generation. You must have strong animation, editing, and visual design skills, with the ability to turn complex ideas into compelling visual stories.

• Develop video content across multiple channels, including on-site, organic and paid social, events, and more, to support marketing goals such as brand awareness, product education, and lead generation.
• Manage your content project pipeline from start to finish, designing, tracking, and producing static and motion video deliverables, often in collaboration with cross-functional partners.
• Think critically about creative and implementation challenges, balancing strategy and execution while efficiently and collaboratively guiding non-technical contributors through the video production process.
• Collaborate with content writers, salespeople, systems analysts, and other cross-functional stakeholders across a variety of projects.

Must-Have:

• Demonstrable experience in video animation and editing, supported by a portfolio showcasing the quality and range of your work.

• Expertise in digital media technology and editing software, including file formats, codecs, and color spaces, and proficiency with Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Illustrator.
• Experience independently leading projects, managing deadlines, and contributing to shared team goals.

Nice to Have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Digital Media, Communications, Film, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
• A startup mindset that combines self-motivation and grit with the courage to experiment, follow through on new ideas, and recognize when to push creative boundaries versus use proven approaches.
• Knowledge of a 3D software package such as Blender, Cinema 4D, Maya, or Maxon.
• Up-to-date knowledge of industry design standards and trends.

Compensation and Perks:

• Healthcare, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, FSA, HSA Matching, 401K Matching, and Commuter Benefits
