Motion Designer, PPM SMB

What you’ll do

• Evolve Pinterest’s performance motion across social and digital touchpoints.
• Create globally resonant, high-impact motion assets that drive meaningful business outcomes for SMBs while staying true to the Pinterest brand.
• Iterate quickly and communicate ideas across various levels of fidelity—concept frames, animatics, rough cuts—with the ability to receive and give feedback constructively.
• Collaborate with designers, copywriters, producers, and growth partners to develop ideas from brief to final delivery, ensuring creative is on-brand, on-message, and optimized for performance.
• Use SMB performance data, creative insights, and channel best practices to continually refine motion approaches, timing, and narrative structure.
• Explore and responsibly integrate AI and emerging tools to speed up exploration, pre-viz, and variation while keeping a high bar for craft.

What we’re looking for

• Minimum 3 years of experience creating motion/ video for performance marketing, digital advertising, or social content.
• A portfolio that showcases outstanding motion work across social and digital channels—demonstrating strong storytelling, pacing, and a clear understanding of platform constraints.
• Exceptional attention to detail across layout, typography, color, and movement in motion.
• Experience designing and animating for both product-focused and brand-building campaigns.
• Comfort working quickly and efficiently across multiple projects at once, with a bias toward testing and learning.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills; you can clearly articulate your motion decisions to creative and non-creative stakeholders.
• Experience with B2B and/ or SMB audiences is great to have, but not required
• Master of motion design tools: you’re fluent with Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, and modern AI toolsets.
• Experience with AI-adjacent motion tools (e.g., generative video, or similar) and an interest in using them thoughtfully to unlock new creative possibilities.
