Saronic Technologies is a leader in revolutionizing autonomy at sea, dedicated to developing state-of-the-art solutions that enhance maritime operations through autonomous and intelligent platforms.

Job Overview

We are looking for an exceptional Motion Graphics Designer to make that technology understood and unforgettable. You will turn complex autonomy, hardware, and mission concepts into motion that is precise, cinematic, and unmistakably Saronic. Your work will appear on tradeshow screens, in partner demos, product and capability films, executive briefings, recruiting, and social.

You will join our Design function, which spans Brand, Industrial, 3D/Visualization, Product, and Video, and work alongside some of the best designers, visualization artists, and engineers in the industry. This is a role for someone who wants real creative ownership: you will help define what motion looks like at Saronic from the ground up, and your work will be seen by the people who matter most to our mission.

Responsibilities

Motion Design and Animation

Concept and create high-end 2D and 3D motion graphics, title sequences, kinetic typography, and animated explainers for product, brand, and mission storytelling.

Translate dense technical subject matter (autonomy, sensors, vessel systems, operational concepts) into clear, compelling, visually striking animation.

Design and animate UI and data-driven sequences, including HUDs, maps, telemetry, and interface walkthroughs, that look real and communicate quickly.

Integrate renders and CG assets from the 3D/Visualization team into finished motion pieces, collaborating on look development, lighting, and camera language.

Creative Direction and Visual Language

Develop style frames, storyboards, and animatics to pitch and align on direction before production.

Define and maintain Saronic's motion system: timing, easing, transitions, typography in motion, templates, and reusable assets, so every team can move faster without losing quality.

As part of Brand Design, make sure motion feels native to Saronic's identity across every channel, and extend the brand system (type, color, grid, tone) into time-based work.

Raise the bar for the team through critique, mentorship, and sharing new techniques and tools.

Production and Delivery

Own projects end to end, from brief to final delivery, balancing craft with tight timelines and multiple concurrent requests.

Edit, sound-design (or direct sound design), and finish pieces for each destination: large-format event displays, broadcast, web, and social, in the right specs and formats.

Manage project files, versioning, and asset libraries so work is organized, handoff-ready, and reusable.

Explore and adopt new tools, including real-time and AI-assisted workflows, where they improve quality or speed without compromising standards.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with Marketing, Communications, Sales, Software, Engineering, and Product to understand objectives and ensure messaging is accurate and aligned.

Partner closely with the Video team and external partners (directors, producers, studios, freelancers) when projects need extra scale.

Support events and demos with on-brand motion assets, often on short turnarounds.

Take feedback from stakeholders at every level, including senior leadership, and turn it into better work.

Operating with Care

Handle sensitive and export-controlled information appropriately, following company guidelines on what can be shown, shared, and published.

Work with security and legal partners to make sure published content is cleared.

Qualifications

5+ years of professional motion design experience in-house, at a studio, or equivalent, with a portfolio that shows exceptional craft, taste, and range (a reel is required).

Mastery of Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro, plus strong fundamentals in design, typography, composition, color, and timing.

Working proficiency in 3D and real-time tools (Cinema 4D, Blender, or Unreal Engine) with a production renderer such as Redshift, Octane, or Cycles.
