2D Animator / Motion Designer

Light Apps Group is looking for a creative 2D Animator / Motion Designer who is excited to turn ideas into engaging explainer and story-driven animated content for marketing and product use.

You don’t have to come from a big studio — what matters most is your visual thinking, animation skills, and ability to explain complex things in a simple, engaging way. We are launching a new direction focused on explainer and story-driven animation, so you’ll have a chance to shape the visual style, approaches, and formats from the ground up in a fast-paced yet supportive environment with minimal bureaucracy.

• Help the team find the best visual way to explain complex ideas
• Record basic voiceovers for videos when needed
• Add simple sound design and background music (when required)
• Collaborate closely with the founder to bring ideas to life

What we're looking for

• Strong illustration skills (characters, scenes, objects)
• Experience in 2D animation / motion design
• Confidence with tools such as After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Figma (your own solid stack is enough)

• Ability to think not only “how it looks” but “how it communicates”
• Attention to detail and responsibility for final visual quality
• Ability to work with loosely defined ideas and turn them into clear visual solutions
