Hey, we’re Bunsen . We create brands, websites, decks, and more for companies at the forefront of biopharma, aerospace, manufacturing, and other frontier industries. Our mission is to help scientists and engineers translate technical breakthroughs into powerful stories that connect with their most important audiences.
We’re looking for a Motion Designer who can bring complex ideas to life in both 2D and 3D. Maybe that’s you.
What you’ll do
As a Motion Designer, you’ll collaborate with our Creative Director, Design Leads, and broader team to create motion that clarifies complex ideas and elevates our clients’ brands.
Concepting: You’ll help translate scientific and technical concepts into clear, compelling visual narratives. You’ll work with our Design Leads to develop storyboards, style frames, and motion studies that align with each project’s creative direction.
2D Motion: You’ll animate brand systems, typography, diagrams, illustrations, interfaces, and other graphic elements for websites, presentations, and explainer videos.
3D Motion: You’ll model, animate, light, and render 3D assets like molecules, proteins, hardware, and abstract graphics.
Interactive Motion: You’ll work with designers and developers to create motion for the web, preparing optimized assets and defining timing, easing, transitions, and responsive behavior.
Production: You’ll manage projects from initial exploration through final delivery, maintaining a high bar for craft, consistency, and technical execution. You’ll prepare and optimize assets for developers and production partners. Bonus points for
