Remote, India Edzy Full time US$ 1,00,000 - US$ 2,00,000 per year

About Edzy

Edzy is building India's largest gamified online learning platform for CBSE/NCERT students (Classes 6–12). Our mission is "Learn like you play"

Think Duolingo-style delight applied to academics:

streaks, XP, micro-wins, friendly characters, playful feedback, and smooth app interactions.

We're looking for a 2D Motion Designer who loves creating lightweight, expressive, app-ready animations — not cinematic 3D films.

If you enjoy animating characters, icons, rewards, transitions, and micro-interactions for mobile apps, this role is for you.

What You'll Work On

You will create 2D, app-friendly animations such as:

  • Duolingo-style character reactions & expressions
  • App micro-interactions and UI motion
  • Onboarding animations & feature walkthroughs
  • XP, streaks, badges, confetti, wins & feedback animations
  • Educational concept animations (simple, visual, engaging)
  • Marketing & social media motion assets (short, punchy loops)

All animations are designed to run smoothly inside mobile & web apps.

Key Responsibilities

  • Animate 2D characters, icons, and illustrations using After Effects
  • Bring static designs to life using clean motion, easing, and timing
  • Export animations for Lottie (JSON) and other app-friendly formats
  • Optimize animations for performance and file size
  • Collaborate with product designers & developers to ensure animations feel natural inside the app
  • Maintain consistency in animation style across the product
  • Deliver frequent, small animations aligned with product releases

Must-Have Skills (Please Read Carefully)

This is a 2D role. No 3D skills required.

Required:

  • Strong expertise in Adobe After Effects
  • Experience with 2D motion design for apps or products
  • Comfortable animating characters, UI elements, icons & illustrations
  • Understanding of easing, timing, anticipation, and playful motion
  • Experience exporting animations for mobile or web apps

Highly Preferred:

  • Lottie / Bodymovin (JSON) exports
  • Illustration setup via Figma or Adobe Illustrator
  • Experience animating loops, state-based animations, and feedback moments

Nice-to-Have (Bonus Skills)

  • Rive (interactive/state-based animations)
  • Spline (lightweight 3D-style visuals, not cinematic 3D)
  • Basic sound-motion sync
  • Experience working with product teams or startups

What This Role Is NOT

(To reduce irrelevant applications)

  • Not a 3D animation role
  • No Maya, Blender, Cinema4D, Unreal, or VFX work
  • No cinematic films or long videos

This role focuses on small, delightful, useful 2D animations inside an app.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 2+ years experience in 2D motion / product animation
  • Has worked on apps, games, fintech, edtech, or SaaS products
  • Enjoys iterating fast and shipping animations frequently
  • Appreciates clarity, simplicity, and playful motion

A portfolio with Lottie, UI motion, or app animations is mandatory.

What We Offer

  • Remote freelance / project-based work
  • Consistent animation volume (not one-off gigs)
  • Clear briefs and fast feedback loops
  • Opportunity to shape the motion language of a growing product
  • Long-term collaboration for performers

Job Type: Freelance

Contract length: 3 months

Pay: ₹10,000.00 per month

Application Question(s):

  • Have you created Lottie (JSON) animations for mobile or web apps?
  • Do you specialize in 2D or 3D animation?

Work Location: Remote
