Motion & Brand Designer

Please note that this is a contract-to-hire role. About Luma Luma’s mission is to build unified general intelligence that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world. We believe that multimodality is critical for intelligence. To go beyond language models and build more aware, capable and useful systems, the next step function change will come from vision. So, we are working on training and scaling up multimodal foundation models for systems that can see and understand, show and explain, and eventually interact with our world to effect change. Where You Come In You will be embedded across our design and marketing teams, producing motion and visual content that supports product launches, campaigns, social channels, and events. You'll help our senior brand designers stay focused on creative direction by owning execution across a wide range of brand surfaces.

What You'll Do

• Motion and Video Design Create motion and video content that keeps the brand dynamic and engaging, including launch videos, product storytelling, social motion, demo animations, website animations, conference visuals, ads, and explainers.
• Brand and Visual Design Produce brand and marketing assets across web, social, campaigns, events, merchandise, and editorial, keeping projects moving fast and maintaining quality and consistency across touchpoints.
• Presentation Design (nice to have) Support the creation of polished, on-brand presentations for conferences, product keynotes, investor pitches, sales decks, and launches.
• Print Design (nice to have) Produce offline brand materials such as event collateral, signage, merchandise, and printed marketing pieces, including coordination with print vendors when needed.

Who You Are

• You have 2-4 years of hands-on experience in motion and brand design, with a strong portfolio that demonstrates range across motion, video, and visual design.
• A portfolio is required for consideration.
• You are a fast, reliable executor who takes pride in producing high-quality work under tight timelines.
• You have real experience creating motion and video content, not just static design.
• You are comfortable working within an established brand system and maintaining consistency across touchpoints.
• You have experience using generative AI tools (for image, video, or sound) as part of your design workflow.
• You communicate clearly and proactively, especially when managing multiple requests across teams.
• You're self-directed. You ask the right questions, then run with it.
• Your portfolio should feature work for tech companies. Experience at an AI or design-led tech company is a plus.

What Sets You Apart

• Strong motion design and video editing skills, with experience in tools like After Effects, Premiere, or similar.
• Experience working at an early-stage startup where speed and scrappiness matter.
• Familiarity with web design and AI-assisted ("vibe coding") prototyping tools such as Cursor or Claude Code.
• Comfort using AI to accelerate production workflows, from generating visual assets to motion exploration.

Please note that this role is hybrid, based in our Palo Alto office three days per week.
