About Replika Replika is an AI companion loved by 35M+ users around the world. We’re redefining what it means to connect with technology — emotionally, intelligently, and personally. From mobile to VR, we’re building an experience that feels less like software and more like someone who gets you. We’ve been featured in TED Talks, Stanford and Harvard studies, the Lex Fridman podcast. All for one reason: people connect with Replika in a deeply human way. We're scaling fast, rebranding with a top design agency, and taking on bold challenges to become the most human AI on the planet. About this role We’re looking for a hands-on, Motion Designer with impeccable taste, strong ownership, and deep love for users. You’ll help us rebuild our ux motion system across mobile and web.

What You’ll Be Doing • Rebuild and enhance our UX motion system, bringing consistency, depth, and emotion to every interaction. • Design and animate high-quality motion elements for UI — from subtle transitions to complex, story-driven interactions. • Collaborate closely with Product Design and Engineering teams to implement animations using Lottie and other motion tools. • Create storyboards, motion studies, and prototypes to communicate ideas effectively and ensure seamless integration in the final product. What We’re Looking For • Proven experience as a Motion Designer with a strong portfolio of UI animations and shipped digital products • Hands-on expertise in After Effects, Rive, Lottie, and Figma; experience with 2D rigging, C4D, or shader-based/generative visuals is a plus. • Solid understanding of timing, easing, and visual storytelling principles. • Excellent communication skills in English (C1 or higher preferred).
