About The Position

Replika is hiring a Motion Designer for its growth team to create motion-led paid social advertising that helps introduce the product to new users. The role focuses on designing and animating video ads and user-generated-content (UGC) creatives for platforms such as Meta, TikTok, and YouTube. The designer will take creative concepts from initial idea through final, ready-to-run ad, then use campaign performance and channel data to inform iteration. This is a fast-paced, high-volume role with ownership of the motion craft from concept to final cut, balancing scroll-stopping creative with a consistent Replika brand presence. This is a three-month contract position, with the opportunity to extend or convert to permanent. The work is fully remote and requires availability for CET hours.

Requirements

A strong motion-design portfolio; experience with ad creatives that performed in real paid campaigns is a plus.
Hands-on mastery of After Effects, Figma, and the Adobe Creative Suite, as well as other relevant visual-editing tools.
Strong visual judgment and an eye for composition, color, and easing.
Understanding of ad structure, including hooks, emotion, and calls to action, and of pacing and timing that hold attention in the first few seconds.
Ability to create attention-grabbing ads that remain consistent with Replika’s brand.
Active use of AI models for image, video, and sound, and ability to integrate generated media into a creative workflow.
Genuine interest in the product and its users.
Fast, self-directed working style, with the ability to deliver, learn, and refine work independently.
Excellent English communication skills; C1 or higher is preferred.

Nice To Haves

Comfort with vibe-coding, such as building small tools or automating workflow tasks; no computer science background is needed.

Proactive idea generation and ability to write hooks and short ad scripts.
Comfort reviewing ad-performance data in Meta Ads Manager to understand what is working and why.
Fluency in internet culture, including the ability to recognize humor, shareable content, and trends and translate them quickly into creative.

Collaborate with producers and user acquisition managers, and monitor market activity, to develop and iterate on campaign creative.
