Motion Designer

Join fonio, Europe's market leader for AI phone agents, as a Motion Designer in Vienna, Austria. Full ownership over video content production.

About the Company

We grew from $1M to $10M ARR in under 12 months and now serve 10,000+ customers.

Fonio is Europe’s market leader for AI phone agents for SMBs. Now we’re expanding globally and into new products.

We move fast, take ownership, give direct feedback, and avoid politics and unnecessary meetings.

Join one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies.

Responsibilities

Pre-production: concept sketches, storyboards, asset creation (vector graphics, visuals, UI mockups, screen recordings)
Animation: motion graphics for paid social (Meta, TikTok, YouTube), website, product showcases, tutorials, and internal formats
Post-production: video editing, cutting, pacing, color, transitions
Sound design: appropriate sounds, sound effects, music selection, mixing. You understand that sound is what brings product videos to life
Executing creative briefs, turning concepts into finished, performance-ready videos
Iterating based on performance data: what works, what doesn't, and why
Building a reusable motion asset library (templates, components, brand elements)

Requirements

Must-haves:

1–3 years of experience in motion design and animation
Native in After Effects. There is no motion design without AE, and you work in it faster than most people work in PowerPoint
Strong skills in a video editing tool (Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, or comparable)
Command of the full production pipeline: pre-production (asset creation, concepting), animation, post-production (editing, color, sound design), all in one person
Sound design understanding. You know that a great product video is half about sound and can use effects and music to bring videos to life
Solid grasp of motion graphics animation principles (timing, easing, anticipation, weight)
Portfolio featuring digital and software product videos. We want to see that you can tell UI stories through motion
Fluent in English (as this is our business language)

Nice-to-have:

Experience with Cinema 4D, Figma, or other design and 3D tools
Experience with AI video tools (Runway, Sora, Kling, etc.)
Background in performance creative environments (B2B SaaS, DTC, etc.)
