Today, that means building infrastructure for AI at a pace and scale without precedent. Tomorrow, it could mean powering a new era of innovation through robotics, advanced manufacturing, or an industry that does not yet exist. Whatever the technology demands, our ambition holds: to build the defining physical infrastructure company of our generation.\nWe look for thinkers and builders with the rigor, humility, and ownership to solve problems at this scale. They start from zero and choose truth over tradition. They back the best idea, whatever its source. They bet on themselves and embrace the hard truths that force them to grow. Our commitment is to keep the path from idea to execution short, trust them with critical decisions and the work that follows, and surround them with colleagues whose curiosity extends beyond their expertise.\nABOUT THE ROLE \nThe Motion Designer will help bring Hut 8's brand and stories to life through motion graphics, including animations for long-and-short-form videos, quick turn posts for social channels, and projects for internal events. You'll work closely with the brand and content teams to turn ideas into polished, on-brand motion pieces. \nThe ideal candidate has hands-on experience in After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Figma, other design tools, a sharp eye for detail, and enthusiasm for learning from a broader creative team. This person should also be self-started with the ability to translate complex ideas into compelling visual formats that are easy to understand. The motion designer will support the production of everything from short-form social videos to explainer graphics for long-form documentaries and help expand our brand guidelines for video. \nThis is a hands-on, high-growth opportunity for someone looking to build their motion design career inside a fast-moving, in-house creative team. \nKey responsibilities: \nDesign and animate motion graphics for short-form and long-form video content, social media, and internal and external presentations. \nSupport end-to-end production of animated content, from storyboarding through final delivery. \nCreate and maintain templates, lower thirds, titles, and other recurring motion graphic elements to keep content on brand. \nCollaborate with producers, designers, and marketing partners to bring concepts to life within tight timelines. \nEdit and enhance video footage with motion graphics, transitions, and visual effects using After Effects and Premiere Pro. \nBuild and maintain a library of reusable motion graphic templates, assets and MOGRTs for the broader team. \nAbility to translate complex ideas into compelling visual formats that are easy to understand. \nAssist with static design needs, such as social graphics, decks, and thumbnails, using tools like Photoshop and Illustrator. \nStay current on motion design trends, tools, and techniques, and bring fresh ideas to the team. \nABOUT YOU\n1-3 years of experience in motion design, animation, or a related creative role (internships and freelance work count). \nProficiency in Adobe After Effects, with familiarity with other Adobe Creative Suite tools such as Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and Illustrator. \nA strong portfolio or reel demonstrating motion graphics and animation work. \nA strong understanding of design principles, including typography, color, and composition. \nComfortable managing multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment. \nStrong communication skills and openness to feedback from senior members of the creative team. \nA collaborative mindset and eagerness to grow within a hands-on creative team. \nExperience with 3D motion design tools such as C4D and Blender is a plus. \nExperience with AI tools for automation (Kling, Weavy) is a plus. \nABOUT THE WORK ENVIRONMENT\nThis role is based in Miami. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4069,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Animation","Data Centers & Colocation","Mining & Staking","AI Compute & Inference"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T19:39:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":6,"expected_fill_days":41,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-11T05:49:22Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/hut-8-principal-motion-designer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/hut-8-principal-motion-designer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T15:09:08Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":28184,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":47563},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=47563"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fhut-8-principal-motion-designer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fhut-8-principal-motion-designer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fhut-8-principal-motion-designer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/hut-8-principal-motion-designer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fhut-8-principal-motion-designer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3764608}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"hut8.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3764608},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
