Youll work on expressive, real-time motion systemsnot just exporting animations, but designing how motion behaves, responds, and scales in code.
What Youll Do
- Build and implement interactive animations using Rive across product surfaces
- Translate motion concepts into production-ready assets
- Own animation logic, state machines, and databinds inside Rive
- Optimize for performance, scalability, and reusability
- Help define best practices for how motion is built and implemented with Rive
- Build tools that can be used by designers to modify Rive files at runtime
