About the role
Our client, a global alternative asset manager, is looking for a freelance interactive motion designer with front-end prototyping skills to help bring its corporate website to life. You’ll design and prototype interactive data visualizations, scroll-based storytelling, parallax effects, and microinteractions, then hand them off to the client’s in-house engineering team for production. The role is part designer, part front-end developer. It’s ideal for someone who thinks in motion, prototypes in code, and knows what it takes to make web animation responsive, accessible, and performant.
This is a project-based engagement that starts at about 10-20 hours per week, with flexibility to scale up or down as projects require. The client plans to grow this work more in 2027.

Create production-ready Figma designs at the client’s responsive breakpoints (1440, 1200, 992, 768, and 375px), using the client’s design system.
Build functional, inspectable prototypes in HTML/CSS/JavaScript or in tools such as Figma Make, Framer, or Webflow that clearly show scroll behavior and the entry and exit states for each scene.
Write clear animation specifications for engineering, documenting the motion system, trigger points, scene-by-scene start and end states, durations, scroll distances, and easing.
Partner with the client’s internal engineering team through handoff and implementation.
Help estimate project timelines and level of effort as the work takes shape.
