The Role As a Senior Motion Designer within the HID Advanced Team, you will define how motion brings GM's web and mobile emerging digital experiences to life. This is a senior individual contributor role where craft is strategy: your motion systems, interaction behaviors, and visual language will shape how millions of people perceive and experience GM products. You'll operate at the intersection of product design, design systems, storytelling and advanced graphics-combining narrative, interaction, and technology into a coherent motion language. You will: - Leverage motion as a concepting medium to create new experiences. - Push the boundaries of the end-to-end motion language across web and mobile apps. - Contribute to designing motion systems that are expressive, performant, and accessible, and that scale across platforms and teams. - Beyond execution, you will act as a craft leader, setting standards for motion excellence, and influencing product direction through the clarity and sophistication of your work. - If you thrive on complex problems, love building motion languages that are both beautiful and deeply functional and want to push the edges this role is for you. What You'll Do Build Advanced Motion & Visual Explorations - Design and produce advanced motion graphics, procedural animations, particle systems, and simulations for product and storytelling contexts. - Build dynamic, data-driven visuals using tools such as Houdini, Maya, Cinema 4D, or similar. - Prototype and deliver motion optimized for real-time deployment and performance constraints (web, mobile, in-app surfaces, and emerging platforms). - Explore emerging technologies including GPU-driven visuals, AI-generated motion, custom shaders, and novel rendering techniques. - Experiment with new visual languages that differentiate GM's digital presence while aligning to brand and accessibility standards. - Act as a motion subject-matter expert for cross-functional teams; help frame problems and define what "great" looks like. Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications) - 7+ years experience in node-based animation, motion graphics, VFX, compositing and 3D. - Strong fundamentals in physics-based animation and simulation theory. - Experience in building sophisticated particles, fluid and dynamic data-driven simulations using Houdini, Maya or similar software/tools. - Experience with Python or similar scripting. - Proficiency in After Effects, Maya, Cinema 4D, or other 3D software. - Proficiency in one of the rendering engines like Octane, Arnold, RedShift. - Ability to translate creative intent into robust procedural systems. - Good foundation and understanding of animation principles. - Excellent collaborative skills. Highly professional, with the ability to deliver solid work on tight schedules and work independently with little directions. - Effective time management with an ability to spearhead multiple projects and work independently. What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications) - Passionate and curious about pushing graphical boundaries and experimenting with new visual languages and AI generative tools - Knowledge of GPU-driven visuals, custom rendering pipelines, and/or novel graphical techniques - Experience in building VFX which are optimized for real-time engine deployment. - Understanding of shader programming and real-time rendering pipelines a plus. - Experience with Design in web, mobile UI and prototyping is a plus - How We Think About Motion - Motion is product, not garnish. It should clarify, guide, and respond- never distract. - Systems over one-offs. We value designers who can create patterns and principles that others can use and extend. - Expressive, but responsible. We care about accessibility, performance, and inclusivity as much as aesthetics. - Curious and evolving. We look for people who stay close to the frontier- whether that's AI-assisted workflows, new rendering techniques, or emerging interaction paradigms-and can bring that thinking back to real products. - If this sounds like you, we'd love to see your portfolio and learn how you've used motion to make digital products feel more alive, intuitive, and memorable. Compensation: - The expected base compensation for this role is: ($134,700-207,600). Actual base compensation within the identified range will vary based on factors relevant to the position. - Bonus Potential: An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance, job level, and individual performance. - Benefits: GM offers a variety of health and wellbeing benefit programs.
