• Lead the design and execution of motion-driven product features across Pick’em, Bet Slip, Promo Games (Originals), Live Tracking, Onboarding, Interactive Tutorials, and Navigation.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, marketing, and creative teams to bring ideas to life.

• Skilled at conceptualizing and delivering end-to-end solutions that seamlessly integrate interaction and motion design with brand identity.
• An excellent communicator with a portfolio demonstrating high-impact interaction and motion design, including process, insights, and world-class execution.
• A collaborative leader who thrives in cross-functional environments, working fluidly between design, engineering, and marketing.
• Expert in modern design tools for product, motion and interaction (ex. Figma, Rive, Lottie, Protopie, Principle, After Effects)
• Knowledgable of technical constraints and limitations.

Even better if you have:

• Experience in fantasy sports and/or sports betting

Our target starting base salary range for this position is between $150,000 and $190,000, plus target equity. The starting base salary will depend on a number of factors including the candidate’s skills and experience, among other things.
