Job description

At Praktika.ai we are on a mission to deliver efficient and engaging learning experiences for billions of students worldwide by bridging the gap between learning apps and human tutors.

We have done this by creating a fully automated language tutorship experience powered by generative AI Avatars. After raising $30 million in Series‑A funding, we are growing and looking for a Senior Motion Designer to join us!

We are a global small team of 50 innovators who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in language learning and tutoring.

In this fast‑paced environment we like independent self‑starters who can work well in a team as well as unassisted and who enjoy the working environment of an early‑stage startup.

What you’ll do with us:

Premium Product Storytelling

• Create stunning, high‑end product demo videos that showcase our AI technology with cinematic quality.
• Transform complex AI features into clear, emotionally compelling visual narratives.
• Own the full creative process: concept, storyboarding, animation, and final delivery.

AI Powered Production

• Master cutting‑edge AI tools (Runway, Kling, Pika, Luma, etc.) to push creative boundaries.
• Use AI for motion graphics, transitions, effects, and dynamic product demos—but with taste and craft.
• Build repeatable AI workflows that maintain premium quality at higher velocity.
• Know when to use AI and when to craft by hand—zero tolerance for AI slop.

Brand & Quality Standards

• Maintain exceptionally high visual standards worthy of a top‑tier AI company.
• Develop and evolve our motion design language and visual identity.
• Balance innovation with polish: experimental but never unfinished.
• Set the quality bar that competitors try to match.

End-to-End Execution

• Own video projects from brief to final render.
• Collaborate with product, growth, and brand teams on creative direction.
• Manage timelines and deliver on schedule without compromising quality.
• Iterate rapidly based on performance data and stakeholder feedback.

What we are looking for from you:

• 3–5 years in motion design, with portfolio demonstrating premium product demo work. Proven mastery of After Effects, Cinema 4D, or equivalent industry‑standard tools.
• Strong hands‑on experience with AI video/motion tools (Runway, Kling, Pika, Luma, etc.).
• Exceptional taste: ability to use AI tools while maintaining high‑end aesthetic standards.
• Portfolio that shows range: from sleek product demos to experimental visual storytelling.
• Strong understanding of product marketing and conversion‑oriented design.
• Can work autonomously and move fast without hand‑holding.
• Tech‑savvy: comfortable learning new AI tools as they emerge.
• High ownership, ego in check, hungry to build world‑class work.

It would be great if you have:

• Bonus: experience in SaaS, AI/ML products, or consumer mobile apps.
• You can look at AI‑generated content and immediately spot what’s sloppy vs. what’s crafted.
• Your work makes people stop scrolling and say “wow, how did they make that?”
• You’re excited by AI tools but disciplined about quality.

Why should you join Praktika:

We expect dedication and hard work—but we also believe in rewarding it. Our compensation reflects the effort and results you bring to the table.

• Top‑tier salary to match your top‑tier skills.
• Equity that grows with your impact: Equity growth via stock options.
• 26 days holidays plus bank holidays. (34 days per year).
• Yearly off‑sites: Last year was in Dubai!
• Health and wellness benefits to support your overall well‑being through Safetywing.
• Access to an AI toolkit including ChatGPT, Copilot, and other productivity tools.
• Annual educational budget of up to $1,000.

Join Praktika and lead the charge in driving exponential growth and innovation. Apply now to be part of a team that is redefining language learning for millions of users worldwide.
