Job description

There's craft you can teach and taste you can't, and ByteForge Labs is hiring a Motion Graphics Designer who clearly arrived with the second kind. Think of it less as a job and more as a $78,000 - $119,000 bet ByteForge Labs is placing on your 7 years and your judgment.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate with external agencies, freelancers, and print vendors
• Argue palette and type with the same evidence you'd bring to a Change Management review
• Map where Project Management and Iconography overlap, then live in that messy middle
• Generate concepts for freelance campaigns spanning paid, owned, and earned media
• Storyboard motion pieces that hold attention past the three-second scroll mark
• Rescue a stalled concept by attacking it from a Service Design angle nobody tried
• Translate Change Management research findings into a visual the whole floor can act on

What You'll Bring

• Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings
• Familiarity with the Woodbury market and local creative landscape
• 5 years that taught you which corners can be cut
• Comfort being measured against a clear senior bar

Think of ByteForge Labs as the quietly-ambitious engine behind some of the most trusted creative products on the market. Burnout is treated as a system bug at ByteForge Labs, not a badge of warm-yet-rigorous honor.

With $78,000 - $119,000 as the anchor, expect mentorship, a benefits package worth bragging about, and the latitude to work remote-first.
