At Blueprint, you’ll work alongside talented people with different experiences, expertise, and perspectives. You’ll have opportunities to take on meaningful challenges, expand your skills, and see the impact of what you build.

Bring your perspective. Raise the standard. Build what matters.

About the Role

We are seeking a hands‑on Visual and Motion Designer to create polished graphics, illustrations, icons, and motion experiences for a suite of AI‑powered products. You will work closely with product designers and design system partners to translate creative briefs into engaging visual experiences that support product storytelling, improve usability, and strengthen a consistent visual identity across digital products and customer‑facing materials. This role combines illustration, graphic design, animation, and product interface elements to communicate complex ideas clearly and effectively. You will also use AI‑assisted creative tools and reusable assets to improve workflows while maintaining a high standard of visual quality.

What You’ll Do

• Create high‑quality graphics, illustrations, icons, and motion treatments based on established creative briefs and product objectives.
• Develop visual experiences that combine illustration, animation, graphic elements, and product interface components to explain concepts and highlight key product moments.
• Apply established visual identity guidelines and design systems consistently across product experiences, presentations, and customer‑facing materials.
• Explore creative directions, develop visual concepts, and refine designs based on stakeholder feedback and project requirements.
• Use AI‑assisted creative tools to explore ideas, accelerate workflows, and refine generated content into polished, production‑ready visual assets.
• Develop coordinated sets of reusable graphics, illustrations, and motion assets that support consistency and efficiency across product experiences.
• Collaborate with product designers and cross‑functional partners to align on project scope, creative direction, review milestones, and delivery timelines.
• Present and explain visual design decisions, incorporate feedback, and deliver completed work that meets established quality standards.
• Maintain strong visual storytelling and craft across multiple formats, ensuring designs are clear, engaging, and consistent with the broader brand experience.

What You’ll Bring

• 8–10 years of professional experience in motion design and animation, with a portfolio demonstrating polished motion work and the ability to combine animation with graphics and product interface elements.
• 8–10 years of experience in illustration and graphic design, with strong foundational skills in typography, color, layout, composition, visual hierarchy, and visual storytelling.
• Demonstrated experience creating cohesive visual assets within an established brand identity or design system.
• Practical experience using AI‑assisted creative tools, including the ability to evaluate, select, refine, and integrate generated output into finished design work.
• Experience translating creative briefs into high‑quality visual deliverables while balancing design objectives, feedback, and project timelines.
• Strong understanding of how to combine multiple visual media to communicate product concepts and create engaging digital experiences.
• Ability to articulate creative decisions, collaborate effectively with design partners, respond constructively to feedback, and deliver work reliably.
• A portfolio demonstrating relevant graphic design, illustration, motion design, creative process, and finished work.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing visual assets for AI‑powered products, developer tools, or other technology‑focused digital experiences.
• Experience with interactive visuals, coded motion graphics, or motion integrated into product interfaces.
• Experience contributing to large‑scale brand systems, design systems, or reusable visual asset libraries.
• Familiarity with creative tooling and workflows that improve design efficiency, consistency, and asset reuse.
• Experience developing mixed‑media visual storytelling that combines product interfaces, illustration, graphics, and animation.
• Portfolio case studies that explain the creative process, design decisions, iteration, and final outcomes. Demo reels, interactive examples, or style explorations are also welcome where relevant.
• Experience evaluating emerging AI‑assisted creative workflows and applying them thoughtfully to professional design projects.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp .
