Fireblocks is looking for a Senior Motion Designer to define how motion expresses the Fireblocks brand across marketing, web, events, and product experiences. You will build our scalable motion language from the ground up — translating complex, infrastructure-level technology into clear and compelling 2D motion graphics that feel distinctly Fireblocks.

This is a highly collaborative role, sitting within the Brand team and working closely with product, marketing, and content. You bring deep SaaS product animation experience, a sharp eye for UI motion, and a portfolio that shows both brand storytelling and functional product design in motion.

For employees hired to work from our NYC HQ, Fireblocks is required by law to include a reasonable estimate of the compensation range for this role. This range is specific to New York City and takes into consideration a wide range of factors that are reviewed when making a hiring decision, such as years of experience, skills, and other business needs. It is not typical for a candidate to be hired at or near the top of the pay range and each compensation decision is dependent on each individual case. A reasonable base salary range estimate for this position is $125,000 - $170,000. The base salary is one component of the total compensation package, which for some roles may include a target bonus, a very competitive equity grant, and very generous benefits.

While we believe competitive compensation is a critical aspect of your decision to join us, we do hope you also spend time considering why our mission and culture are right for you. We are creating something transformational here, and we hope you are as excited about the future as we are.

Fireblocks' mission is to enable every business to easily and securely access digital assets and cryptocurrencies. In order to do that, we strongly believe our workforce should be as diverse as our clients, and this is why we embrace diversity and inclusion in all its forms.
