The Idea

Optima serves the top 1% of Indians so the brand register has to land on first glance with people who recognize editorial craft when they see it - unlike anything in fintech. That's the surface this role owns.

Role Description

We are recruiting a Motion Designer to be Optima's one-person media arm (enough taste to set the register + enough craft to ship most of it themselves):

• Take a script, a brief, or just a direction — and turn it into something worth watching. Storyboard it, design it, animate it, ship it
• Own the visual register: what Optima looks like, how it moves, what it sounds like in motion. You set it and you hold it
• Use AI generation tools (what already exists and whatever lands next month) as a real part of your production workflow, not for the sake of it
• Produce the full range: launch films, short-form social content, animated explainers, data visualisations, ad creatives. Static design when needed, motion as the default

Who This Is For

• You have 4+ years shipping creative work end-to-end at premium consumer, brand-led, or media companies, indie creative studios, in-house at a brand the market already respects on aesthetic
• You've shipped at least one piece of work that landed beyond its brief - a launch video that defined how a company was perceived, a campaign that travelled organically, an aesthetic that competitors started copying
• You can produce range: editorial work with traditional frames when that's right, AI-native production when that's right, and you know the difference
• Outcomes (driven by taste and agency) matter more than pedigree
• Or something untraditional that trumps all of the above

What This Isn't

• Not a Creative Director: no team to manage on day one; the work is making, not directing
• Not a brand strategist: positioning is set; this role expresses it
• Not an agency lead: agencies help with speed, but the direction and the standard live with you
• Not a social media manager: voice ownership is part of the role, but daily community work isn't the centre of it

Compensation Highlights

• Top-of-market compensation
• ESOPs
• Health insurance
