About the role
- Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets.
- Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset.
- On the brand side that means campaigns, social, launches, and ads.
Responsibilities
- Design and produce motion content for Kalshi's brand: social, campaigns, product launches, ads, and anything else that needs to move
- Own in-app animation and interaction design: micro-interactions, onboarding flows, loading states, transitions, and UI motion that makes the product feel polished and intentional
- Build and export production-ready animations for engineering using Lottie and other handoff formats
- Develop and maintain Kalshi's motion language, creating a system of timing, easing, and animation principles that keep everything consistent across brand and product
- Collaborate with product designers and engineers to ensure motion is implemented accurately and performantly
- Strong design sensibility across timing, easing, typography, and composition
- On the product side it means UI animation, micro-interactions, onboarding flows, and the motion design system that keeps everything consistent.
- You'll work closely with design, product, and marketing and have end-to-end ownership over how Kalshi uses motion, from concept through engineering handoff.
- If you are passionate about what you do and want to use your talents to support our mission and values, we'd love to hear from you.
- well… build the largest financial market on the planet.
Nice to have
- Concept and execute motion work independently from brief to final delivery
- A portfolio that shows range, ideally including both brand motion and product/UI animation
- Ability to work across two very different contexts (expressive brand work and functional product motion) without conflating the two
- Comfortable owning work end-to-end with minimal direction
- Experience collaborating with engineers on animation implementation
