Motion Designer
HSR Layout, Bengaluru
We're hiring someone to shoot, edit and shape every video Ambitio puts out, from 15-second reels to long-form content.
About Ambitio
Ambitio is India's first AI-powered global admissions platform. We help students get into their dream universities by combining personalized AI guidance with mentorship from alumni of those schools.
We're founded by IIT BHU alumni who went through the admissions grind themselves. 100,000+ students have used Ambitio, with admits to Stanford, Oxford, NYU, Cornell, Columbia and more. We're backed by BLinC Invest, First Cheque and We Founder Circle.
The role
You'll own video production end to end, from the storyboard to the shoot, the edit and the final post, working closely with our design and marketing teams. Good ideas and sharp hooks are welcome from anyone on the team, you included. The work covers reels and short-form content, long-form videos, and the motion ideas that go into our app and landing pages.
Editing shouldn't be the slow part. If you already use Claude and Claude skills to cut faster, that's a big plus: more of your time goes into ideas and storytelling.
What you'll do
Edit videos, from short-form reels to long-form content.
Shoot videos with our team, mentors and students, in the office and on location.
Edit from storyboards, and create them when a video needs one.
Find the right references and inspiration for every piece, and keep a running library of what works.
Come up with motion ideas for our videos, and work with the product team on interactions for our app and landing pages.
What we're looking for
No experience bar. If you have the skills, we want to see your work.
A portfolio of short-form content, with reels that performed, plus long-form work.
Strong editing skills. Pacing, cuts, sound design, color and captions all come naturally to you.
You understand hooks. You know why people stop, watch and share.
Comfortable behind the camera. You handle framing, lighting and audio on real shoots.
Storyboarding. You turn a rough idea into a clear shot list.
Taste. Your edits feel current, never templated.
Big plus
Motion design and animation skills.
Experience designing interactions or micro-animations for apps and websites.
Using Claude and Claude skills to edit faster, or building your own.
Growing a social account or brand page.
What we offer
Creative freedom over how Ambitio shows up on video.
Work that goes live fast and reaches 100,000+ students.
Every AI tool you need.
Competitive compensation based on your skill and experience.
Before you apply
The form is short on purpose. We'd rather see your work and how you think than read long essays.
Use AI as much as you like in your work. For the written answers, we want to hear from you, not a chatbot.
Kindly mention N/A if you are a fresher or someone with just internship experience.
Links to your 2 or 3 strongest pieces. For each, tell us in a line or two what the brief was and what your part was.
Something you made because you wanted to, not because someone asked: art, an illustration, a personal project, an experiment. Link it and tell us what sparked it.
Name two or three and tell us specifically what they get right.
Films, music, fashion, architecture, games, anything.
Tell us which tools you use, and walk us through one thing you made or one process you sped up with them. Links or screenshots welcome.
Share links if you do. Skip this if not.
Tell us who you are, what you love making, and what design means to you. No need to be polished, we just want to meet you.
Anything the form didn't ask that you think we should see.
