The Role As a Senior Motion Designer within the HID Advanced Team, you will define how motion brings GM’s digital experiences to life across web, app, and emerging platforms.

You will operate at the intersection of design, technology, and storytelling — creating motion frameworks that scale across platforms while pushing the boundaries of visual innovation. From real-time rendering to procedural systems and physics-based simulations, your work will elevate the emotional resonance and performance of GM’s digital ecosystem.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications) · 7+ years experience in node-based animation, motion graphics, VFX, compositing and 3D. · Strong fundamentals in physics-based animation and simulation theory. · Experience in building sophisticated particles, fluid and dynamic data-driven simulations using Houdini, Maya or similar software/tools. · Experience with Python or similar scripting · Proficiency in After Effects, Maya, Cinema 4D, or other 3D software. · Proficiency in one of the rendering engines like Octane, Arnold, RedShift. · Ability to translate creative intent into robust procedural systems. · Good foundation and understanding of animation principles. · Excellent collaborative skills. · Highly professional, with the ability to deliver solid work on tight schedules and work independently with little directions. · Effective time management with an ability to spearhead multiple projects and work independently. What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications) · Passionate and curious about pushing graphical boundaries and experimenting with new visual languages and AI generative tools · Knowledge of GPU-driven visuals, custom rendering pipelines, and/or novel graphical techniques · Experience in building VFX which are optimized for real-time engine deployment. · Understanding of shader programming and real-time rendering pipelines a plus. · Experience with Design in web, mobile UI and prototyping is a plus.
