Junior Front-end / Motion Developer (React + Remotion)

Department: Engineering

Location: United Kingdom

Employment Type: FullTime

VidRush is an AI-native video production platform that replaces an entire video team with coordinated AI agents.

Creators turn a simple idea into a fully produced, long-form video—research, script, voiceover, visuals, motion graphics, and rendering—in under an hour. No timelines. No editing headaches. Just intent → finished video.

We’re building a new way to create video that feels more like writing than editing, and we’re already seeing strong traction from serious creators and media teams.

If you’re excited about AI, creator tools, and building category-defining products from first principles, you’ll fit right in.

We’re hiring a Junior Motion Developer who can build beautiful, cohesive animations using React and Remotion.

This is a rare role: it’s not traditional frontend, and it’s not traditional motion design.

It’s for a developer who can think like an animator and ship production-ready motion graphics systems.

The Role

You’ll help build and improve a motion graphics library using Remotion (React-based video rendering). Your work will directly impact the quality and style of the videos we generate.

You’ll work closely with engineers and creative direction to:

1. implement motion templates and transitions

2. polish animation timing and pacing

3. build reusable motion components

4. maintain visual consistency across outputs

What You’ll Do

1. Build programmatic motion graphics using Remotion + React

2. Create reusable components and templates (lower thirds, titles, charts, transitions, etc.)

3. Improve motion polish: easing, timing, rhythm, spacing, visual consistency

4. Maintain a clean motion design system (colors, typography, layout patterns)

5. Collaborate with the team to iterate fast based on feedback

6. Optimize performance and rendering reliability

What We’re Looking For

Most Important

1. Strong React fundamentals (component architecture, hooks, state)

2. Strong animation instincts: pacing, easing, composition, timing

3. Comfortable building motion systems in code (not just static UI)

4. Experience with Remotion OR strong React animation experience and willingness to ramp quickly

5. Good engineering habits: clean code, reusable patterns, attention to detail

6. Able to take feedback and iterate quickly

You’re likely a fit if…

1. You’ve built motion graphics in code before

2. You care deeply about how animation feels

3. You can implement transitions and visual polish without needing constant supervision

4. You enjoy crafting reusable systems rather than one-off animations

Nice to Have

1. After Effects / motion design background (helpful, not required)

2. Experience with animation libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP, Lottie)

3. Familiarity with typography / layout design

4. Experience rendering or exporting video reliably (performance + caching)

5. Prior work on creator tools, video products, or media-heavy apps

Location / Time Zone

We prefer candidates based in:

Turkey, Eastern Europe, or Asia

(so you overlap well with the team’s working hours)
