Art Director (Motion Design)

Lucidya is transforming how brands connect with their audiences using AI-driven insights, and we’re just getting started.

We’re looking for a visionary Art Director who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative, and highly creative environment to lead our motion design efforts. This is not just another design role. You’ll be at the core of our marketing engine, shaping Lucidya’s visual identity and breathing life into our brand through powerful motion storytelling.

If you dream in animation, love the challenge of turning complex ideas into scroll-stopping visuals, and want to make your mark on a brand with global ambition, this is your stage.

Why Join Lucidya?

  • Impact that matters: You won’t just execute - you’ll define the visual storytelling of our brand, influencing how customers across the globe experience Lucidya.
  • Creative ownership: Lead projects from concept to delivery with the freedom to push creative boundaries and leave your mark.
  • Culture of growth: Join a team that values curiosity, collaboration, and continuous learning - where your ideas are heard and your growth is a priority.
  • Be part of something bigger: Work at the intersection of AI, SaaS, and cutting-edge marketing, shaping how businesses in the MENA region (and beyond) connect with their audiences.

Requirements

What You’ll Do

  • Lead end-to-end 2D motion design projects: explainer videos, product showcases, campaigns, and brand storytelling.
  • Conceptualize, storyboard, animate, and collaborate with sound artists to create immersive multimedia experiences.
  • Transform static assets into dynamic, branded visuals in partnership with illustrators and graphic designers.
  • Evolve Lucidya’s visual identity, making motion central to how our brand communicates.
  • Juggle multiple projects while delivering world-class creative at speed.
  • Build and maintain a style guide for animation (by your 6th month).

Your Day-to-Day

  • Brainstorming with copywriters, designers, and marketers on campaign briefs.
  • Creating high-impact motion assets for organic and paid campaigns.
  • Refreshing and optimizing existing visual assets.
  • Actively contributing to creative strategy and storytelling discussions.
  • Driving visual consistency across all marketing channels.

What Makes You a Perfect Fit

  • 5–7 years of experience in motion design, ideally within SaaS/B2B tech storytelling.
  • Degree in Graphic Design, Art, or related fields.
  • Fluency in Adobe After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and Figma.
  • Arabic fluency (or deep experience designing for Arabic audiences).
  • A portfolio that wows - showcasing your 2D motion design mastery (Behance or equivalent required).
  • Comfortable in both startup agility and multinational structures.
  • A big personality with a growth mindset: ambitious, curious, and unafraid to challenge the norm.
  • Bonus: Familiarity with sound design direction.

Non-Negotiables

  • Exceptional 2D motion design skills (with a portfolio to prove it).
  • Arabic fluency (or extensive experience designing for Arabic-speaking audiences).
  • SaaS/B2B tech storytelling experience.
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite + Figma.
  • A proven track record of delivering high-quality creative fast.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

At Lucidya, you’ll join a diverse, ambitious team that feels more like a creative agency inside a tech company. We value speed without compromising craft, encourage bold thinking, and celebrate those who take ownership and make an impact.

If you’re ready to lead Lucidya’s motion revolution, shape our brand’s visual language, and grow alongside one of the region’s most exciting SaaS companies - we want to meet you.
