Your diverse experience helps you adapt as team needs come through, all in the pursuit of making KAYAK the travel brand people actually give a s%$& about.

What you'll do here:
Design and animate engaging motion graphics for a variety of digital platforms, including web, social media and video.
Create static designs for landing pages, client pages and product that align with KAYAK's brand identity and marketing goals.

Develop and present storyboards and design mocks to articulate creative concepts and visual approaches.
Collaborate with the marketing, social and creative teams to understand project requirements and deliver high-quality visual content.
Apply Figma for design collaboration and After Effects for animation projects.
