About CoLab
At CoLab, we want to help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner.
We believe the fastest moving engineering teams in the world will soon automate all of the tedious aspects of design reviews—and CoLab is how they’ll do it. Our cloud-based platform enables collaborative, effective design conversations directly in the context of CAD.
Now, we’re building ReviewAI. By capturing expert knowledge and organizing feedback data, we’ve made it possible for AI to AutoReview drawings and 3D models. Now, engineers can spend less time on simple drawing checks and more time on tough technical problems.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Multimedia Producer to bring CoLab's story to life through product animations and motion-driven video content.
You’ll bring video projects to life once the core concept is defined. That means collaborating on the storyboard (which may originate from product marketing, field marketing, demand gen, or content), reviewing and challenging the creative direction, and then owning the execution from finalized storyboard through to the finished product.
Your work will fall into two core categories:
- Product Marketing Animations: You’ll design and animate videos that show how CoLab works, with a focus on visual clarity and compelling storytelling. These are multi-step engineering workflows that don’t come across in static images or screen recordings. You’ll help bring them to life with UI simulation, motion design, and animation that focus the viewer’s attention exactly where it needs to be.
- Demand Generation & Social Video: These videos will have faster turnaround times and higher volume. You might be editing clips of the CEO giving a talk or a customer providing a testimonial—shorter live-action edits that highlight real voices and social proof. These can be 30–60 seconds in length and published multiple times per week.
What Success Looks Like
By the end of your first quarter, success means:
- Publishing one thoughtful, animated product marketing video per month
- Shipping at least three short-form, live-action or social-ready video clips per week
Longer term, the goal is to ramp up to:
- Two product marketing animations per month, working toward one per week as processes mature
- Sustaining a consistent cadence of short-form video content across campaigns and platforms
This mix of high-velocity social clips and deeper product explainers will give CoLab a constant video presence, tailored to each stage of the buyer journey.
Our Ideal Candidate
- You’re creatively driven, but deeply practical. You love the craft of motion design and want your work to make a real impact.
- You have high standards and treat feedback as a way to sharpen your work—not a personal critique. You’ll revise something 12 times if that’s what it takes to make it excellent.
- You understand how to show—not just tell—how a technical product works. You bring a technical curiosity that helps you translate complex concepts into clean, sharp visuals.
- You’re equal parts animator, motion designer, and editor. You know how to stage product moments, simulate UI interactions, and add visual polish that elevates the viewer experience.
- You know how to curate music, voiceover style, transitions, and graphic overlays to create a cohesive brand identity—so that every video feels like a “CoLab video” the moment it starts.
- You’re motivated by visibility. You want to see your work out in the world, shared by teams and seen by future customers.
Job Responsibilities
- Take finalized storyboards and scripts and turn them into polished, engaging video assets
- Collaborate with the CEO, CMO, and marketing team to review, challenge, and refine storyboards
- Design and animate product marketing videos that enhance clarity and showcase CoLab’s capabilities
- Create high-volume, short-form demand-gen and social videos that drive visibility and engagement
- Animate or enhance product workflows using motion design techniques to direct viewer focus and improve comprehension
- Curate audio, voiceover, and visual assets to align with CoLab’s brand and tone
- Manage projects from storyboard handoff through final delivery on a fast, iterative schedule
Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience in a motion design, animation, or multimedia production role, ideally in a B2B tech environment
- Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, including After Effects and Premiere Pro (or equivalent tools like Figma, Blender, etc.)
- A strong portfolio of animated product explainers, UI simulations, or motion-driven content
- Ability to translate technical workflows into digestible, visually compelling animated formats
- Bonus: experience with 3D animation, Lottie, or engineering-related software
Extra Details
- This is a full-time, permanent position with a competitive compensation package that includes stock options.
- Extended health and benefits package, unlimited paid vacation, and RRSP matching.
- Remote-friendly: you can work from anywhere in North America, with access to our HQ in St. John’s, NL.
