About The Position

Finch, a performance marketing agency serving e-commerce and DTC brands, is hiring a Production Artist for its Creative team. The role turns creative briefs into finished, launch-ready digital advertising assets for Meta, Google Performance Max, email, and programmatic display. The focus is on fast, accurate execution: building, resizing, and adapting assets to platform specifications while following each client’s existing brand system.

This is an hourly, project-based independent contractor role that starts during the seasonal peak and offers flexible hours. The position is remote for someone based in Latin America, with at least four hours of overlap with US Eastern working hours. The Production Artist collaborates asynchronously with a distributed team and works with client brand kits, tools, and asset libraries.

Requirements

• Three to five years of experience as a production artist or production designer creating digital ad assets to platform specifications, ideally at an agency serving multiple client brands.
• A portfolio showing Meta ads and display banners built to specification.
• Advanced Photoshop and Illustrator skills, including masking, retouching, compositing, vector work, and producing clean, layered files.
• Fluency in Canva, including brand kits, templates, and resizing.
• Hands-on experience with AI design tools such as Claude Design or Gemini, and judgment about when they help or hinder the work.
• Working knowledge of aspect ratios, safe zones, file-size limits, and text guidelines for major advertising platforms.
• Experience matching multiple clients’ existing brand systems without visual drift and quickly learning new client tools.
• Strong written and spoken English for asynchronous collaboration.
• Residence in Latin America and at least four hours of overlap with US Eastern working hours.
• Availability to work hourly on a project basis as an independent contractor.

Nice To Haves

• Motion skills, such as creating animated variants from static designs using After Effects, HTML5, GIF banners, or Lottie.
• Experience editing short-form social video in Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar tools.
• Experience using AI video tools such as Runway.
• Comfort working in shared client Figma files.
• Email design experience within email service provider constraints, ideally Klaviyo.
• Experience producing work for DTC or e-commerce brands.

Responsibilities

• Build static, carousel, and short-form video Meta ad assets for Feed, Stories, and Reels.
• Create Google Performance Max asset groups, including images in required ratios, logos, and short video.
• Produce email headers, hero images, product modules, and GIFs to client email-platform specifications.
• Produce static and animated programmatic display banners in standard IAB sizes.
• Translate creative briefs into finished assets and all requested variations, raising questions early when needed.
• Rebuild, resize, and reformat existing client assets for new channels and placements while following client brand kits and using tools such as Canva, Figma, and client asset libraries.
• Quality-check assets against platform specifications and the brief.
• Deliver organized, launch-ready folders that follow naming, versioning, and export conventions.

Benefits

• Flexible hours.
• Fully distributed, global team.
• Meaningful impact on client outcomes and company growth.
• A culture of curiosity, transparency, and ownership.
• Collaboration with specialists across paid search, paid social, SEO, DSP, creative, and analytics.
• Encouragement of experimentation, cross-training, and growth.
• Emphasis on work-life balance and high performance without overwork.
