Requirements

Experience: 5+ years designing campaign creative at a digital or creative agency, with a portfolio that shows range across paid social, email, display, and landing pages.
Technical Proficiency: Strong technical skills and in-depth knowledge of Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, including After Effects, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
Animation Skills: Ability to bring static designs to life with light motion using After Effects or similar tools.
Platform Fluency: Solid working knowledge of best practices, technical specs, and campaign objectives for Meta and Google Display.
AI-Integrated Workflow: You're actively using AI tools in your creative process, for concepting, image generation, or production, and you can show how it's made your work sharper without sacrificing craft.
Design Fundamentals: A strong eye for typography, grid systems, color theory, information hierarchy, and composition, and the instincts to know when to follow the rules and when to break them.
Systems Thinker: You design campaigns, not just assets. Your work holds together across formats, placements, and scale.
High Standards, Small Details: You sweat the details and self-edit well. You bring the same level of care to a quick-turn ad as you do to a full campaign.
Self-Starter: You take initiative, manage your own workload, and drive projects from concept to completion without needing to be pushed.
Collaborative and Direct: You work well with copywriters, strategists, and clients. You speak up when you have questions, take feedback well, and make the people around you better.
