Lead in the strategy, creation, and development of AI-enabled marketing design deliverables including social graphics, short-form and long form videos, animations, banner ads, custom email templates, landing pages, and presentation design.
Own and evolve AI workflows and production systems — including prompt libraries, reusable templates, tool guides, QA standards, and scalable processes that increase output and consistency across projects.
Partner with Paid Media and Strategy teams to support performance creative needs, including developing modular creative systems and creating variation frameworks to increase testing velocity across channels (Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Display, etc.).
Evaluate, select, and maintain AI tools for team use based on usability, functionality, cost, and workflow alignment, ensuring intuitive adoption and meaningful impact on creative output and efficiency.
Apply and audit a toolkit for generative AI tools (e.g., Midjourney, Firefly, Runway, ChatGPT, Sora, etc.) to enhance ideation and production — ensuring outputs are high-quality, visually consistent, and aligned to brand.
Develop AI-generated mockups and visual concepts to support pitches, client presentations, and internal ideation — translating strategic ideas into compelling creative directions quickly.
Work closely with Directors, Art Directors, Account and Project Managers, and cross-functional teams to concept and develop creative content while following brand guidelines and best practices.
Establish and maintain brand safety and ethical AI usage guardrails, including standards for licensing, usage rights, responsible AI application, and quality control across AI-generated content.
Serve as a trusted resource for team members — mentor and enable designers through AI best practices, prompt development, workflow training, and team-wide QA review processes.
Lead ongoing improvement of internal AI enablement resources including onboarding documentation, training modules, team templates, and recommended toolkits.

Hands-on experience using generative AI tools for design and video production, and the ability to integrate them into a real-world creative production workflow.
Strong ability to build repeatable systems, processes, and documentation — including prompt structures, style references, asset templates, libraries, and QA standards that support scalability and consistency.
Strong understanding of integrated digital marketing and the role creative plays in performance across channels.
Exceptional communication and organizational skills — able to articulate design thinking, workflow strategy, and quality standards to both creative and non-creative audiences.
Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain brand consistency across assets, platforms, and formats.
Strong desire to learn new skills and continue career growth, with a habit of experimentation and knowledge sharing.
Ability to work both independently and in a collaborative team environment.

Familiarity with performance creative strategy and best practices across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Display, and Google Ads.
Strong motion design capability and short-form storytelling experience (Reels, Shorts, TikTok).
