You will be embedded with the Social team, bringing content to life in ways that resonate with our large and highly engaged community.
Responsibilities
- Design and illustrate a wide range of social and community content, from platform graphics and campaign assets to reactive, in-the-moment illustrations, across a variety of styles, including characters, visual effects, objects, and environments.
- Conceptualize and execute quick-turnaround creative that captures cultural moments and community conversations, often within same-day or next-day timelines.
- Partner closely with the Social team to translate ideas, copy, and campaign concepts into visually compelling graphic design and illustration.
- Collaborate with other creatives, including illustrators, motion designers, and brand designers, to maintain a consistent and expressive visual voice across platforms.
- Manage multiple concurrent requests, prioritizing and communicating proactively as timelines shift.
- Give and receive constructive feedback in critiques and live reviews, iterating toward the strongest outcome under tight deadlines.
Requirements
- A portfolio demonstrating expressive, high-craft illustration and graphic design work across a range of styles, ideally including fast-turnaround or social and content-driven work.
- 2+ years of design or production experience at an in-house creative team, social or content studio, or agency, ideally in tech, gaming, or entertainment.
- Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, with a strong eye for composition, color, typography, and visual hierarchy.
- Comfort working at speed without sacrificing craft, with the ability to turn around polished creative within hours or a single day when needed.
- Experience working within brand guidelines to produce work that feels native to an established visual identity.
- Comfort presenting creative concepts and articulating design decisions to cross-functional partners.
- Ability to take feedback, iterate, and deliver production-ready assets that meet both creative and technical requirements.
