Reports to: Creative Director

Location: Austin, TX preferred | Orange County, CA second

Status: Full-time, Hybrid

We’re looking for a performance marketing-focused Creative Designer to join an ambitious, fast-moving growth agency with SoCal roots and a newly-established office in Austin, TX. As the right hand to our Creative Director, you’ll assist in both creative conception and execution across high-performing paid social.

The designer we’re looking for:

• Uses AI tools to work faster and smarter with a portfolio that demonstrates this
• Is capable of concepting, designing, editing, and iterating high-converting, high-volume social ads
• Has a strong understanding of performance marketing-focused design

This is a hybrid role for someone who can crack the concept and build it - translating performance insights into high-converting ad creative (without hand-holding).

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary (depends on experience) + strong performance bonus plan
• Flexible PTO
• 17 paid holidays
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 401(k)
• Monthly cell phone/gym stipend
• Ongoing learning and platform training

What You’ll Do

• Scale brands to 7+ figures/month in ad spend with an initial focus on telehealth and next-gen wellness brands
• Develop angles, hooks, and creative concepts rooted in performance data
• Personally execute on creative (video, UGC, static, carousel) when needed
• Build out concepts into fully formed ad variations ready for testing
• Partner with media buyers, BI, and creative teams to iterate quickly
• Maintain alignment with overall brand guidelines and creative direction
• Help scale creative testing frameworks (volume, velocity, iteration)

You’ve Likely

• Helped scale DTC brands (wellness, beauty, supplements, consumer, etc.)
• Operated in accounts spending $500K–$1M+/month
• Taken ideas from concept → execution → performance iteration
• Built creative that directly impacted ROAS, CPA, CTR, CVR
• Have strong design + video instincts (you know what converts and why)
• Thrived in fast-paced, high-volume testing environments

What We’re Looking For

• A builder + thinker - equally comfortable concepting and executing
• A strong creative portfolio - we’ll want to see your works and growth metrics
• Someone who doesn’t need hand-holding to bring ideas to life
• Strong creative instincts with a clear understanding of performance data
• Collaborative and low-ego - able to operate as a true right hand partner
• Detail-oriented, fast-moving, and highly iterative

This is a creative strategist role for someone who understands how design choices drive performance - and can partner tightly with media buyers and creative teams to scale what works.
