Role Overview

Mint Source is hiring a Graphic Designer (Static Ads) to support a performance marketing agency that scales e-commerce brands through full-funnel ad campaigns and in-house creative production. You'll design ads using various styles of typography and layouts that stop the scroll and communicate fast. The role leans 80% independent work with focused collaboration alongside other designers. Success looks like hitting weekly quotas of approved designs while maintaining quality, consistency, and speed. It's a great fit if you enjoy rapid creative testing, smart constraints, and using AI extensively to accelerate your work.

What You'll Do

• Design static ad creatives that use strong typography, hierarchy, and layout to drive attention and clarity
• Translate simple briefs and brand guidelines into multiple on-brand variations for testing
• Use Photoshop as your primary design tool for fast, precise production and retouching; leverage Figma as a secondary tool for layout systems and feedback
• Incorporate AI tools to ideate, explore styles, and generate efficient variations without sacrificing craft
• Produce 9-10 composites per day consistently while maintaining design quality
• Iterate based on feedback, simplifying messages to what matters most
• Collaborate with fellow designers to share patterns, templates, and best practices that speed production
• Communicate timelines, blockers, and tradeoffs proactively through written channels (Slack, email)
  

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years of graphic design experience, with a portfolio that highlights ad creatives or conversion-minded visuals
• High proficiency in Photoshop (this is your must-have tool) for compositing, typography, and rapid iteration under deadlines
• Comfort working in Figma for layouts, components, and collaborative reviews
• Hands-on experience using AI in the design process, you'll be using it extensively with this team
• Experience creating advertisements is required; Facebook or paid social experience is a plus
• Thoughtful and methodical approach, balancing creativity with disciplined file hygiene and consistency
• Calm under pressure with strong prioritization skills to meet daily and weekly quotas without cutting corners
• Clear written communicator who thrives in an 80% independent, 20% collaborative workflow and welcomes feedback
  

Key Performance Metrics (KPIs)

• Number of approved designs shipped per week, consistently meeting agreed targets (9-10 composites/day)
• Regular check-ins (weekly/monthly) to review output quality, flag blockers, and align on priorities
  

What You Get

• Competitive compensation based on experience & geography
  
• Remote-first setup with clear priorities, structured feedback loops, and regularly scheduled check-ins
• High-volume, real-world projects that sharpen your eye for performance and messaging
• Autonomy to own your work, plus collaboration with a skilled design team
• Opportunities to grow your AI-enabled design toolkit and build scalable creative systems
• International exposure through Mint Source's network and a predictable work schedule
• Back-office support from Mint Source for payroll, onboarding, and HR
