Design
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
🎬 We’re hiring: Communication Designer (2–4 yrs)
Communication Design | Growth + Brand | AI-friendly (and proud of it)
📍 Location: Bengaluru
We’re building India’s #1 Micro-Drama app (yes, that booming category). The kind of place where stories drop fast, trends shift faster, and your design gets seen by millions, not just your manager and your mom.
If you spot design flaws in Netflix and whisper “kerning…” under your breath, welcome home. 😌
🧠 What you’ll do (aka your daily drama)
-
Create high-performing marketing creatives for social + performance campaigns
-
Design thumb-stopping assets: thumbnails, story ads, reels covers, carousels, banners, app store creatives & many more
-
Turn briefs into concepts fast & turn concepts into 10 variations faster
-
Understand audience-first design (not just “trend-first design”)
Because what works for Gen Z won’t work for your mom’s WhatsApp group 😄 -
Work closely with Growth, Content, Brand & Product teams to ship creatives at speed
-
Keep an eye on social trends, meme formats, hooks, and editing styles
-
Use AI like a weapon (a peaceful one): ideation, exploration, mockups, variants, motion, resizing & many more
-
Maintain brand consistency while still keeping it fresh (yes, both)

-
Have 2–4 years of experience in marketing/brand/communication design (startup experience = bonus)
-
Are fast + structured: you can hustle without becoming chaotic
-
Have strong fundamentals: layout, typography, hierarchy, color, composition
-
Know how to design for performance (CTR/retention vibes) and not just “pretty”
-
Can take feedback without taking it personally (we roast the design, not the designer 🤝)
-
Can spot what’s “off” in a creative in 3 seconds (and fix it in 30)
-
Understand prompting as a skill:
“What’s in my mind should reach the output” via AI tools + smart iteration
🛠 Must-have toolkit
-
AI (all latest models and platforms), Figma, Adobe Suite
-
AI workflows: image/video generation, upscaling, background cleanup, rapid variations
-
Ability to produce quick variants and clean final files
-

A portfolio that shows: marketing creatives + thinking + execution
✨ Good to have (but we’ll still talk if you don’t)
-
Motion graphics (After Effects / Premiere / CapCut / etc.)
-
Basic video editing sense (hooks, pacing, transitions)
-
A little copy sense (hooks, punchlines, headline rhythm)
-
Knowledge of Indian pop culture / micro-drama / web series ecosystem
📈 What “success” looks like in this role
-
You consistently ship quality creatives at speed
-
Your designs improve CTR, installs, watch time or other clear growth metrics

You build mini-systems/templates so we don’t reinvent the wheel every day

You an AI Maestro in making
