The Role
Design high-impact brand, web, campaign, social, presentation, event, and demand-generation creative. Use AI tools including Claude Code and Claude Design for ideation and production, build scalable Figma design systems, create motion content, visualize complex data, and contribute to web and campaign projects in Framer. Collaborate with Marketing, Sales, Product, and Leadership while managing multiple projects and maintaining high creative standards.
Summary Generated by Built In
Samba connects the advertising industry. Today, a trillion dollars of media flows through platforms that don’t talk to each other, and each one measures its own results. We built the independent alternative: consented first-party data and AI that give the world’s biggest advertisers, publishers, and platforms one clear view across all of it.
The next era of advertising will run on AI agents, and those agents will need data they can trust. We’re building that foundation, and the agents that act on it. Join us and help build what the industry runs on.
You work at the intersection of design craft and AI, using Claude Code and Claude Design as fluently as Figma, as a core workflow for ideation, production, and creative output. You translate complex data and technology concepts into clear, compelling visual stories across brand, web, campaigns, social, presentations, and events, as part of an agile creative team where your work has real visibility and impact.
- Design High-Impact Creative: Design high-impact creative across brand, web, campaign, social, presentation, event, and demand generation formats.
- Work AI-First: Use Claude Code and Claude Design daily to accelerate ideation, prototyping, and production; you should already be doing this, not learning it on the job.
- Build Design Systems: Build and evolve design systems in Figma that scale across a growing brand.
- Create Motion Content: Design and animate motion content, using AI-assisted animation tools (Runway, Midjourney video, Higgsfield, or similar) alongside traditional motion craft.
- Visualize Data: Turn complex data into clear, engaging visual narratives through compelling data visualization, and design polished presentations and sales materials.
- Build Web and Campaigns: Contribute to the Samba website and campaign builds, working within Framer and modern web and design tooling.
- Collaborate and Stay Current: Manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment, collaborate with Marketing, Sales, Product, and Leadership, and stay current on design trends and emerging AI tools.
What You Bring
- 7+ years of professional design experience, with a portfolio showing strong conceptual thinking, visual storytelling, and creative problem-solving across brand, web, and campaign work.
- AI-forward by default: genuinely fluent using Claude Code and Claude Design in your actual design workflow, not just aware of them.
- Expert-level Figma skills, solid fluency in Google Suite, and strong data visualization design ability.
- Animation experience with real exposure to AI-driven animation and video-generation tools: you know how to direct and refine output, not just prompt and hope.
- Experience developing brand and marketing creative across digital, social, video, and experiential formats, with the communication skills to present your work and integrate feedback from multiple stakeholders.
- Self-directed and well-organized, keeping projects moving without close oversight, with a sharp eye for detail and a high bar for craft.
- Nice to have: Framer, deeper motion and animation background (After Effects, Lottie, CSS/JS animation), social-first design experience, and a degree in design, fine arts, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
