YouTube Thumbnail Designer
to join our team and create high-performing YouTube thumbnails across several growing channels focused on technology, AI, SaaS, tutorials, and educational content.

Responsibilities
- Design eye-catching, high-CTR thumbnails for YouTube videos.
- Create compelling visual concepts using composition, contrast, facial expression, typography, and color psychology.
- Use AI tools for image generation, editing, and workflow optimization where appropriate.
- Generate or enhance visuals using AI image generation tools when required (backgrounds, objects, scenes, character consistency).
- Perform advanced retouching, cutouts, compositing, and color grading.
- Collaborate with producers, editors, and channel owners on thumbnail concepts and title–thumbnail alignment.
- Follow channel design styles and brand guidelines.




- Produce thumbnail variations for A/B testing.

Requirements
- At least 1 year of Experience designing thumbnails for YouTube channels.
- Strong Experience with AI image tools such as Nano Banana Pro, Midjourney, Flux or similar.
- Heavy, hands-on experience with AI image generation and editing tools — this is a core part of the role, not a bonus.
- Strong proficiency with modern designer tools (Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma, Canva, Illustrator, or equivalent).
- Ability to work efficiently under tight deadlines.
- Robust portfolio showcasing previous thumbnail or design work.
- Good English proficiency for understanding briefs and feedback.
- Strong attention to detail, typography, and visual hierarchy.
