1 Line JD - A senior art director role for someone who turns briefs into brand and performance creative that actually moves the needle - built for India's fastest-growing AI skilling company. ?

Our Mission The organization exists to close India's AI skills gap - turning working professionals and ambitious learners into industry-ready talent through outcome-focused, AI-native education. Bootstrapped and scaling rapid, it has set out to become India's fastest-growing AI skilling brand, built on high agency, rapid execution, and a hustle-first culture where ideas move from whiteboard to launch in days, not quarters.

About The Org The organization is a fast-scaling, B2C AI skilling company - training working professionals and learners through online programs (with select offline immersions) in AI and emerging tech. Bootstrapped from day one and now roughly 300 people strong, it has positioned itself as India's fastest-growing AI skilling brand.

Its culture runs on high agency and fast execution: small teams, big ownership, and a bias toward shipping over deliberating. It is unapologetically AI-native in how it builds - and hires people who are just as comfortable using AI tools as they are being visually or strategically sharp.

If you want to build brand and performance creative inside a business that moves at start-up speed but already operates at scale, this is your sandbox.

The Role The organization is looking for a Senior Art Director to elevate its brand and performance creative across marketing, paid media, and brand-led campaigns. This is an individual-contributor role that exists to translate business and consumer insight into high-performing creative - concepting campaigns, mentoring designers, and building visual stories that strengthen the brand while driving measurable impact.
