Key Responsibilities

Technology & Workflow Innovation

• AI/ML Integration: Implement state-of-the-art AI/Machine Learning tools to streamline and enhance the creative production process from ideation to delivery.
• Automation Development: Deploy automation solutions for repetitive tasks, focusing on dynamic content creation, asset resizing, localization, personalization, and distribution, particularly for large volumes of digital marketing assets.
• Prototyping & Experimentation: Rapidly prototype new advertising formats, interactive experiences, and creative-technology solutions (e.g., AR/VR filters, data-driven creative) for campaign testing and deployment.
• Tool Stack Management: Act as the technical expert for creative technology tools (e.g., CMS integrations, DCO platforms, asset management systems), ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance within the agency's infrastructure.

Creative Production & Execution

• Data-Driven Creative: Work closely with Data Science and Media teams to translate performance data into actionable creative requirements, building systems that enable real-time asset optimization and personalization at scale.
• Asset Scalability: Design and implement modular creative systems and templates that maximize efficiency across multiple formats, platforms, and language variants required for US and LATAM markets.
• Technical Consultation: Serve as the technical bridge between creative teams, developers, and media platforms, ensuring creative output is technically sound, platform-compliant, and optimized for performance across digital channels (e.g., social, display, programmatic, video).
• Quality Assurance: Define and maintain technical specifications and quality control protocols for automated and AI-generated assets, ensuring brand consistency and market-specific relevance.

Market Focus & Business Impact

• Performance Optimization: Focus production efforts on driving measurable business outcomes: maximizing revenue generation, increasing customer acquisition rates, and improving campaign ROI, especially within the key US and LATAM segments.
• Global Scaling: Develop technologies and processes that enable the rapid scaling of creative campaigns from a core concept into thousands of localized and personalized digital executions.

• Experience: 5+ years of experience in a Creative Technologist, Technical Artist, Creative Developer, or similar role within an agency or in-house creative production environment. Experience supporting large, global tech clients is highly desirable.
• Programming Proficiency: Highly proficient in scripting/programming languages relevant to creative automation (e.g., JavaScript, Python, Node.js, and API integration).
• AI/ML Expertise: Demonstrable experience working with and implementing generative AI models (e.g., image, text, video) and understanding of their application within a commercial creative production pipeline.
• Creative Toolset: Strong understanding of standard creative software workflows (e.g., Adobe Creative Suite) and the ability to interface with these tools programmatically (e.g., ExtendScript, integrating with APIs).
• Digital Platforms: Deep technical knowledge of digital advertising ecosystems, including DCO (Dynamic Creative Optimization) platforms, ad servers, ad formats (HTML5, video), and major social media/programmatic platforms.
• Problem-Solving: Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills with a proven track record of designing efficient, high-volume production systems.
• Language: Fluency in English is required; proficiency in Spanish or Portuguese (due to LATAM focus) is a significant advantage.
