Your Role at MediaLab
MediaLab is a media and technology company that acquires and grows leading social, messaging, and entertainment platforms. Our portfolio includes Genius, Imgur, WorldStarHipHop, and more.
We’re looking for a midweight designer to deliver strategic and visually compelling solutions for branded content campaigns and support broader marketing materials. This role requires a sharp eye for design and motion, awareness of emerging trends, and the ability to create cohesive, elevated aesthetics that align with both brand partners and platform narratives.
You’ll shape campaigns from concept to execution—developing thoughtful visual systems that are not only visually impactful but also strategically effective. While Genius will be a primary focus, you’ll also contribute to projects across our wider portfolio—including Imgur, WorldStarHipHop, and future brands—ensuring consistency and cohesive identities across all platforms.
Please note: We are currently only hiring applicants located in the New York or Los Angeles regions for this role.
What You’ll Do
- Translate briefs into visually compelling, strategically sound creative across social, editorial, digital experiences, in-person activations, and video.
- Collaborate closely with production, social, and knowledge teams to develop campaign narratives that seamlessly integrate both Genius and the brand’s identity.
- Adapt client brand guidelines in a way that feels authentic to Genius while meeting campaign goals.
- Execute hands-on design work, including social assets, editorial content, video graphics, GIFs, and mockups.
- Develop graphic treatments, mockups, and pre-production materials for custom video content.
- Support the marketing team with presentation design, deck updates, and visual storytelling for brand pitches.
- Manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting tight deadlines.
What We’re Looking For
- 3–5 years of experience at a publisher, agency, or studio
- A strategic thinker with the ability to connect design choices to broader campaign goals and clearly articulate those decisions
- A strong aesthetic sensibility with an eye for design trends and the ability to elevate branded content
- Experience designing for social, editorial, digital, in-person (IRL), and video formats, with the ability to adapt designs across mediums
- Basic motion design skills, including the ability to create light animation and motion graphics to enhance video and social assets
- A proactive communicator and problem-solver—an independent self-starter who can contribute meaningfully throughout the process
- Experience working across various brands and verticals; a background in music, culture, or fashion is a plus
- An understanding of online communities and how to engage with them
- Proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects; familiarity with a CMS and Figma; comfortable using Keynote and Google Slides for presentation design
- This is a remote role, with a preference for candidates located in New York or Los Angeles
