Responsibilities
Duolingo’s Brand Campaigns team creates culture-first ideas that earn attention, strengthen our brand, and inspire people to learn. We’re looking for an Associate Creative Director (art) to develop and deliver integrated campaigns that are unmistakably Duolingo. As a senior individual contributor, you’ll combine hands-on concepting with creative direction. You can turn brand strategy, cultural insights, and business goals into compelling work across social, video, experiential, out-of-home, partnerships, and emerging channels. You’ll partner closely with Brand Campaigns, Social, Product Marketing, PR, and global teams to guide ideas from brief through launch while maintaining a highest standard of craft.
Develop original concepts and creative platforms for integrated brand campaigns, partnerships, product launches, and cultural moments.
Translate strategy and cultural insights into clear creative territories, narratives, and channel-specific executions.
Lead creative development from brief through launch, including concepting, presentations, production, feedback, and final delivery.
Create work directly while guiding designers, writers, animators, filmmakers, agencies, and production partners toward a cohesive vision.
Present creative recommendations to partners and senior leaders, explaining how the work supports the audience insight, brand strategy, and campaign goals.
Partner with Brand Campaigns, Social, Product Marketing, PR, Growth, regional marketers, and Analytics to build ideas that work across channels and markets.
Protect and evolve Duolingo’s voice and visual identity while adapting ideas for different audiences, platforms, and cultural contexts.
Use campaign results, audience response, and post-launch learnings to improve future creative work.
Mentor creative collaborators through clear direction and actionable feedback without direct people-management responsibility.
A portfolio of integrated consumer-brand work that demonstrates original thinking, strong craft, measurable business impact, and has broken through in-culture.
Experience developing campaigns across multiple formats and channels, such as social, film, out-of-home, experiential, partnerships, and digital.
