Sr. Production Designer
About the role
You will own the end-to-end production of paid social and digital display assets across Meta, LinkedIn, Google Display, YouTube, and programmatic channels—resizing, adapting, and optimizing creative for each platform's technical specs.
Build and maintain scalable, reusable templates in Figma and Adobe tools that accelerate production velocity across the Growth Marketing team.
Manage a high-volume production queue across multiple concurrent campaigns, communicating timelines proactively and escalating blockers early.
Execute A/B creative variants to support performance experiments, ensuring each version is visually distinct enough to generate actionable signal.
Collaborate closely with campaign managers and performance marketers to translate briefs into launch-ready assets, asking the right questions when briefs need more definition.
Modify motion graphics, animated ads, and short-form video edits for digital campaigns, bringing energy and precision to assets that stop the scroll and drive clicks.
Support photography selection for advertising campaigns, curating images from Samsara's asset library and stock sources that align with campaign objectives, brand aesthetics, and audience context.
Perform photo retouching and compositing to prepare advertising imagery for final use—including color correction, background cleanup, and light adjustments—ensuring every visual feels polished and on-brand at scale.
Maintain brand consistency at scale, accurately applying Samsara's visual identity across a high volume of assets and catching inconsistencies before they ship.
Champion operational excellence by continuously improving file naming conventions, folder structures, and cross-functional handoff workflows.
Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.
