Calling All Creative Thinkers: Build the Future of Advertising at Ronin Labs 📌Job Title: Art Director (4–6 Years Experience) 📍

Location: Mumbai (On-site) ✔️

Mandatory: Prior experience in an Advertising, Digital or Integrated Creative Agency.

About Ronin Labs Ronin Labs is a creative technology studio co-founded by industry veterans combining 20+ years of creative direction with 20+ years of gaming and product technology expertise. We work at the intersection of advertising, design, technology and AI, creating platform-native experiences that help brands stay ahead of culture. From Meta-first campaigns and creator-led content to AI-powered storytelling and digital experiences, we believe the future of advertising belongs to those willing to rethink how ideas are created and consumed. As a

Meta Badge Partner , we work closely with leading brands and agencies to develop creative solutions that combine strategic thinking with platform expertise and emerging creative technologies.

Who We're Looking For We're looking for an Art Director with

4–6 years of experience who's excited about where advertising is headed. You come from an

advertising, digital or integrated agency background and have built experience creating campaigns across social media, digital platforms, websites, branded content or integrated campaigns. You've worked alongside copywriters, filmmakers, designers, strategists and production teams, and understand how ideas evolve from concept to execution. More importantly, you're curious. You believe that the future of advertising isn't just television or print anymore. It's creators. It's short-form video. It's AI.

It's platform-first thinking . You don't necessarily have to be an expert motion designer or editor today. If you have strong creative fundamentals, an eye for craft, and a genuine excitement to learn new tools and workflows, we'll help you build those skills. We're looking for someone who wants to become one of the next generation of creative leaders.

Key Responsibilities:

• Think of creative concepts and campaigns built specifically for Meta and other digital platforms.
• Create compelling, platform-native ideas for Reels, short-form video and creator-led content.
• Collaborate closely with writers, strategists, motion designers, editors and AI artists to bring ideas to life.
• Design storyboards, visual systems and creative directions across campaigns.
• Participate in creative brainstorming sessions and contribute ideas from concept through execution.
• Work alongside production teams and actively participate in shoots when required.
• Explore and experiment with AI-powered creative workflows across image, video and motion generation.
• Stay ahead of platform trends, creator behaviour and emerging storytelling formats.
• Ensure every piece of work is visually compelling, strategically sound and built for today's audiences.

Qualifications & Skills:

• 4–6 years of experience in an advertising, digital or creative agency.
• Strong understanding of branding, advertising and the digital media landscape.
• Excellent conceptual thinking and visual storytelling abilities.
• Strong graphic design fundamentals including typography, layout, composition and colour.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop and Illustrator).
• Working knowledge of After Effects or an understanding of motion design principles is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with editing workflows and short-form content creation is an advantage.
• Curiosity and willingness to learn AI creative tools and emerging production pipelines.
• Experience working on content shoots or collaborating with production teams is desirable.
• Knowledge of Blender, Cinema 4D or other 3D software, or an understanding of 3D production pipelines, is a bonus.

Is This Role For Me? You'll probably enjoy this role if...

• You love advertising but believe its future lies in digital-first storytelling.
• You enjoy building ideas specifically for Reels, creators and social platforms.
• You're a strong graphic designer who's excited to expand into motion, AI and new creative technologies.
• You constantly save great ads, creator content and campaigns that inspire you.
• You're curious about how AI is changing creativity and want to be part of that journey.
• You enjoy collaborating across disciplines and working with writers, strategists, editors, filmmakers and technologists.
• You're excited by experimentation and aren't afraid to try something new.

Why Ronin Labs?

• Help build one of India's most exciting creative-tech studios.
• Work with leading brands, agencies and Meta on platform-first creative.
• Collaborate with creatives, strategists, filmmakers, technologists and AI artists under one roof.
• Get hands-on exposure to the latest AI creative workflows, creator ecosystems and emerging technologies.
• Grow beyond traditional art direction and help define what the next generation of advertising looks like.
