Use performance data (CTR, impressions, retention) to guide creative decisions and continuously improve thumbnail performance. Establish design standards, templates, and best practices that scale across different clients and content categories. Analyze trends in visual performance across platforms and leverage those insights to keep YAAS ahead of the curve. Collaborate with the marketing and analytics teams to A/B test thumbnails and track results to measurable outcomes. Ensure design consistency while maintaining flexibility for diverse brand voices and visual identities. Build a creative environment that encourages experimentation, bold ideas, and speed without compromising quality. Qualifications Proven experience as a Thumbnail Designer, Lead Graphic Designer, or Design Manager with a focus on performance-driven digital content. A strong portfolio showcasing thumbnails or visual campaigns that demonstrate measurable success (CTR, engagement, or growth metrics). Deep understanding of YouTube and Instagram algorithms, click-through psychology, and what drives viewer curiosity. Experience managing and mentoring design teams in a fast-paced, creative environment. Strong project management and workflow optimization skills. Required Skills Advanced proficiency in Adobe Photoshop (or similar tools). Deep understanding of color, composition, and typography for mobile-first design. Strategic mindset with the ability to balance aesthetics, storytelling, and performance data. Knowledge of visual trends, audience psychology, and high-performing creative patterns on social media. Excellent communication and leadership skills — able to inspire creativity while maintaining efficiency and accountability. Ability to manage multiple projects, clients, and brand identities simultaneously.
