3 months ago
Barcelona
Carrots is a fast‑moving studio building and scaling consumer subscription apps (iOS/Android). We manage meaningful monthly budgets and operate with a strict payback mindset . We’re now hiring a Motion Graphics Designer (Internship) to partner hand‑in‑hand with our UA team —turning ideas into high‑performing creatives for Meta, TikTok, Snap, and UGC . This is a high‑leverage role: you’ll turn creative testing into a repeatable, capital‑efficient acquisition engine —shipping fast, learning faster, and scaling what works. If you love creating creatives that convert , not just look good , this is your place. ⚠️ READ THIS FIRST — Apply only if you meet this: Eligibility: You’re currently studying at a university in Spain (ideally in or near Barcelona) and can sign a "convenio de prácticas". This position is open exclusively for internship agreements. If you’re not sure whether your university can provide one, please confirm with them before applying , as we’ll automatically filter out candidates who can’t meet this requirement. Otherwise, feel free to check out our other junior roles on the Carrots Lab LinkedIn page › Jobs where a "convenio" isn’t required. ⭐ WHAT YOU’LL OWN (Your Mission) Performance Creatives at Scale: Produce a high volume of short‑form video ads (9:16), animations, kinetic typography, and cut‑downs for Meta/TikTok/Snap —built for thumb‑stop, hook, and conversion . AI‑First Creative Pipeline: Use AI image/video tools to concept, generate, and iterate (human‑reviewed), then polish in After Effects/Premiere/CapCut . Creative Testing Framework: Work with the UA team to plan hypotheses, variants, and hooks (e.g., 3‑second hook, CTA, social proof, UGC vs. motion ), and iterate based on results. Data → Creative Loops: Translate performance metrics ( CTR, CVR to trial, CPI ) into creative decisions; scale winners, kill losers, propose next tests. UGC & Trends: Ideate UGC‑style scripts, captions, and overlays that feel native to TikTok/IG Reels/Snap , riding trends without losing brand fit. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE (90 Days) Throughput: A consistent cadence of 20–40 ad variations/week across apps and channels. Winners on the Board: Multiple new creative “families” that beat our CTR/CPI baselines. Systematized Workflow: A documented creative testing playbook and an organized asset library (tags, versions, rights). AI Pipeline Live: Reusable prompts/pipelines for faster ideation and first drafts. Tight Feedback Loop: Weekly creative review with UA → actions for the next sprint (no vanity edits). WHAT YOU’LL DO (Day‑to‑day) Turn briefs into storyboards, scripts, and mood boards , then into finished ads. Edit, animate, caption, and export platform‑native assets (9:16, safe zones, hooks). Build multiple variants (hooks, captions, CTA, colorways, VO/music). Monitor performance dashboards with UA; propose next‑round tests . Maintain an asset library (naming, rights, versions) and share learnings across squads. Ride Gen‑Z trends responsibly—trendjack without chasing fads that don’t convert. ️ WHAT YOU MUST HAVE (Hard Requirements) These are non‑negotiable. Please apply only if you meet all of them.

AI‑first: Comfortable using AI image/video tools to ideate and speed up production (human‑reviewed). Speed & Volume: Ability to ship lots of clean variants without sacrificing clarity or brand fit.
