The role:

SoFi is looking for a skilled and highly organized art director/designer to help drive a large-scale marketing asset update project. This is a contract role through mid-December, with the possibility of extension into Q1 2026.

Youll be an integral part of a dedicated team making critical compliance-driven refreshes across multiple channels. Your focus: translate requirements into on-brand visual solutions, update existing creative at scale, and ensure a high volume of assets are production-ready, approved, and delivered on time. Youll also jump in on net-new creative when needed. While you have the capability of creating visual solutions, you also enjoy producing and delivering assets.

Youll partner closely with our in-house Creative Studio, project management, compliance, and channel teams to make sure nothing slips through the cracks. In short, youll need excellent visual judgment and extreme attention to detail.

  • Collaborate with copywriters, editors, and compliance officers to place disclosures and fine print accurately without compromising design clarity.
  • Partner with project management to hit turnaround times (sometimes tight) and keep work moving through reviews and approvals.
  • QA for pixel perfection: check spacing, typography, contrast, link states, superscript alignment, and disclosure placement across devices and file exports.
  • Prepare production-ready files (naming, versioning, export specs) and hand off cleanly to channel owners and developers.

What youll need:

  • 3+ years designing for multiple asset types (email, web, digital, social, video/motion a plus) and working within a brand system.
  • A strong portfolio showing clear visual hierarchy, typography, and systems thinking across performance and lifecycle marketing work.
  • Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud; basic motion knowledge a plus.
  • Comfort working with compliance partners and regulated review workflows.
  • Sharp QA instincts and obsessive attention to detail.
  • Clear, proactive communicator who builds strong cross-functional relationships.
  • A practical problem solveryou dont wait for direction when specs are ambiguous; you get the clarity needed and keep moving.
  • Ability to manage time and hit deadlines without sacrificing quality.
  • Experience working with legal disclaimers/disclosures and placing them for clarity and readability.

Nice to have:

  • Experience in Fintech or Financial industry is a plus.
  • Ad agency experience is preferred.
  • Post production experience is also preferred.
