  • Work with email team colleagues to ensure designs are mobile optimized and suitable for the email channel
  • Create original graphics and creative assets optimized for email
  • Keep up to date with the latest developments and trends in email design and share findings with the team. Use findings to ensure Litmus email designs are ahead of the curve

  • Experience with HTML and CSS
  • Ability to create email-friendly animated GIFs is a plus
  • Knowledge and hands-on experience with Litmus is a plus
  • Experience using Pardot, Campaign Monitor, or other ESPs is a plus

Benefits:

We offer everything you’d expect from a financially successful and profitable startup, except we’ve been going strong for ten years.

  • Great salary, comprehensive health care benefits, and a generous retirement plan match.
  • 28 days of paid vacation—that’s on top of team retreats and public holidays
  • Family friendly. Flexible schedules along with generous maternity and paternity policies.
  • Remote friendly culture. You’ll benefit from the first-class remote experience we’ve created—giving you the flexibility to work remotely when you need to, along with the tools and resources you need to succeed.
