đź“Ť Location: Noida (Onsite)
At LoudLabs, design is not about making things look good.
It is about making news visible, understandable, and impossible to ignore.
We work with India’s leading digital news channel, where every visual competes with infinite scroll, breaking news, and shrinking attention spans across YouTube and Instagram.
This role is not limited to thumbnails.
It covers the entire visual layer of digital news.
If you design only for aesthetics or only for one platform, this role will frustrate you.
You understand that clarity beats cleverness
You can design for context switching between platforms
You think in hierarchy, contrast, and emotion
You know visuals must change based on where they live
You care about performance, not personal taste
Design YouTube thumbnails that earn clicks without misleading
Create Instagram graphics for:
Reels covers
Feed posts
Carousels
Stories
Translate breaking news into fast, clear visual formats
Build visual systems that scale across daily news output
Work closely with editors and social teams on packaging
Create multiple design variants and iterate based on performance
Maintain visual consistency without slowing speed
You are not designing posters.
You are designing attention under pressure.
Thumbnails are legible in one glance on mobile
Instagram posts are shared, not just liked
Visuals explain the story even without captions
Design adapts to platform behavior, not the other way around
CTR, saves, and shares improve over time
If your design decisions cannot be explained, they won’t survive here.
Designers who only want to do “branding” work
Designers who dislike iteration and feedback
People who design one visual and move on
Anyone uncomfortable with performance metrics
This role exposes weak instincts quickly.
Strong command over Photoshop, Illustrator, or equivalent tools
Clear understanding of YouTube and Instagram design mechanics
Ability to design fast without losing clarity
Experience with digital-first content
Motion skills are a plus.
Judgment is mandatory.
Your work reaches millions every day
Direct feedback from real audience behaviour
Freedom to experiment and test
Growth based on impact, not tenure
A team that treats design as strategy, not support
