About Hightouch

Hightouch is the Agentic Marketing Platform powered by the industry-leading Composable CDP: AI marketing that actually knows your brand, customers, and business. Backed by Peak XV, Y Combinator and Sapphire.

About the role

Most AI-generated ads still look like AI-generated ads. Generic lighting, off-brand color, the same five compositions on a loop. Brands that care about their identity have stayed on the sidelines because the output hasn't met their bar.

What they're looking for

  • Enterprise client instincts: You've worked directly with sophisticated marketing teams, in-house, agency, or consultancy, and you know how to navigate brand reviews, legal, and the politics of getting work approved
  • Performance marketing literacy: You understand the difference between an ad that wins a Cannes Lion and an ad that wins a CAC target, and you can hold both standards at once
  • Taste: This is the hardest one to write a bullet for, so we'll just say it: you have it, your portfolio shows it, and you can articulate why something works
  • A Senior Art Director or Creative Lead at an agency who's frustrated with the pace, the layers of approval, and watching AI eat workflows you can't influence from where you sit
  • An in-house Creative Lead at a DTC or consumer brand who's been quietly building AI workflows nights and weekends, and is ready to do it as the job
  • A Creative Strategist at a Meta, Google, or TikTok partner shop who wants to be closer to the product and further from the deck
