Job Description

At MNTN, we put our people first, full stop. This allows our company culture to be defined by our team members and their shared values, like trust, ambition, quality, radical honesty, and compassionate leadership. It's why we all really love working for the Hardest Working Software in Television™ (and also why we were named one of Ad Age's Best Places To Work in 2024.)

We pride ourselves on bringing unrivaled performance and simplicity to Connected TV advertising. Our self-serve technology makes running TV ads as easy as search and social, helping brands drive measurable conversions, revenue, site visits, and more. It's what led MNTN to being named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies in 2023. You can learn more about us and everything we do by visiting

We're committed to innovation that empowers, not replaces. At MNTN, AI is a tool for growth, enhancing efficiency while keeping a people-first approach. Our goal is to streamline workflows and drive new solutions—without compromising the human element that makes our company great.

So if wanting to do more, own more, and make a bigger impact comes naturally to you, then you may be the person we're looking for to join us in our next stage of growth.

As Creative Director at MNTN, you'll define and elevate how one of the most visible brands in ad tech shows up in the world. You'll be responsible for shaping the creative vision across every channel: design, campaigns, social, and experiences, ensuring that our work not only looks exceptional but drives performance.You'll collaborate closely with leaders in product marketing, content, and sales to ensure our creative is cohesive, strategic, and unmistakably MNTN. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can both set the vision and speak the language of design ; someone as comfortable in Figma as they are in a boardroom.

What you'll do

  • Lead the creative direction for MNTN's brand and product marketing initiatives, ensuring everything we produce is cohesive, distinctive, and on-brand.
  • Partner with marketing leadership to develop integrated campaigns that bring our product narrative to life across web, social, email, and events.
  • Guide and mentor a talented team of designers, helping them grow while maintaining an uncompromising bar for quality.
  • Work cross-functionally with product, content, and social teams to ensure visual identity and storytelling are consistent across all extensions of the brand.
  • Translate complex, technical concepts into clear, compelling creative that resonates with marketers.
  • Bring a strong creative point of view to design reviews – able to discuss not just the what , but the why behind every design choice.
  • Maintain and evolve the MNTN brand system to stay modern, premium, and performance-focused.
  • Balance vision with execution: knowing when to push creative boundaries and when to optimize for impact.

What you'll bring

  • 10+ years of creative leadership experience, ideally including time leading design or brand teams at a high-growth or public company.
  • A track record of shaping a well-known brand and guiding it through moments of scale, transformation, or heightened visibility.
  • Deep experience managing and mentoring designers and creative teams.
  • Hands-on fluency in digital design tools (especially Figma) and an ability to "speak designer" while leading at a strategic level.
  • A portfolio that shows taste, clarity, and the ability to make complex ideas feel simple and human.
  • Experience partnering closely with social, content, and performance marketing teams to extend brand storytelling across channels.
  • A strong understanding of how creative drives results, not just attention.
  • A love of technology, advertising, and building work that performs as beautifully as it looks.

MNTN Perks:

  • 100% remote within the US
  • Flexible vacation policy
  • Annual vacation allowance for travel related expenses
  • Three-day weekend every month of the year
  • Competitive compensation
  • 100% healthcare coverage
  • 401k plan
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for dependent, medical, and dental care
  • Access to coaching, therapy, and professional development

About MNTN:

Our recruiters will always reach out using an email address ending with @mountain.com OR @mntn.com. If you're contacted by someone without that address and they mention a Reference Code (which we never use), then that ain't us folks. Tell those trolls to take a hike–you're waiting to climb a MNTN.

MNTN provides advertising software for brands to reach their audience across Connected TV, web, and mobile. MNTN Performance TV has redefined what it means to advertise on television, transforming Connected TV into a direct-response, performance marketing channel. Our web retargeting has been leveraged by thousands of top brands for over a decade, driving billions of dollars in revenue.

Our solutions give advertisers total transparency and complete control over their campaigns all with the fastest go-live in the industry. As a result, thousands of top brands have partnered with MNTN, including Tarte, Decked, and National University.
