Senior Designer, Performance

Expedia Group brands power global travel for everyone, everywhere. We design cutting-edge tech to make travel smoother and more memorable, and we create groundbreaking solutions for our partners. Our diverse, vibrant, and welcoming community is essential in driving our success.
Expedia Group's Creative Lab is seeking a digitally fluent, design-obsessed Senior Designer with a performance mindset to join our Digital Creative team. As a Senior Designer, Performance, you'll help shape and deliver scaled, always-on content across a variety of digital touchpoints—from programmatic display to paid social and app store assets.
You'll be part of a high-velocity team supporting Growth, collaborating with social creatives, creative managers, and external agencies to translate briefs into compelling executions that align with our brands and drive results.
In this role, you will:
Translate business needs into thumb-stopping, channel-native design across programmatic display, paid and organic social, paid app, and app store optimization
Balance quality, scale, brand, and performance in all creative output
Collaborate with internal teams and external agency partners—including brand design experts, creative strategists, producers, and campaign managers—to influence creative outcomes
Conceive, optimize, and design digital assets using data, insights, and brand strategy
Build tech-enabled systems and workflows to support volume, optimization, and fast-turn content production
Maintain consistency with creative guidelines while evolving them through digital design best practices
Contribute to a new agile creative model focused on test-and-learn, flexibility, responsiveness, and collaboration
Develop proof-of-concept creative and scalable design systems that can be handed off to agency partners for production
Experience and Qualifications:
6–8+ years of digital design experience (vs strictly performance marketing focus), preferably in-house
Strong portfolio demonstrating digital-first, channel-native work (not limited to lower-funnel performance)
Expertise in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite; working knowledge of animation/motion tools (After Effects a plus), Google Web Designer, Animate, and coding (HTML5/CSS/JS)
Understanding of platform best practices across channels (Meta, TikTok, YouTube, display), even if not exclusively performance-focused
Ability to work fluidly in fast-paced, high-volume production environments
Strong communication skills and collaborative spirit
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted creative tools (e.g., generative design, automation, or AI-driven content creation) is required
Digital-first design experience with strong craft and attention to detail
Comfortable working across both concept and execution, from idea to scaled production
Curiosity and openness to using data and signals to inform creative decisions (even if not deeply performance-driven yet)
This person needs to be comfortable pushing back and advocating for strong creative solutions
Ability to execute initial concepts and partner with agencies to scale production
The total cash range for this position in West Hollywood is $110,500.00 to $155,000.00. Employees in this role have the potential to increase their pay up to $177,000.00, which is the top of the range, based on ongoing, demonstrated, and sustained performance in the role.
Starting pay for this role will vary based on multiple factors, including location, available budget, and an individual's knowledge, skills, and experience. Pay ranges may be modified in the future.
