Are you a creative visionary with a passion for storytelling through visuals? Idea Soup, a thriving YouTube channel with over 53,000 subscribers, seeks a talented Thumbnail Designer to elevate our history and science storytelling content. Your mission will be to design eye-catching thumbnails that entice viewers and boost our click-through rates.

We are looking for an individual who not only has a proven ability to enhance video impressions but also possesses an intuitive storytelling flair. You should know how to weave together facial expressions, emotions, and text to create an immediate and compelling narrative connection. Your style should be engaging and contemporary, yet avoid the pitfalls of being overly flashy.

Our ideal candidate is familiar with the educational or science/history niche, drawing inspiration from prominent creators like Johnny Harris, Veritasium, and Vsauce. A strong grasp of YouTube analytics and tools such as TubeBuddy and vidIQ will be crucial in evaluating and improving our content's performance.

To thrive in this role, you should have at least three years of experience in thumbnail design, or one year with substantial documented successes. Proficiency in Photoshop or similar design software is essential, along with excellent English communication skills. We value professionals who are responsive, open to constructive feedback, and capable of rapid iteration to refine their designs.
