- Basic working knowledge of Figma, including using AI within it (and beyond) to generate and apply visuals to support content
- Strong understanding of digital marketing channels, tools, processes, and the latest content trends
- Hands-on experience with Generative AI tools for content creation, research, and workflows โ including building AI-powered workflows and prompts that your team can use, not only for your own work
