Careers at Rukxi
We're building Asia's most accountable marketing team, one transparent retainer at a time. If you want to work on real businesses with real outcomes, this is the place.
Designer
The situation
Every ad creative, every carousel, every landing page and every client deck at Rukxi currently comes through one person, usually at 11pm. The campaigns are landing. Design is the bottleneck.
So we're hiring a designer to own it outright.
The honest version
This is client service work, on deadlines, with real feedback loops. Some briefs will be thin because a founder wrote them between calls. You'd be building the design process while doing the work.
The upside: you'd own design here completely. No layers above you, no committee. Your work goes live and gets measured in days, not quarters.
Where you'd be based
Remote, within Sri Lanka, working Sri Lanka hours with overlap into Singapore. Pay is benchmarked to the Sri Lankan market and paid in LKR.
What you'd actually make
- Ad creatives for Meta and Google, built to be tested and iterated, not admired.
- Social sets that hold a client's brand across a full month of daily posts.
- Landing pages designed to convert, built with our web workflow.
- Client decks and brand kits, the things clients see first and judge us on.
How to apply
- Three pieces of work. For each, tell us the brief, and what you'd change about it now.
- Your CV.
- Your expected monthly rate in LKR.
We read portfolios first and CVs second. We reply to everyone who sends work.
- Real work for real SMEs. Your work directly impacts business owners trying to grow, not faceless brands hidden behind 5 layers of approval.
- Full-stack thinking. We don't silo design, ads, and content. Every team member touches strategy across the funnel.
- Multi-market exposure. Work across Singapore, Sri Lanka, and the US, the way modern marketing actually works.
- Compounding career. Each project builds on the last. We're not an agency hamster wheel. We play the long game with each client and with our team.
- Remote-first. No office politics. Roles are benchmarked to the market you're based in, and we tell you the range before you interview.
We hire for slope.
Not intercept.
Resumes show where you've been. We care about how fast you can get to where you're going. The four traits below are what we actually filter for. Every other skill we can teach.
Strong fundamentals.
Specific tools come and go. Meta Ads Manager will look different next year. What stays is critical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to learn fast. We hire the operating system, not the apps.
Comfortable with change.
Roles flex here. Today's media buyer might lead next month's CRO sprint. A client's industry changes, and you change with it. Comfort with ambiguity is the job, not a perk.
Compounds effort.
Marketing rewards reps. Hundreds of small experiments that nobody else has the patience to run. We hire people who put in the reps when nobody's watching, because they care about the outcome, not the optics.
Thinks like an owner.
Spot what's broken. Propose the fix. Ship it. Permission-asking is optional, ownership is mandatory. If you've ever side-projected, founded, or hustled, you'll feel at home.
If a client gets sick at 9pm before a campaign launch, do you wait for instructions, or do you make a judgment call and own the outcome? That's the filter. Everything else is craft we can build.
Designer is the one role open right now. Details are above. Beyond that, we hire generalists with depth. People who can write a great email and debug a tracking pixel. We're typically open to:
- Performance marketers (Meta, Google, LinkedIn Ads)
- Content strategists, copywriters, and editors
- Front-end developers (websites, landing pages, CRO)
- Account managers and client strategists
- Marketing engineers (CRM, automation, analytics)
- Video editors, podcast producers, and social media creators
For the designer role, send your portfolio and CV to the address below, with "Designer application" and your name in the subject line.
For everything else, we hire in waves. Even if there's no open role today, send us your work and we'll keep you in the loop when something opens that matches your skills.
Please include:
- A short note about you: where you are, what you've done, and what you want to do next.
- Links to past work or portfolio (any format is fine).
- The type of role you're interested in.
- Why Rukxi specifically, and what about the way we work resonates with you.
Remote-first, market-benchmarked. We have team members in Singapore, Colombo, and across the US. Each role is based in a specific market and paid to that market's rate. The current designer opening is a Sri Lanka-based role.
We are an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, or national origin. We hire the best people for the work. Nothing else.
