Creative Technologist

MONO is an advertising and branding agency formed to create magnetic brands that draw people in. We aim to create legendary work that works for our clients, within a working environment that is optimistic, collaborative, and team-based—because the best ideas come from people who love making them together.

MONO is seeking a Creative Technologist with 3+ years of experience to join our innovation team.

With a solid foundation in development and a passion for storytelling, you'll prototype experiential activations, experiment with generative AI tools, and help our creative teams push the boundaries of what's possible by turning "What if we tried...?"

into a working reality that wins pitches and creates memorable brand experiences. This is a hybrid creative role that requires equal time spent concepting solutions and building them.

  Assess early-stage creative concepts for technical feasibility, scope, and platform requirements, and connect creative frontends with third-party APIs, data streams, and generative AI models to build dynamic, reactive experiences
