Descripción

Lingokids' mission is to break down language barriers and provide equal opportunities for kids all around the world, while we aim to help parents and caregivers to follow up on the progress and achievements of their children.

To help deliver our educational content to millions of families, we're looking for an Art Director.

Our offices are in Madrid, Spain, but the position is open to anyone with experience working remotely.

Some overlap with Central European Time is expected, though, for those times when a video call is the most efficient way to communicate.

Our goal:

We're reinventing early childhood education through an online language learning service for kids.

With fresh content - games, books, videos, interactive episodes, etc - every week, we are helping more than 60M families and their children around the world to develop their skills in a fun and effective way.

Our dream is to have a positive impact on 100M families, and we're working hard to make it a reality.

Our talented team of product designers, software engineers, and content producers tweak and improve our product daily while incorporating feedback from our customers.
