How to reach us
Not Your Average Application Form
We’re not here to drown in résumés or skim the same templated cover letters.
This form? It’s your space to show us who you are, beyond job titles and bullet points. We're building a team that thrives on curiosity, collaboration, and a healthy dose of rebellion against the boring.
Whether you're a visual storyteller, a strategic thinker, a copy wizard, or someone who's tired of playing it safe — we want to hear from you. This is where your boldest ideas, proudest projects, and not-so-polished experiments come to life.
What We're Looking For
Use the form to tell us:
-
What drives you: Is it creative problem-solving? Beautiful design? Strategic chaos?
-
Where you shine: Show us your strengths, writing, photography, web, strategy, branding, we want it all.
-
What you want: Full-time, freelance, remote collab? Be honest.
-
Your work: Drop a portfolio link or attach your favorite pieces. We don’t need perfection — we need proof of passion.
No corporate jargon. No performative vibes.
This isn’t a test. We just want to know if we’re creatively compatible.
Because la mala idea* isn’t just a studio, it’s a shared state of mind.
Who we're looking for
The Creative Hustlers
You make things. Lots of them. And you’re not afraid to try weird ideas. We want people who: Shoot content on the fly, edit reels in their sleep, and live for a good visual hook Have an eye for design, even if you’re not a designer Write captions that don’t sound like captions Can juggle 3 clients, a Canva tab, and a cup of coffee, and still deliver on-brand magic
The Brand Thinkers
You’re obsessed with why things work (or don’t). We want people who: Get the nuance of voice, identity, and consistency across touchpoints Understand strategy before jumping into execution Love building brands from scratch (name, tone, moodboard, all of it) Can look at a brand deck and say, “That’s not it”, and explain why
The Digital Alchemists
You see patterns, dig into numbers, and turn data into direction. We want people who: Are curious about how audiences behave, click, bounce, or convert Know the backend of Meta Ads, Google Analytics, or at least want to learn Can audit a website, suggest SEO improvements, or set up GA4 like it’s no big deal Bring clarity to chaos and know how to explain technical things to non-tech clients
The Organized Dreamers
You’re creative, but you also love a good Airtable and a perfectly color-coded calendar. We want people who: Keep the engine running and the projects flowing Know how to turn a meeting into a plan and a plan into action Can manage timelines, deadlines, and tiny design tweaks without losing their cool Are natural communicators and know when to take the lead or step back
Careers at LA MALA IDEA*
We’re a studio building bold ideas, scroll-stopping content, and brands with attitude. If you love strategy as much as storytelling, and you’re not afraid to break a few “rules” to get there, you might just be one of us.
