ABOUT NAILZOTICA

Nailzotica is a beauty-tech platform where users can create customized nail designs using digital tools, patterns, charms, and decorative effects.

We are looking for a creative, detail-oriented digital artist to recreate real-world nail art designs inside our mobile application and help organize a high-quality dataset for future AI-powered features.

This role involves using our existing nail design builder, not developing or programming the application.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Recreate nail art designs from provided reference photographs using the Nailzotica app.
• Accurately reproduce colors, patterns, French tips, charms, and decorative details.
• Create designs ranging from simple manicures to elaborate multi-layered nail art.
• Use existing app tools and digital assets to reproduce designs as accurately as possible.
• Prepare and edit transparent PNG or WebP charm images when needed.
• Organize completed designs and maintain accurate production records.
• Categorize designs by nail shape, color, technique, complexity, and other characteristics.
• Follow quality-control guidelines and make revisions when needed.
• Help identify missing digital assets or design elements that would improve the app's creative capabilities.

REQUIREMENTS

• Strong attention to visual detail and design accuracy.
• Familiarity with nail art styles, trends, and techniques.
• Experience with digital illustration, Photoshop, Procreate, Canva, or similar creative tools.
• Ability to learn new applications quickly.
• Reliable internet connection.
• Access to a compatible iPhone or iPad for testing and using our application.
• Strong organizational skills and reliable communication.

Previous experience as a nail technician, nail artist, or digital beauty designer is a plus but not required.

APP ACCESS

Selected contractors will receive access to Nailzotica through a private testing invitation.

You do not need to be located in a country where our app is publicly available.

Training and instructions will be provided for using our nail design builder and organizing completed designs.

INITIAL PROJECT

Our long-term objective is to recreate approximately 1,000 high-quality nail designs across multiple categories.

These will include:

• Solid colors, French tips, and ombré designs
• Patterns, stamping, and detailed nail art
• Charm-based nail designs
• Sculpted gel art and dimensional decorations
• Mixed-technique and elaborate nail sets

We will begin with a smaller paid trial batch to evaluate design accuracy, production speed, and consistency.

Completed designs will contribute to the development and evaluation of future AI-powered visualization features.

COMPENSATION AND CONTRACT TERMS

• Proposed rate: $5–7 USD/hour, depending on experience and demonstrated ability.
• Freelance, project-based engagement.
• Work will be assigned in batches according to project needs and available budget.
• No fixed weekly hours, minimum workload, or long-term contract are guaranteed.
• Additional assignments may be offered as our platform grows.
• Strong performers may have opportunities to transition into ongoing digital asset production, quality control, or asset management roles.
• Contractors must provide original work and agree to transfer the necessary commercial usage and ownership rights to Nailzotica upon payment.

HOW TO APPLY

Please include the following:

1. Examples of your digital illustration, or other relevant creative work.
2. Your desired hourly rate.
3. Your weekly availability.
4. Whether you own an iPhone or iPad, including the device model.
5. Your experience with Photoshop, Procreate, Canva, or similar software.
6. Any experience recreating designs from reference images.

Start your application with the phrase "Digital Nail Studio" so we know you read the posting.

Shortlisted candidates may be invited to complete a paid design recreation test before receiving a larger batch of work.
