Design Director

• Develop and evolve the company's visual identity across brand, marketing, product, communications, and content.
• Translate brand strategy into visuals, campaigns, narratives, and customer experiences that resonate.
• Create high-quality visual assets including launch materials, presentations, campaigns, social content, web pages, and brand collateral.
• Build design concepts that make complex technology clear, accessible, and culturally relevant.
• Shape visual storytelling for key company moments and establish design principles that enable scalable, consistent branding.
• Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Product, and Leadership to support business goals and maintain brand consistency.
• Influence overall company perception through strong creative taste and strategic judgment.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Must-haves:

• 8+ years of design experience specializing in brand identity, visual systems, campaigns, and creative direction.
• Demonstrated ability to translate brand strategy into visual systems, campaigns, narratives, and customer experiences.
• Proficiency creating high-quality assets across launch materials, presentations, social, web, and brand content.
• Experience developing and evolving visual identity systems across multiple channels (brand, marketing, product, communications).
• Ability to establish design principles and visual storytelling frameworks that scale across an organization.
• Strong cross-functional collaboration skills with Marketing, Product, and Leadership stakeholders.
• Deep understanding of brand as a strategic business function and how it shapes market perception and product experience.
• A portfolio demonstrating strategic thinking combined with hands-on execution of brand systems and design concepts.
• Proven comfort working in fast-paced startup environments with high design standards.

Nice to have:

• Prior experience with luxury, DTC (direct-to-consumer), wellness, or technology brands.
• Experience designing concepts that make complex or emerging technology feel intuitive and culturally relevant.
