AI Summary

The Design Director will develop and evolve the company's visual identity across all brand, marketing, and product channels. They will translate brand strategy into compelling visual systems and narratives while partnering with leadership to drive business outcomes.

About the Role

An early-stage ambient AI and personal productivity startup is looking for a Design Director to shape how the company is seen and experienced across every touchpoint. This is a hands-on creative and strategic role — you'll translate brand strategy into compelling visual systems, campaigns, and narratives that influence company perception and drive real business outcomes. There is meaningful potential for leadership growth as the company scales.

We're building technology that integrates intelligence seamlessly into daily life — and we need a designer with exceptional taste and strategic judgment to make that technology feel clear, accessible, and culturally resonant. If you've done your best work at the intersection of brand vision and meticulous craft, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and evolve the company's visual identity across brand, marketing, product, communications, and content channels.

  • Translate brand strategy into visuals, campaigns, narratives, and customer experiences that genuinely 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 feel clear, accessible, and culturally relevant.

  • Shape visual storytelling for key moments — product launches, campaigns, partnerships — and establish design principles that enable scalable, consistent branding.

  • Partner closely with Marketing, Product, and Leadership to support business goals and maintain a cohesive brand voice.

  • Influence company perception with strong taste and strategic judgment across every audience-facing touchpoint.

What We're Looking For

Required

  • 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.

  • Ability to establish design principles and visual storytelling frameworks that scale across an organization.

  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills — comfortable working alongside Marketing, Product, and Leadership.

  • Deep understanding of how brand strategy shapes market perception and product experience.

  • A portfolio that demonstrates both strategic thinking and hands-on execution excellence.

  • Experience thriving in fast-paced, high-standards startup environments.

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with luxury, DTC (direct-to-consumer), wellness, or technology brands.

  • Experience building design concepts that make complex or emerging technology feel accessible and culturally meaningful.

Please note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
