About the Role

Convex is seeking a creative leader to own the brand identity and visual presence for the company. This role involves defining the look and feel of Convex across brand, product design, marketing, events, and the website, ensuring it resonates with a developer audience. The position is hands-on, requiring the individual to execute creative work directly while also developing a strategic vision and prioritizing effectively.

Responsibilities

Set the creative strategy for how Convex shows up across brand and product, and make the calls on what to prioritize.
Own the Convex brand and identity across every touch point.
Do the work yourself now (alongside our existing team of creative freelancers), and build a small, world-class creative team later.
Set and hold the bar for taste across everything.
Keep us honest: kill the marketing BS before it ships, including ours.
Make a bunch of cool stuff.

Requirements

A portfolio with range: brand systems and product design, not just one or the other.
Taste calibrated for a technical, skeptical audience and a track record to prove it.
The ability to set direction and also open the file and do the work.
The judgment to prioritize across a broad surface area and hold a creative vision while doing it.
Experience building or leading a small creative team.
Interest in working in-person at Convex's office in SF.
A track record of shipping genuinely excellent things, and a strong point of view on why they're good.
Ability to form a clear opinion about what the brand should stand for visually, how it should evolve, and what it should never be.
Ability to go from a brand direction conversation with a founder to opening Figma and making it real themselves.
Understanding of what it feels like to be a skeptical developer deciding whether to trust a tool.
Bias toward doing fewer things and doing them really well.
Ability to make a hard idea feel obvious and a complex surface feel intentional.
Constructive, positive, and excited about making things better.
