About the Role
This role owns brand, product, and deliverables, sitting at the center of the company with the CEO. You will decide what should exist, design how it works, and either build it or direct engineering. This is a design role requiring expertise in identity systems, typography, and dense, information-heavy interfaces for professionals under time pressure.
Responsibilities
- Update Build's positioning across the brand to match company expansion into new asset classes and services.
- Evolve the brand through creative direction and visual artifacts like campaigns, film, motion, print, and environment.
- Refine the brand voice and design trust into Build at every layer, from brand to product.
- Establish and maintain the highest level of taste and identity across every touchpoint.
- Design the client-facing product builder platform, the assistant, and the workflow for commissioning and delivering work.
- Design the deliverables and models that clients act on.
- Design the internal tools used by domain experts, recognizing that throughput is capacity and interface is the constraint.
- Build a unified design system that spans brand, product, and deliverables, ensuring consistency.
- Explore and invent new forms of artifacts within the category.
- Direct contractors and internal teams in motion graphics and other creative work, raising the standard for all involved.
- Work end-to-end, including prototyping and collaborating with engineering.
Requirements
- Genuine range across brand and product design, with expertise in both identity systems and working interfaces.
- Proficiency in design and engineering, capable of shipping fast and writing a pull request.
- Strong information and editorial design ability for high-consequence outputs.
- Proficiency in typography and restraint.
- Strong spatial and systems thinking.
- Experience designing for high-stakes decisions where users are accountable for acting on presented information.
- Ability to argue for and implement strong opinions, bringing engineers and domain experts along.
- Comfort with ambiguity in a role that is still defining its playbook.
- Understanding that design compounds distribution and a desire for scale.
