About the role
This role is for a creative leader who is still close to the craft and ready to build how a brand design team operates: how concepts get made, how the brand is stewarded and enabled across the company, and how AI is applied to build and accelerate design systems and creative work. We’re not looking for someone to run creative as usual. You will raise the bar, push our brand toward more distinctive and recognizable work, and build a creative engine that moves faster and scales further. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

- BFA or MA/MS in design, art and design, or a related field, or equivalent work experience

- Experience building and operationalizing brand and design systems, ideally for B2B, technology, or SaaS brands
- Experience directing environmental and event design for large-scale brand moments
- Advanced knowledge of Adobe and Figma systems, libraries, and scalable brand documentation
