From static assets to motion graphics, from event branding to product storytelling, you’ll be the creative engine behind our marketing. This means producing high-quality designs at speed and at scale, across multiple formats and channels.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, cross-border SaaS environment, works seamlessly across time zones, and blends creative craft with sharp execution. You’ll collaborate closely with Product, Sales, and Marketing teams to make our story visually compelling, consistent, and impactful for US and global audiences.

Responsibilities:

• Design & Motion: Create stunning visual content including graphics, motion videos, explainer animations, product visuals, landing pages, ebooks, pitch decks, social ads, and more. Be a one-person studio who can bring ideas to life.
• Website Design: Work closely with the marketing team to design, refresh, and optimize web pages (landing pages, feature pages, comparison pages) for clarity, impact, and conversion.
• Brand Guardian: Ensure all designs are consistent with our brand guidelines while evolving the look and feel to keep things fresh, modern, and memorable.
• Marketing Support: Collaborate with the marketing team to amplify campaigns across social media, web, newsletters, podcasts, events, and sales enablement materials.
• Content Factory: Design for scale, with multiple social posts per week, newsletters, video edits, case study layouts, event branding, and more.

• Proficiency in Figma, Illustrator, Photoshop, and other relevant tools.
• Comfort with multiple design and AI tools, with speed as a top priority.
• A strong portfolio that showcases motion graphics, digital design, and brand identity work.
• Extreme proactiveness. We won’t micromanage you - you need to be a self-starter who takes ownership and gets things done without waiting to be asked.

• Excellent communication skills in English (written and spoken) with a willingness to over-communicate progress and updates.
• Ability to work 3 pm-midnight (IST) in office to overlap with our San Francisco office and customers/partners.
