About the Role

We’re looking for a Brand Designer with exceptional visual taste and broad creative range to shape Exa’s identity across campaigns, launches, website, events, and product marketing.

You’ll work closely with the founders, marketing, and product teams to take a project from early concepts to final launch. Alongside the day-to-day design work, we’re looking for designers who can bring a unique perspective and opinionated approach to each launch or event.

Designers at Exa have broad creative license, and the freedom to lead new initiatives to express our brand. This role will be a great fit for you if you enjoy moving across different kinds of work without compromising on craft.

What You’ll Do

  • Work with founders, marketing, product, and design from early concept through launch
  • Develop creative direction across Exa’s brand, campaigns, website, events, and product marketing
  • Turn strong visual concepts into cohesive systems that work across different channels
  • Move fluidly across graphic design, motion, illustration, 3D, and web to explore and execute ideas
  • Build reusable templates and brand tools that help teams move quickly without compromising on craft

Example Projects

  • Create the visual system for a major product launch, from the hero concept through its campaign rollout
  • Rethink Exa’s presence at a major industry event, from the environment and keynote through supporting materials
  • Build a flexible brand toolkit for launches, social, sales, and recurring marketing work

What We’re Looking for

  • 4+ years working in brand, visual, or multidisciplinary design
  • A portfolio of polished identities, campaigns, and digital experiences
  • Strong typography, composition, art direction, and visual storytelling skills
  • Fluency with Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, and skilled in a combination of graphic design, motion, illustration, 3D, creative coding, or web design
  • Ability to turn strong visual concepts into cohesive systems across different formats
  • High agency to identify opportunities, communicate clearly, and work well through ambiguity

Logistics

  • Location: This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco.
  • Visas: We're happy to sponsor international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3). While we cannot guarantee your visa, we have historically been successful in sponsoring candidates from all over the world. If you receive an offer, our team will work hard to get you a visa.
  • Benefits: We offer premium healthcare benefits (medical, dental, vision), fertility benefits, 16 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all new parents, and a monthly wellness stipend to all of our employees.
