Brand UI / Visual Designer (Startup Products)

About the Role

We’re looking for a Brand UI / Visual Designer who thrives in fast-paced startup environments and loves creating strong visual brands from scratch.

Our team already handles UX strategy and product flows. This role is visual- and graphic-first, focused on branding, aesthetic direction, and high-impact UI design for early-stage web and mobile products.

You’ll often be working with minimal existing branding and helping define the look, feel, and visual voice of new startup products — with quick turnaround timelines.

What You’ll Do

• Create brand identities and visual systems for early-stage startup apps
• Produce 3 distinct UI / brand style directions per product for fast review and selection
• Design high-fidelity UI screens (web or mobile) that reflect the chosen brand
• Execute quick iterations and rapid turnarounds based on feedback
• Focus on visual polish, clarity, and brand consistency
• Collaborate with UX designers and developers who handle flows, logic, and functionality

Important: This Is Not a UX Role

This position does not focus on

• UX research or user testing
• Wireframing or UX flow design
• Information architecture or usability strategy

Those areas are already covered by our team.

Requirements

• Strong background in visual design, brand design, or graphic design
• Experience creating brand identities for digital products
• Ability to develop multiple visual directions quickly
• Comfortable working with tight timelines and fast feedback cycles
• Portfolio showing brand-driven, high-fidelity UI work
• Proficiency in Figma (or similar tools)

Nice to Have

• Startup or agency experience
• SaaS, dashboard, or mobile app design experience
• Illustration, iconography, or motion design skills

Your portfolio should include

• Visually distinct brand directions
• High-fidelity UI screens
• Examples of startup or early-stage product branding

Portfolios focused mainly on UX flows or low-fidelity wireframes may not be a strong fit.
