Visual Designer
Speechify
Speechify is the easiest way to listen to the world’s information. Articles on the web, documents in the cloud, books on your phone—we absorb the world’s content and help our members listen to it on the go, at their own speed, with tools that make learning easier, deeper, and faster.
Or, put another way: what Spotify has done for audio entertainment we’re doing for audio information. And whatever we’re doing seems to be working: we’re #1 in our category, profitable, and have hockey-stick growth.
With that growth comes the need for a visual designer to help us build out our new design language (which you may or may not have seen yet depending on when this runs) across marketing and product surfaces. Landing pages, funnels, explainer GIFs, social, splash screens—a big canvas on which to paint our vision of the world.
This is a high-impact role and ideal for a crafty, inventive mind who works quickly and iteratively and enjoys diverse projects.
Some of the things you’ll do:
- Create or refine static and motion assets for app stores, ads, social, apps, funnels, and landing pages
- Pitch creative (visuals, copy, themes, etc) for campaigns and bring them to life with built, found, or commissioned assets
- Contribute to the overall visual storytelling of the company and help establish a consistent baseline of quality and clarity
- Help others understand the business value of smart design that telegraphs our benefits and reinforces our brand
- Influence our process and help shape the design and growth teams
To succeed here, you’ll need:
- Experience. You’ve created visual languages for other start-ups
- Craft. You excel at translating strategy to accessible themes and metaphors and know how to unpack customer features, benefits, and outcomes
- Systems thinking. You know how to connect the design or assets for one campaign to another and can establish a framework that scales
- Moxy. You’re curious, expressive, and know how to engage those around you to draw out insights and ideas to boost your product opinions.
- Speed. You work quickly to generate ideas and options and know how to decide which things can ship now and what things need time.
- Focus. We’re a high-growth startup with a busy, remote team. You know how and when to engage or be heads down.
- Collaboration. You know how to inspire, play, and negotiate with opinionated product designers, engineers, and PMs.
We offer:
- A fast-growing environment where you can help shape the culture
- An entrepreneurial crew that supports risk, intuition, and hustle
- A hands-off approach so you can focus and do your best work
- The opportunity to make an impact in a transformative industry
- A competitive salary, a collegiate atmosphere, and a commitment to building a great asynchronous culture
