Senior Brand Designer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Serbia.

📋 Description

• We are seeking a Senior Brand Designer to enhance Solflare's presence across various platforms, including campaigns, social media, presentations, events, merchandise, and other digital and physical experiences.

• This role is a senior, hands-on position for an individual who can transform a brief into a compelling creative concept and a scalable visual system, executing it to a high standard.

• You will take ownership of briefs from inception to delivery, executing the majority of the work independently.

• Additionally, you will brief and manage freelancers or specialist partners when projects necessitate extra capacity or expertise.

• Reporting to the Head of Design, you will collaborate closely within the Brand & Creative team, working alongside Marketing, Product Marketing, Product Design, and Operations.

• You will present your work, actively solicit feedback, and provide a clear perspective to the broader team's efforts.

• Your role will involve intelligently expanding the brand's identity, creating new expressions and systems while maintaining the brand's recognizability.

• Over time, this position may evolve into greater art direction responsibilities while keeping a strong connection to the craft.

⛳️ Requirements

• A minimum of five years of experience in brand, visual, or graphic design, supported by a portfolio that showcases both depth and variety.

• Exceptional skills in typography, composition, hierarchy, and visual storytelling.

• Experience working within an established identity system and significantly extending it beyond merely applying existing templates.

• Proficiency in implementing brand systems across various formats, including campaigns, digital content, presentations, print, merchandise, or events.

• The capability to take full ownership from brief to delivery, constructively challenging vague or weak briefs, and making thoughtful creative decisions.

• A collaborative attitude with low ego, along with the ability to give and receive direct feedback.

• Thoughtful utilization of generative AI and modern creative tools, with sound judgment on when they enhance efficiency and when hands-on craft is more crucial.

• Professional proficiency in both written and spoken English.

• A portfolio is mandatory. Applications lacking a portfolio cannot be considered. Please provide links rather than attachments and include three to five projects that demonstrate: exceptional brand and visual design skills, experience in developing a concept into a cohesive campaign or visual system, an identity system you have meaningfully extended beyond its original guidelines, diversity across relevant digital and physical formats, your specific role, the constraints you navigated, and the rationale behind your key decisions. Motion work is encouraged. A small number of well-articulated projects is more valuable than an extensive collection of unrelated visuals.
