Responsibilities

• The design system
• - Extend the 8090 design system (color, type, spacing, iconography, motifs) into a complete, documented set the rest of the team can apply without guessing.
• - Close the known gaps: a proper neutral color ramp, correct tracking at display sizes, a ratified icon set, and consistent rules for how the painterly brand imagery gets used across surfaces.
• - Enforce the system across every surface, including the ones someone else builds from your templates. A deck, a post, and a landing page should read as the same brand.
• GTM templates
• - Build and maintain the reusable templates the team runs on every week: pitch and sales decks, one-pagers, customer story sheets, internal and external documents, event invitations, and event collateral.
• - Design these as templates, not one-off files: structured, on-system, and fast for a non-designer to fill in correctly.
• - Keep a tidy, organized library so the team can find the current version of a deck template or logo file without asking around.
• Content review
• - Review still assets before they ship, decks, docs, invitations, social graphics, and catch what's off-brand, off-system, or not good enough before it goes out.

Requirements

• Three or more years as a graphic designer, ideally with ownership of a brand or design system, beyond individual assets.
• Strong craft fundamentals: typography, spacing, color, and hierarchy. You can explain why a layout works, not only produce one that does.
• Fluent in Figma, comfortable building and maintaining a token-based design system rather than a folder of loose files.
• Experience building templates other people use, decks, one-pagers, or similar, that hold up when someone other than you fills them in.
• Curious about AI tools and open to helping translate your own design judgment into a reusable skill or prompt, even if you haven't done this before.
• A sharp eye for review: you can look at a finished asset and say exactly what's wrong with it and why.

Preferred

• Experience with an industrial, editorial, or quality-and-craft brand aesthetic
• Motion or basic animation skills for style frames and social cuts.
• Familiarity with Claude, ChatGPT, or similar tools in a design or content workflow.
• A background that includes both agency-style production speed and in-house brand ownership.
