Senior Brand Designer

Responsibilities

• Market the Products
• Produce OV-1s, concept-of-operations graphics, and system diagrams that show where Navigator, Phalanx, and Burrow fit in a mission. They must be accurate enough for military SMEs and clear enough for a general officer.
• Create product marketing collateral: one-pagers, solution briefs, launch assets, and proposal graphics.
• Keep product marketing tightly aligned with the corporate brand, so each product stands on its own and is still clearly Gallatin.
• Maintain and extend Gallatin's brand guidelines across web, proposals, events, and physical goods.
• Deliver assets for high-stakes moments, such as funding announcements, major conferences, and customer briefings, working directly with the leadership team.
• Design social content for contract wins, product milestones, hiring, and company news.
• Produce conference booths, signage, swag, and merchandise, from concept through vendor QA and production-ready files.
• Build org-wide presentation templates, type and color systems, and a library of imagery, icons, and diagram components any team can use on its own.
• Produce internal brand and content: all-hands materials, recruiting assets, and company announcements.

Requirements

• U.S. citizenship (required for work on defense programs)
• 6+ years of brand or visual design experience, in-house or agency, including work you owned from brief through production
• A portfolio that shows identity systems and templates other people used successfully, not just finished pieces
• Strong visual and typographic craft, and the ability to explain your decisions to non-designers, in writing and in the room
• A track record of owning ambiguous, multi-stakeholder work with minimal direction
• Experience turning technical or complex information into clear diagrams and explanatory graphics
• Fluency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, and PowerPoint or Google Slides
• Production knowledge: print and large-format specs, color management, and files that printers and manufacturers don't have to fix
• Judgment about which pieces deserve extra time and which need to be good and done, across a pipeline of mixed urgency
• Willingness to travel occasionally for conferences, events, and customer meetings

Preferred

• Experience producing operational graphics for DoD or other government audiences
• Background in defense, aerospace, or government technology
• Hands-on experience with AI-assisted design and production workflows
• Illustration or 3D rendering of platforms, equipment, and environments in a consistent style
• Motion design, or the ability to direct short-form video
• Experience as a first or early design hire, with a clear view of what you'd do differently next time
• Degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, or a related field

Benefits

• Gallatin offers generous equity grant, full healthcare coverage, 401(k), unlimited PTO, and the perks of working in a high-caliber, mission-driven environment.
