The position

• As a Brand Designer at Gigs, you’ll have the opportunity to shape our brand identity and enhance customer engagement through your design expertise.
• Our brand visualization is still at an early stage. Your expertise, creativity and experience with design systems will help us build and extend our brand identity across all channels.
• You will be hands-on in creating static and animated content for our website, pitches, demos and product launches.
• You will build sample brands, demo videos and visuals/UI designs to demonstrate the business potential of Gigs during the sales funnel. You will also support the Business Development team with client-facing materials, presentation elements and infographics.
• You’ll also get regular opportunities to work with leading brands across the Phones and Wearables, Fintech, E-Commerce and Broadband verticals, creating unique branded launch assets for their mobile services with Gigs.
• You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including marketing, product development, and sales, to create visually stunning brand assets that leave a lasting impression on our audience.

Requirements

We know that perfect candidates don’t exist. Even if not all of this applies to you, we’d love to learn more about you.

• You’ve worked closely with tech products before, and feel comfortable incorporating UI in your designs.
• You’re a confident, experienced and creative graphic designer. You might also have strengths in 3D and motion design, which is a valuable bonus.
• You’ve designed for consumer-facing products. We’re changing the world of telecom and design will play a crucial role here. Our idea of great design is questioning as many assumptions as possible. And also answering them.
• You love a good design system. You understand that it enables creativity rather than limits it.
• You enjoy engaging the team. This means high involvement of all team members in the design process.
• You love learning technologies as you go. You always want to find the right tool for the job and don’t only follow what you already know.
• You care about more than design quality. Whatever you do, needs to have a business impact. You can make trade-offs between speed and quality.

Benefits

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• 28 paid vacation days per year (PTO). 21 days if based in the US.
• Generous stock options: We want everybody to be a true owner in Gigs (tax-free until exercised).
• Free phone plan
• Flexible working hours: Early riser? Night owl? Need to pick up your kids and finish up later? You can discuss and organize with your team to work out what’s best for you.
• Get your perfect setup: Mac, Mechanical Keyboard, Plugins, IDE. We are flexible and cover whatever you need to do the best work of your life.
• A workplace built for remote-first work: We are building Gigs as a remote-friendly company, but we also believe in the magic of face-to-face interaction. That means we’re building ways to get you out of your home office from time to time:
  • Gigs Pads: Our collection of beautiful homes around the world, for when you need a work-cation getaway.
  • Gigs Republic: Our semi-annual sunny offsite, a time for us to all come together. Meet fellow Gigsters from around the world to spend quality in-person time with your team.
