Senior Performance & Marketing Designer

What You'll Actually Do

• Ads. 80-90% of your time will be spent creating high-volume ad creative, mostly static, against real budget, working with Preston (Creative Strategist). Create, ship, learn, and iterate quickly.

• Brand execution. Adapt and extend the visual system: storyboards, art-direction, illustration. Work inside the brand book, then make the system better as you use it.

• Campaigns & social. Daily briefs, quick turnarounds. Statics, simple animations, short video, blog/editorial.

• Decks & templates. Equip sales, success, and the founders with decks that close and templates the team can use without breaking the brand.

• Events. Booths, signage, swag, screens. Digital, print, spatial, on-site. They need to look like Viktor from 30 feet away.

• Product visuals. Redraw product screens for marketing: heroes, comparison shots, walkthroughs. No UI work itself.

Why This Role Is Different

• Embedded with Growth on the ads and performance creative that move the business, with additional ownership across content and events. Founding Designer (Bartek Pierzchała) partners on strategic projects: brand system, identity extensions, the work that sets the bar.

• Real ownership. You're not the third designer on a 20-person team; you're the designer for everything the world sees outside the product.

• Speed. Marketing ships every day. Your work goes live in hours, not quarters.

• Fresh brand, real budget. You roll the new brand out across every surface and own it as it grows.

Who You Are

• 5+ years of experience in visual design across agencies, studios, or in-house teams. Portfolio shows strong creative craft and range across performance ads, social, motion, campaigns, and other marketing creative.

• You designed static work by hand for several years before AI image generation (pre-2022). Your portfolio shows that craft: composition, typography, image-making, and a reason behind every choice.

• You're excited by high-velocity creative production and comfortable producing a high volume of ads rather than spending weeks perfecting a single asset.

• You can work inside an established brand system without fighting it, and you know when to stretch it.

• Strong illustration and art-direction instincts. You turn "we need a hero for tomorrow by EOD" into something that ships.

• You use AI in your design workflow, or actively keep up with it: ideation, generation, automation. You can show what you tried and what you learned.

• Hands-on fluency in Figma and Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects or equivalent). Comfortable with motion and short video.

• Bias toward shipping. You finish, measure, iterate.

• Self-managed. Sharp written communication. You give and take feedback without ego.

• UI/UX experience is a plus, not a requirement.

Even Better If

• You're familiar with Claude Code or Cursor, and excited about vibe-coding.

• You've shipped your own product in the past, however big or small.

• You've shipped landing pages end-to-end (Webflow, Framer). Web is a plus, not core.

• You've designed for live events at scale.

• You've run your own studio or freelance practice.

• You've built internal AI tooling for a design team.

Compensation

Top-of-the-market salary and the kind of ownership that only exists at this stage.

The best work happens when you're in the room. Munich, New York, Dublin, and Warsaw. Remote for some roles.
