But first, our values
Kindness - Kindness doesn’t just equal niceness. We listen to understand. We embrace, and encourage healthy debate and diverse perspectives. We approach conflict openly, honestly, and respectfully. Brilliance - Humility is the skill we’re most proud of and possessing a growth mindset is always top of mind. We take ownership in everything we touch; regularly using our unique superpowers to reach a common goal as a team. We succeed and fail as one. Grit - When challenges arise, we stay laser focused on achieving our mission and finding a way forward, even when it’s hard. We are nimble and maintain a sense of urgency, swiftly adapting to change and overcoming obstacles. The opportunity
We’re hiring a Senior Brand Designer to lead the visual evolution of Altruist across its entire ecosystem. This is not a support role. It’s a leadership role within brand responsible for shaping how our products show up across product surfaces, launches, campaigns, motion, storytelling, and emerging experiences.
The ideal candidate thinks quickly, designs thoughtfully, and pushes work beyond the obvious. They bring impeccable taste, a sharp point of view, and a deep understanding of contemporary design — while also knowing when restraint is the most powerful move. This designer will collaborate with product designers, motion designers, illustrators, and cross-functional teams to bring new ideas to life across the Altruist surfaces. This role operates as a thought partner to Creative Leadership on new Altruist initiatives and long-term brand direction.

Lead the visual design and ongoing evolution of the Altruist brand
Define and expand Altruist’s design language across product marketing, launches, web, campaigns, and in-product brand moments
Partner closely with Product Design to influence UX direction and ensure cohesive brand expression
Collaborate with motion designers and illustrators to create immersive, forward-looking experiences
Translate complex products into clear, elegant visual storytelling
Explore and responsibly integrate emerging tools and technologies into the creative workflow
Contribute to early-stage concepting for new Altruist initiatives and product expansions

What you bring
6–8+ years of brand design experience, ideally including product-adjacent work
A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft, strong systems thinking, and modern sensibility
Experience shaping or evolving a product-focused brand
Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite; bonus points for motion literacy
Strong understanding of current visual trends and digital culture
Ability to think conceptually and execute with precision
Comfort operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
Strong collaboration skills and the confidence to influence cross-functional partners
This role is a fit if...
You move fast without sacrificing craft
You care deeply about typography, hierarchy, interaction, and nuance
You experiment intelligently and push ideas forward
You can zoom out to system-level thinking and zoom in to pixel-level detail
What success looks like
Altruist has a distinctive, forward-looking visual identity that feels cohesive across product and brand
