[Hiring] Content & Brand Designer @Somewhere

Role Description

We are looking for a proactive, design-driven Content & Brand Designer who understands both clean visual design and modern social media execution. This is a versatile, startup-style role for someone who goes beyond just doing "what they are asked." You will take raw data, tight briefs, statistical insights, and brand assets, transforming them into crisp, easy-to-digest editorial graphics, social posts, and high-stakes presentation decks.

You should be a "startup generalist" at heart—someone who cares deeply about brand identity, understands modern content consumption habits, and is comfortable stepping in to schedule, post, and support social strategy when needed.

Key Responsibilities

• Graphic Design & Asset Creation (Decks, Data & Editorial)
  • Presentation Decks: Design and format polished, executive-ready pitch decks, client presentations, and internal slide decks with strong layout hierarchy, typography, and visual flow.
  • Data Visualization & Editorial Graphics: Turn tight briefs, percentages, complex data points, and quotes into clean, visually engaging infographics and editorial graphics.
  • Static Creative: Execute high-quality static assets, image overlays, and brand collateral—mastering font pairing, kerning, leading, white space, and color harmony.
  • Brand Guardian: Maintain total visual consistency across all creative outputs, ensuring visual identity is respected and elevated.
• Social Strategy, Content & Execution
  • Platform-Native Design: Design graphics specifically tailored to how audiences consume content on modern feeds (X/Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram)—focusing on quick readability, visual hooks, and thumb-stopping layouts.
  • Social Posting & Support: Help schedule and publish static content, text updates, and visual posts directly to platforms (including X/Twitter), stepping in to keep the social engine running smoothly.
  • Proactive Content Iteration: Stay attuned to modern social trends, identifying gaps in the content feed and proactively proposing visual ideas rather than waiting for a rigid brief.

Qualifications

• Hands-on, professional expertise in both Graphic Design and Content Creation as primary skill sets.
• 3+ years of professional experience in graphic design, content creation, or visual social media marketing.
• Strong portfolio featuring:
  • Clean presentation deck design.
  • Editorial graphics, infographics, or data/text overlays.
  • Platform-native social media content (X/Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.).
• Strong mastery of typography, layout composition, spatial awareness, color theory, and visual hierarchy.
• Highly proficient in Adobe Creative Cloud (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign), Figma, and presentation tools (Google Slides, Keynote, PowerPoint, or Canva).
• High agency and adaptability. Comfortable wearing multiple hats, working in a fast-paced environment, and going above and beyond to solve creative problems.
• Excellent written and spoken English skills to handle text overlays, copy formatting, and internal collaboration.

Preferred Attributes & Mindset

• Very High Curiosity (Non-Negotiable): An intrinsically inquisitive mindset—constantly exploring new ideas, asking thoughtful questions, and digging deeper into why things work.
• Self-Sufficient Problem Solver: A resourceful self-starter who asks great questions and proactively finds solutions rather than waiting to be told what to do.
• Tech Sector Knowledge & Enthusiasm: Genuine enthusiasm for technology, paired with a solid grasp of tech and tech-adjacent sectors—particularly what is happening at the frontier of innovation.
• Pragmatic AI Tooling Adoption: An understanding of AI tools (or a strong willingness to adopt them) purely to work faster and smarter day-to-day (not for generating core brand assets or final imagery).
• Social Growth Mechanics: An understanding of growth mechanics and performance drivers from a social media perspective.
• Startup Experience: Experience working in a remote, fast-moving startup environment.
• Platform Familiarity: Familiarity with social media management and scheduling tools.
