THE ROLE IN A NUTSHELL We’re looking for a Brand Designer to bring the Chainguard brand to life across every channel. This role combines hands-on design and motion work with an eye for consistency, precision, and quality. You’ll collaborate with marketing, events, and content  teams to design, animate, and deliver assets that make our brand shine — whether that’s for social media, out-of-home campaigns, presentations, or large-scale events. WHAT YOU’LL DO * Design production: Design creative assets for digital and print, including social posts, presentation decks, launch assets, and event branding.  * Brand consistency: Ensure all creative output aligns with the Chainguard brand system and visual standards. * Event and campaign support: Produce assets for conferences, booths, and digital campaigns, from signage to swag. * Motion and animation: Develop short-form motion graphics and animations for marketing campaigns, product demos, and social content. * Cross-functional collaboration: Work closely with campaigns, content, and product marketing teams to execute creative deliverables efficiently and on deadline. * File management and handoff: Deliver final assets in proper formats and maintain organized, accessible design files for future use. * Quality assurance: Review creative deliverables to ensure accuracy, alignment, and design integrity across all platforms. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR * 3-5 years of experience in graphic design, or production design, with motion design experience (in-house preferred). * A strong sense of layout, typography, color, and visual hierarchy. * Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously. * Collaborative, proactive, and receptive to feedback. * Ability to turn complex technical ideas into clear, compelling creative work. * Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, etc.), and motion tools (Jitter, After Effects, Capsule). * You have a portfolio of outstanding work that highlights your strong design and motion skills across formats and channels, with attention to detail. * Bonus points for experience with developer-first or security brands. On-Target Earnings: $127,650 - $149,500 Base Salary Range $111,000—$130,000 USD ABOUT US We live and breathe our company values: * We are customer obsessed — We focus on delivering solutions to our customers that create value and make their lives better. * We have a bias for intentional action — We prioritize, plan, try things, and fail fast. * We don't take ourselves too seriously (but we do serious work) — We are solving an important problem which takes focus, but we also like to enjoy the journey. * We trust each other and assume good intentions — We're transparent with decisions to empower team members to make well informed decisions. A few of the benefits we offer: * Flexible & Remote-First Culture: Work remotely with team meetup opportunities, bi-annual destination summits, and a monthly stipend for coworking spaces, phone and internet costs. * Our Approach to Equity: Receive stock options upon hire and promotion. Plus, you can participate in secondary offerings and have 10 years to exercise your options (yes, you read that correctly: 10 years!). * 100% Covered Health Insurance: We cover 100% of your health, vision and dental insurance premiums for you and your dependents. Nothing comes out of your paycheck. * ∞ Flexible Time Off: Take the time you need – to do our best work, we need to recharge and reset. * 18 Weeks Paid Parental Leave: We offer 18 weeks for birthing parents and 12 weeks for non-birthing parents, with the option to use it all at once or throughout your child's first year.
