  • Be an active participant and leader in design critiques, providing thoughtful feedback across product and design teams
  • Play a significant role in the evolution of our brand, voice, and strategy as Descript grows as a company and product.

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of relevant work in a creative field - startup experience is a plus
  • Superb visual and conceptual skills to solve problems and create novel solutions.
  • Clear, direct communication (written and verbal) and effective collaboration with a diverse set of interest groups (designers, executives).
  • Empathy for users and eagerness to discover and resolve their pain points.
  • High levels of personal organization and process-orientation.
  • An eye for detail and craftsmanship, without compromising deadlines and constraints.
  • Ability to identify and frame problems and opportunities from a user-centric perspective, using data to inform design decisions and testing.
  • Expert-level knowledge of common motion graphics design software.
  • A portfolio that exhibits real passion for your craft and strong conceptual ability.

Nice to haves
