For over a decade, business phones have stagnated in functionality and user experience, while the rest of the software ecosystem has continued to evolve rapidly. Often these phone solutions are built around a legacy view of how the phone works, or how people communicate.
OpenPhone is taking advantage of this unique opportunity to bring the business phone out of the stone age, and redefine what a phone can do with a fresh perspective. What we build will set the bar for years to come.
It's a particularly special time to join OpenPhone. We announced our
$14M Series A funding round last year – led by David Sacks at Craft Ventures, with participation from Y Combinator, Slow Ventures, Kindred Ventures, and a group of incredible angel investors – and are now looking to rapidly grow our team.
As part of this growth, we're looking for a versatile and passionate Visual Designer with experience across a multitude of digital channels, including (but not limited to) web, brand, marketing, and social. As an early member of our small but mighty design team, you'll have the ability to make a big impact in the way we tell our story to the world.
Some of the things you’ll do
- Tackle a broad range of design challenges across all of our communication touch points, including our website, stand-alone landing pages, blog, email, social channels, marketing, advertisements, presentations, and internal comms.
- Help us communicate to our customers through visual storytelling.
- Create beautiful assets and visuals for social and marketing projects.
- Help support and evolve our visual brand identity systems and guidelines.
- Roll up your sleeves and get involved, collaborate with the rest of the team, and help us deliver something truly special!
About you
- You have 5+ years of professional design experience, including strong fundamentals across visual/graphic design, web, branding, editorial, and marketing.
- You have a natural eye for colour, typography and layout, and love creating beautiful visuals that tell a compelling story.
- You’re passionate about what you do, and are dedicated to delivering the highest level of quality in everything you create.
- You're able to stay on top of current design trends and best practices, but also know when to venture off and break the mould.
- You have a flawless attention to detail. Mention the word zesty in your application.
- You're a self-starter and excellent communicator, able to thrive in a fast-paced, remote working environment.
- You can be scrappy and versatile when needed, able to wear many hats and work outside of your comfort zone.
- Bonus points if you have motion design, video editing, or copywriting skills!
We understand that there's no such thing as a perfect candidate. Above all else, we're looking for people who are passionate and determined, and who are excited to face the challenges of a rapidly growing startup. OpenPhone is a place where you can grow exponentially, and we encourage you to apply to us even if you don't 100% match the exact candidate description.
