About FluidStack

Fluidstack is the AI Cloud Platform. We build GPU supercomputers for top AI labs, governments, and enterprises. Our customers include Mistral, Poolside, Black Forest Labs, Meta, and more.

Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on providing a world class supercomputing experience. We put our customers first in everything we do, working hard to not just win the sale, but to win repeated business and customer referrals.

We hold ourselves and each other to high standards. We expect you to care deeply about the work you do, the products you build, and the experience our customers have in every interaction with us.

You must work hard, take ownership from inception to delivery, and approach every problem with an open mind and a positive attitude. We value effectiveness, competence, and a growth mindset.

About the role

We're seeking an experienced brand designer to help spearhead the development of our creative identity. You will be responsible for visually telling a fast-evolving company narrative with ample greenfield to break conventions and push creative boundaries. The successful candidate will be part of a small but growing communications team, with the opportunity to work alongside our senior leadership in bringing ideas to life.

Focus

• Under our Director of Strategic Communications, you will work with a small team in spearheading the company's broader external identity - in which you will lead the development of a distinct, unique vision for brand design.
• You will help define, articulate, and update our master brand - spanning design requirements across everything from events, to website, and digital media.
• Use design principles to create distinct product identities for different offerings, and lead in the development of a compelling subbrand identity.
• Collaborate with senior and communications stakeholders on how to successfully complement and enhance an evolving verbal identity and wider brand narrative.

About You

• 10+ years of design experience, either as part of an agency or with an in-house brand team, this would ideally come alongside experience working within the AI/software/technology space.
• You're comfortable leading the evolution of a visual identity as a part of the organizations' communications team, alongside working with senior stakeholders on enterprise aims and their ideas around visual grammar.
• You have a portfolio demonstrating a wide scope of work across different mediums, with the ability to quickly apply design direction across a vast variety of different projects.
• Experience creating physical and digital design assets for events of all sizes, including by not limited to conferences, expos, and internal events.
• An understanding of website design, as well as the ability to communicate design strategies to web developers and other stakeholders.
• Excellent organizational skills, with a willingness to help make design assets accessible to teams across the organization.
• An interest in designing for social media, and how to produce assets that stand out on different digital platforms.
• A willingness to push boundaries in a very uniform field, we believe our visual identity will be vital in separating ourselves as a business and brand.
• Proficiency in Adore Creative Suite (including but not limited to Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop, and other programmes), and Figma.

Nice to haves

• A working understanding of motion and animation design - as well as a willingness to collaborate with those who are specialists in these fields.
• Comfortable leading creative direction as a part of film shoots and motion projects.
• A basic interest in photography and/or photo editing for social media platforms.

Benefits

• Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).
• Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.
