About Nen Creative

Nen Creative is an interdisciplinary studio helping tech startups launch bold ideas into the world - building the brands, products, and stories that power their growth.

Since 2022, we've partnered with some of the world's top founders and institutions - including Amazon, Pear VC, Andreessen Horowitz, Mercor, Context Inc, Netic, Listen Labs, Tech Week, and many more. We're growing crazy fast and are looking for amazing people to join us!

About the Opportunity

We're building the studio we always wanted to work at - fast-moving, design-led, and trusted by the best in tech. In a short time, we've gone from zero to partnering with Amazon, top VCs, and some of the most ambitious startups in the world.

Now we're looking for a Brand Designer to lead the creation of bold, modern brand identities and websites for high-growth startups. You'll join a small, focused team where your work has direct impact on how tomorrow's companies launch and scale.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the development of brand identities from concept through execution, including logos, typography, color systems, and full brand guidelines

• Design websites in Figma that translate brand strategy into strong digital experiences

• Create client-facing design assets across pitch decks, marketing collateral, social graphics, launch materials, and other brand touchpoints

• Extend brand systems across real-world applications to ensure the work feels cohesive beyond the initial identity

• Present and communicate work directly to clients, helping them make confident creative decisions

• Balance multiple design explorations with high-level craft and attention to detail

• Partner with creative directors, strategists, and PMs to ensure design outcomes align with client goals

• Drive visual consistency across brands, websites, decks, and marketing design projects

What We’re Looking For

• 2-4 years of experience in brand design (agency or studio preferred)

• A strong portfolio that showcases:

  • Brand identities created from scratch (not just refreshes or marketing visuals)

  • Website design that feels modern, clean, and built for tech/startup audiences

• Confidence in client communication - you can present work, explain rationale, and guide non-designers through decisions

• Strong grasp of typography, layout, and composition with a modern, tech-forward aesthetic

• Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite

• Ability to work independently while collaborating with a team in a fast-paced environment

Bonus Points

• Experience in Webflow or hands-on website building

• Motion, 3D, or illustration skills

• Marketing design experience across campaigns, social, or advertising

• Comfort working in unstructured, high-growth environments

Why Join Nen Creative

• Be part of a small, fast-growing studio trusted by world-class startups and investors

• Work directly with top founders shaping the future of tech

• Clear growth path as we scale

• Remote-friendly, flexible, and entrepreneurial environment
