Summary: You're the single point of excellence for ClickUp's visual brand. You set the standard and ensure every touchpoint (from landing pages to social to product marketing assets) feels cohesive and world-class. But here's what makes this different: you're building a design system that AI tools and non-designers can produce bar-raising creatives on their own with your infrastructure. You build the guardrails that make everyone else excellent and ensure the company is never bottlenecked by design.

  • Own, maintain, and evolve ClickUp's brand design system (tokens, components, patterns, guidelines), continuously elevating the aesthetic bar as the brand grows
  • Serve as quality gatekeeper: review and approve brand-facing creative produced by AI tools, vibe-coded outputs, and external agencies
  • Create and maintain design system documentation, templates, component libraries, and automation-friendly asset packages that enable others to produce on-brand work without design support
  • Design and ship high-volume web assets (landing pages, campaign pages, feature announcements) alongside high-impact brand moments like launches and keynotes
  • Audit and rebuild the brand design system from incomplete foundations, establishing documentation and structure where little currently exists
  • 8+ years of brand/visual design experience, with significant time owning or leading a design system
  • Exceptional portfolio demonstrating mastery of typography, layout, color, motion, and systematic thinking
  • Actively uses AI design tools (Midjourney, Firefly, Claude Design, Figma AI, etc.) and AI-assisted coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar) in their current workflow, with light familiarity with GitHub.
  • Has built or adapted design systems specifically to enable high-quality AI-generated outputs at scale.
  • Experience building design systems used at scale, including templates, component libraries, and constraints that enable non-designers and AI tools to produce on-brand output consistently
  • Experience QA'ing and refining AI-generated design outputs; knows where AI breaks down and how to build guardrails
  • Thrives as the sole designer on a team, making high-quality decisions autonomously with AI and tooling as force multipliers
