Senior Designer (Brand and Marketing)

About Plane

Plane is an incisive response to config-heavy, opinionated, and restrictive project management software. Read our manifesto. In just two years, Plane’s grown to #1 in its category on GitHub and become a viable open-core alternative to Jira, Monday, Wrike, Asana, ClickUp, and Linear, not to mention all-in-one tools like Notion or Obsidian.

Our growth has come on the back of the product’s true flexibility without artificial limits, simple configurations that work out of the box, and thoughtfully packaged features that nurture our customers’ growth instead of punishing it.

As a modern product start-up, we obsess over new and power users equally. Our mission is to empower teams everywhere with the simplest, most delightful work management experience on the planet. Our vision is to become the WorkOS of the future with a workbench of unified tools and techniques that intuitively and progressively form a greater whole for knowledge workers.

We’re well capitalized, backed by OSS Capital, and are revenue-positive. Our coworkers include ex-Microsoft, Deloitte, [24]7, Nutanix, and Yahoo! in our 50-strong workforce today.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Brand & Marketing Designer to join Plane’s small but mighty creative team. You’ll shape how the world sees, feels, and remembers Plane — across every touchpoint. You’re someone who brings visual storytelling to life, sharpens narratives, and turns abstract ideas into design systems that scale across campaigns, screens, and cultures.

This role sits at the intersection of brand and business: part visionary, part builder, always clear.

What You’ll Do

• Champion the Plane brand — evolve its visual language and ensure coherence across digital, social, experiential, and product marketing channels.

• Design and lead multi-platform marketing campaigns — from ideation to execution — across product launches, thought leadership, videos, events, and more.

• Collaborate with founders, engineers, and marketers to tell crisp, clear stories that reflect our values and vision.

• Take ownership of key brand projects including website design, social creative, motion graphics, and content marketing assets.

• Inspire and guide external agencies, freelancers, and partners — always with an eye on design clarity and brand integrity.

• Keep your ear to the ground on culture, design trends, and tech — and bring fresh inspiration into the brand.

• Contribute to the evolution of our design systems and drive cross-functional design rituals that promote creative excellence.

What We’re Looking For

• A sharp, versatile design portfolio that shows both concept and craft across campaigns, storytelling, and digital assets.

• 4+ years of experience in brand, marketing, or content design — preferably in a high-growth tech company or creative agency.

• Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite; bonus if you dabble in motion, code, or AI tools.

• Proven ability to pitch ideas, present confidently, and guide stakeholders toward great creative outcomes.

• Ability to simplify complex ideas and work independently with structured thinking.

• Collaborative mindset — you work well with marketers, engineers, and founders alike.

• Comfort working in ambiguity and shipping quickly with care.

Why Join Plane?

• You’ll shape the visual identity of an ambitious company early in its journey.

• You’ll join a lean, high-talent team that values independence, honesty, and excellence.

• You’ll get to work in the open, contribute to an open-source ecosystem, and build something the world can see and use.

• We care deeply about craft — and we’ll support you in leveling up yours.
