• Cultivated a community of more than 650,000 active developers and builders

Senior Brand Designer at n8n

As Senior Brand Designer, you’ll help shape and evolve n8n’s visual identity by defining how our brand shows up across every touchpoint. You’ll bridge strategy and craft, turning ideas into design systems, campaigns, and experiences that express n8n’s personality and mission. This is a hands-on senior IC role with hands-on involvement as well as directing. This means you will be designing, prototyping and shipping assets yourself. You will also manage and collaborate with contractors, agencies and vendors to scale our output.

You’ll work closely with the Brand Lead and Senior Brand Manager to plan, prioritize and deliver impactful creative work that tells the n8n story with clarity and originality. You are as comfortable pushing pixels in Figma as you are setting direction, giving feedback and ensuring external partners deliver on brief, on time and on brand. Here are the full responsibilities…

Hands-on craft

• Lead concepting and execute design across digital, social and event touchpoints.

• Design and ship key assets yourself in Figma, from campaign visuals to product marketing materials and event collateral.

• Evolve n8n’s brand system and guidelines, ensuring scalability and cohesion.

• Create motion explorations, prototypes, moodboards and production ready files when needed.

• Balance day-to-day design requests while advancing larger brand initiatives.

Partner and vendor leadership

• Scope, brief and manage contractors, agencies and vendors to deliver high-quality creative work.

• Partner with the Brand Operations Manager to prioritize projects, manage timelines and keep the creative pipeline running smoothly.

• Provide clear direction and actionable feedback to internal collaborators and external partners.

• Ensure creative alignment and quality across all brand expressions and channels.

• Track progress, unblock work and uphold standards for craft and consistency.

Cross-functional collaboration

• Collaborate with Marketing, Product, Community and other teams across n8n to drive clarity and cohesion.

• Act as a brand advocate, helping others understand and apply our visual identity.

• Contribute to a culture of creativity through inspiration, experimentation and mentorship.

REQUIREMENTS

About You

• 8+ years of experience in brand design, with a mix of agency and in-house experience preferred.

• Expert in Figma, with proficiency in additional creative tools (Adobe Creative Suite, motion, prototyping tools, etc.).

• Equally energized by hands-on design and by directing others; you can switch modes fluidly and know when each is needed.

• You stay inspired by what’s happening in design, culture, and technology, with interest in AI, automation and the future of creativity.

• You enjoy solving undefined problems and finding better, more creative ways to tell our story.

What You’ll Bring

• A portfolio that showcases brand identity, campaigns, and systems you personally designed as well as programs you directed with partners.

• Demonstrated ability to elevate a brand’s visual language while scaling output through contractors and vendors.

• A collaborative spirit. You care about the process as much as the outcome.

• A belief that great design is built on clarity, creativity, and consistency.

What We Value

• A product-first mindset rooted in empathy for users.

• Former founders & Entrepreneurs.

• Curiosity about workflow automation, orchestration and the future of AI.
