Lead Visual Designer - Zinier - Burlingame
Fresh off our Series B round led by Accel, along with Founders Fund, Qualcomm Ventures, Nokia-backed NGP Capital, and Newfund, we’re growing our team across all functions and regions!
At Zinier, we’re building a modern platform to help companies with large field service teams manage their complex businesses, logistics, and processes. This includes large telecom companies with hundreds, even thousands of technicians who install and repair equipment, to energy companies with expansive industrial infrastructure — really, any company that needs to install, maintain, and repair equipment out in the field.
As we take on the patchwork of legacy vendors in this space, we’re looking for a Lead Visual Designer with strong, proven conceptual and design skills. You’ll be leading all design efforts to establish and express our brand across a variety of channels and mediums. You’re a creative problem solver, taking business objectives and translating them into stunning visuals and experiences that leave an impression on people.

- Presenting work and building alignment around design direction and execution
- Staying on top of current and upcoming visual design trends and mediums to further our brand
- Managing any and all external creative partners and agencies
- Helping us leave the world of stock photos behind!

- 4+ years of experience as an art director, visual designer, graphic designer, interaction designer, or similar
- BA or BFA in design or related studies; or equivalent technical trade degree and experience in graphic design
- A strong portfolio of work showcasing your proven ability in crafting exceptional visuals and branding assets
