35d•$142,000 - $190,000

About The Position

Hex is seeking a Brand Designer to help build the next chapter of its brand. The role focuses on finding surprising, human, and memorable ways to work within and evolve Hex’s visual system. It spans campaigns, launches, events, editorial, social, web, and other creative projects, with particular emphasis on creating original visual work such as illustration, image-making, expressive graphic design, visual metaphors, and campaign concepts. The designer will help make a complex data product feel simple, compelling, and magical by translating technical capabilities into clear visual ideas and graphic languages. This is a generalist brand design role for someone who combines visual curiosity and a distinctive point of view with strong craft, systems thinking, and the ability to move from early exploration to polished execution. The designer will collaborate with teams across Brand, Product Marketing, Content, Events, and Growth, and may art direct external creative and production partners. Hex describes itself as a high-agency team with office hubs in San Francisco and New York and remote team members throughout the US and UK. The salary range is $140,000–$190,000, with placement dependent on factors including location, skills, experience, and internal fairness. Hex also offers equity, comprehensive health benefits, and flexible paid time off.
