About The Position

Taxbit is seeking its first dedicated brand designer to build the company's brand identity. This role will be responsible for creating marketing collateral, contributing to website redesigns, developing the brand system, and producing short-form motion and video assets. The designer will also play a role in design enablement by creating templates and reusable systems to elevate design standards across the company. This position operates within a small, high-leverage marketing team that utilizes AI tooling for efficiency. The designer will report directly to the Head of Content, Brand & Design and is expected to have a high standard of craft, with a taste for editorial and typographic design. The work focuses on enterprise compliance, requiring a practical approach where craft is embedded in structure rather than surface decoration. The ideal candidate will have a strong point of view on typography and information architecture, and be excited to contribute to shaping Taxbit into a global brand.

Requirements

Strong fundamentals: typography, layout, visual hierarchy, color, systems thinking. These are non-negotiable.
Range across deliverables: Brand identity, marketing collateral, web. You don't need to be elite at all of them — show us one area you've gone deep in and the rest at credible competence.
Real motion or video work in your portfolio: short-form narrative cuts, animated explainers, kinetic typography, product walkthroughs. Motion is a strong differentiator for this role and we'll lean toward candidates who can demonstrate it.
Comfort with an AI-augmented workflow. You don't need to have used every tool, but you should be curious about them and integrate them into how you work.
Comfortable working remotely across time zones. The marketing team is distributed across the US and EMEA.
You love design. Not as a job, as a discipline. You read about it, argue about it, notice it everywhere, and you're still excited about it on a Wednesday afternoon.

Nice To Haves

Experience designing for a B2B audience or technical product, especially in fintech, compliance, infrastructure, or developer tools.
A point of view on how brand and content work together. We treat them as one system, not two adjacent functions.
Experience working in or building a design system from zero, not just maintaining one.

Responsibilities

Design marketing collateral that actually moves deals: sales decks, RFP responses, 1-pagers, factsheets, landing pages, event assets, social cards.
Partner on the Phase 1 website redesign, owning visual direction, layouts, and component-level craft alongside the broader team.
Build and evolve the brand system as we go: Typography, color, layout, iconography, the visual register of the voice. Build it through artifacts, not guideline decks.
Produce short-form motion and video assets: product explainers, social cuts, conference loops, animated stat callouts, kinetic typography. Polish over volume.
Help raise the design bar across Taxbit. Contribute to templates, components, and reusable artifacts so the broader team (PMM, sales, customer marketing) can produce strong work.
Make good design accessible, not gatekept.
Use an AI design stack as leverage in your day-to-day.
Work cross-functionally on the visual layer of enablement materials, campaigns, and launches.
