Brand Designer

San Francisco, CA, United States

Grammarly is excited to offer a remote-first hybrid working model . Team members work primarily remotely in the United States, Canada, Ukraine, Germany, or Poland. Certain roles have specific location requirements to facilitate collaboration at a particular Grammarly hub.

All roles have an in-person component: Conditions permitting, teams meet 2–4 weeks every quarter at one of Grammarly’s hubs in San Francisco, Kyiv, New York, Vancouver, and Berlin, or in a workspace in Kraków. This flexible approach gives team members the best of both worlds: plenty of focus time along with in-person collaboration that fosters trust and unlocks creativity.

Grammarly team members in this role must be based in the United States or Canada, and they must be able to collaborate in person 2 weeks per quarter, traveling if necessary to the hub(s) where the team is based.

Grammarly is the world’s leading AI writing assistance company trusted by over 30 million people and 70,000 professional teams every day. From instantly creating a first draft to perfecting every message, Grammarly’s product offerings help people at 96% of the Fortune 500 get their point across—and get results. Grammarly has been profitable for over a decade because we’ve stayed true to our values and built an enterprise-grade product that’s secure, reliable, and helps people do their best work—without selling their data. We’re proud to be one of Inc.’s best workplaces, a Glassdoor Best Place to Work, one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies, and one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in AI.

To achieve our ambitious goals, we’re looking for a Brand Designer to serve an integral role in shaping the vision for our brand and how we communicate the value of our product at a global scale. In partnership with other creatives (visual, writing, operations, and producers), marketers, product designers, product managers, researchers, engineers, and other stakeholders across the company, this designer will elevate the craft of brand creative, identity, and systems that scale how our brand is expressed and experienced. This role sits on the Creative Team, part of the Global Marketing and Creative organization.

Your impact

As a Brand Designer at Grammarly, you’ll build on an existing body of work and help our team evolve the Creative discipline and practice. This role requires close partnerships with go-to-market partners and teams focused on everything across demand generation, field events, organic acquisition, and lifecycle marketing. You’ll continue to raise the bar for creative excellence and craft as you shape and build awareness for Grammarly and its product benefits.

Within your first 30 days, you’ll immerse yourself in Grammarly’s brand, marketing motions, and product strategy while building relationships with your cross-functional teammates.

By month three, you’ll be working confidently within the creative process, synthesizing research data into insights and working closely with internal stakeholders to develop creative across numerous brand touchpoints and marketing efforts for Grammarly’s professional and enterprise customers. Concepting, prototyping, testing, and designing solutions to visual communication challenges at scale are specific skills you’ll leverage heavily by this time.

By month six, you will have established a dynamic yet consistent visual and strategic approach for your areas of responsibility. Initially, you will focus on supporting and elevating Revenue Marketing’s programs (account-based marketing, retaining and expanding experience, and field marketing).

By year one, you are an established critical and trusted partner across different functions who supports multiple high-visibility projects from concept to delivery.
