Job Description
ClickUp is an AI-native company developing an integrated AI workspace that combines tasks, documents, chat, calendars, and enterprise search. The organization expects all team members to utilize artificial intelligence daily and assesses AI fluency during recruitment. To support this vision, ClickUp is hiring a full-time Lead Brand Designer to act as the primary authority on visual branding.
In this position, you will establish visual standards and ensure that all public touchpoints—ranging from marketing collateral to web pages—maintain a cohesive and top-tier appearance. Rather than creating every asset manually, you will construct a comprehensive design system that empowers artificial intelligence tools and non-designers to generate quality creatives independently. This involves building necessary guardrails so that design never becomes an operational bottleneck.
This role suits an autonomous professional with extensive background in brand design who thrives as a sole contributor while leveraging technology as a multiplier. Qualified candidates will earn an annual salary ranging from USD 110,000 to USD 169,000.
Responsibilities
- Own, maintain, and evolve the brand design system including tokens, components, patterns, and guidelines
- Act as the quality gatekeeper by reviewing and approving brand-facing creative from AI tools, vibe-coded outputs, and external agencies
- Produce design system documentation, templates, component libraries, and automation-friendly asset packages for non-designers
- Design and ship high-volume web assets such as landing pages, campaign pages, and feature announcements
- Audit and rebuild the brand design system starting from incomplete foundations
- Make autonomous, high-quality decisions as the sole designer on a team utilizing AI and tooling
Requirements
- Have at least 8 years of brand or visual design experience with significant time owning or leading a design system
- Present a portfolio demonstrating expertise in typography, layout, color, motion, and systematic thinking
- Actively use AI design tools like Midjourney, Firefly, Claude Design, and Figma AI in current workflows
- Utilize AI-assisted coding tools such as Cursor or Claude Code, alongside light familiarity with GitHub
- Demonstrate experience building design systems used at scale with constraints for non-designers and AI tools
- Possess experience reviewing and refining AI-generated design outputs and establishing appropriate guardrails
