Brand Design Engineer

Brand Design Engineer

We're a Series C startup that has raised over $100M from Emergence Capital, Scale Venture Partners, Y Combinator, and the founders of Pay Pal and Twilio.

Our mission is to build the world's most human AI phone agents. Thousands of businesses rely on Bland AI to automate customer conversations while delivering an experience customers actually enjoy.

We're growing quickly, and marketing plays a critical role in how the world experiences Bland. Every website interaction, campaign, product launch, piece of content, and brand expression is an opportunity to make Bland feel differentiated, credible, and world-class.

We're looking for a Brand Design Engineer to help define what that looks like.

Bland is building one of the most ambitious companies in AI, and our brand needs to match the ambition of the product.

We're looking for someone with exceptional design taste who can own the visual quality of our marketing—from brand systems and creative direction to the website itself.

This is a hybrid design + technical role.

You should have a strong foundation in design and an obsessive eye for typography, composition, motion, interaction, and visual systems. But you should also be comfortable working directly in code.

Our website is custom-built, and we want the person who owns it to be able to actually make changes—not just write tickets for an engineer.

You’ll use modern AI coding tools like Claude Code to build, iterate, and ship design directly to the website.

You’ll work closely with Brand, Content, Product Marketing, Growth, and Engineering to make Bland's entire marketing presence feel cohesive, polished, and unmistakably ours.

Own the visual design direction across the marketing organization.

Develop and maintain the systems, guidelines, templates, and visual language that make Bland consistently look exceptional across web, campaigns, events, content, social, and product launches.

Raise the creative bar across everything marketing produces.

Take end-to-end ownership of Bland's marketing website.

Keep it current with new products, launches, case studies, campaigns, and messaging.

Continuously improve its design, UX, performance, responsiveness, accessibility, and overall quality.

Identify things that feel broken, outdated, inconsistent, or mediocre—and fix them.

Work directly in our custom codebase to implement your designs.

Use tools like Claude Code and other AI development tools to rapidly prototype, iterate, and ship new experiences.

You don't need to be a traditional software engineer, but you should be comfortable understanding a codebase, making frontend changes, debugging issues, and turning a design into a polished production experience.

Develop and evolve Bland's visual identity across typography, color, layout, illustration, motion, photography, iconography, and interaction.

Create systems that allow the rest of the marketing team to move quickly without sacrificing quality.

Know when to create a reusable system and when to break the rules for something exceptional.

Work closely with Product Marketing to bring new products, features, launches, and narratives to life.

Turn positioning and messaging into compelling visual experiences across the website and broader marketing ecosystem.

Design landing pages, campaign experiences, launch pages, interactive experiences, event materials, social creative, and other high-visibility marketing assets.

Think beyond static design. Look for ways to use interaction, motion, and technology to make Bland's marketing memorable.

Own the quality bar for marketing design.

Establish QA processes for the website and other digital experiences.

Regularly audit the site for visual inconsistencies, broken experiences, outdated content, responsive issues, and opportunities to improve.

Don't wait for someone to tell you something needs fixing.

You have an unusually high bar for design.

You understand why something feels premium,…
