Full Job Description
Why Were Hiring This Role:
Vapi is scaling fast, and our brands surface area is scaling with it - from one-pagers and sales decks to our second user conference, VapiCon. We need someone who can own that surface end-to-end and raise the bar on craft.
Our marketing and sales teams are constantly shipping content, but design has been stretched thin and reactive. We need a dedicated senior designer who can build reusable systems (templates, components, guidelines) so the rest of the company can move fast without sacrificing quality.
VapiCon is one of the biggest bets were making this year to bring our developer and customer community together in person, and it needs a design owner who can carry it from concept to on-site execution.
What Youll Do:
30 Days: Ramp up on Vapis brand guidelines, voice, and existing asset library. Meet with marketing, sales, and events stakeholders to understand current pain points and pipeline. Audit and triage the highest-priority one-pagers and decks in flight, and ship your first polished deliverable.
60 Days: Own the design of core sales and marketing collateral (one-pagers, decks, pitch materials) and establish scalable templates/systems so others can self-serve on lower-stakes assets. Evaluate and make recommendations to improve design direction for VapiCon - visual identity, signage, stage graphics, swag, and attendee-facing materials.
90 Days: Be the go-to design owner for brand-facing collateral across the company. Drive VapiCons design production to completion in partnership with the events team. Propose a roadmap for evolving Vapis broader brand system based on what youve learned.
Who You Are:
7-10+ years of experience in brand or graphic design, ideally at a B2B SaaS or developer-tools startup, with a portfolio that shows range across print, digital, and event design.
Experience designing for live events or conferences (signage, stage/environmental graphics, swag) is a strong plus.
Expert in Figma; comfortable working within (and evolving) an existing brand system.
A self-starter who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment with shifting priorities, tight deadlines, and high ownership.
Strong collaborator who can partner closely with marketing, sales, and executive stakeholders, take feedback well, and push back thoughtfully when it serves the work.
How We Work:
Build something worthy of love - Craft matters. We aim to build products and experiences customers genuinely love, not just tolerate.
Commit and follow through - We finish what we start and build trust by being people others can count on.
Why not today? - We value urgency and momentum. The fastest path to customer value usually wins.
Seek raw input - We go directly to customers, data, and teammates instead of relying on summaries or assumptions.
Its our problem - We operate as one team. We share credit, own mistakes together, and support each other when things get hard.
Be direct and kind - We give feedback clearly, respectfully, and without delay.

Generational impact: Build the human interface for every business
