This is a classic early-stage design moment: Thatch has strong product–market fit, and we’re ready to level up our brand. As our first full-time Brand Designer, you’ll define and evolve Thatch’s visual identity across every touchpoint. You’ll shape how the world experiences Thatch — from marketing sites and campaigns to motion, print, and event materials. You’ll have the autonomy to work from concept through launch, building a visual language that’s as thoughtful and human as the product we’re creating.
You’ll collaborate closely with marketing, product, and design leadership to ensure a consistent, high-quality brand presence across experiences. This role calls for exceptional taste, deep craft skills, and the ability to bring ideas to life across a range of media. Your work will make an immediate impact on how people experience healthcare.
- Define and evolve Thatch’s brand identity across all touchpoints.
- Design high-impact web pages, campaigns, and digital content that bring our story to life.
- Produce print and event materials — ads, postcards, merch, and collateral.
- Partner with growth marketing, product, and design leadership to ensure brand consistency across both marketing and product experiences.
- Bring fresh ideas and experiments into how we express our brand.
- You have 3–5 years of proven experience designing brands, visual identities, and marketing experiences, with a focus on startups, high-growth companies, or consumer-facing products.
- You have a deep understanding of how to craft cohesive visual systems that scale across web, product, print, and motion.
- You’re a master of craft — typography, color, layout, and visual hierarchy come naturally.
- You’re fluent with design tools like Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, and comfortable learning new tools as needed.
- You can tell a story with your work — present your ideas confidently and inspire cross-functional teams to rally behind your vision.
Why this might not be the role for you:
You might not want this job if you’re uncomfortable working in the open and sharing work early, need fully defined processes to feel productive, or prefer waiting for direction instead of identifying opportunities to make an impact. This is a generalist brand design role that thrives on collaboration, iteration, and self-driven problem-solving, where you’ll shape how we express our brand across every touchpoint.
- Push the limits of AI-driven creative workflows.
- Are skilled in motion and video.
- Can implement your own designs on the web (HTML/CSS/Framer).
We want this process to be transparent, thoughtful, and reflective of the work you’ll be doing every day. Our goal is to learn how you think, collaborate, and create — while giving you a clear sense of the team, our culture, and how we work together. Here’s what the process looks like:
- 30-minute phone screen to talk through your background and interest in Thatch.
- 30 minute first-round interview with the hiring manager to dive deeper into your experience, approach to design, and how you work.
- 30 minute team meetings to connect with two members of the team
- 60-minute portfolio review with members of the design team to walk through your projects, your process, and the impact of your work.
- 30 minute conversation with our founder to discuss culture, values, and how we operate as a company.
We aim to move efficiently while giving you space to share your thinking, ask questions, and get a real sense of what it’s like to work here.
We’re a fully distributed early stage company using technology to change the way America does healthcare. We’re a happy, friendly, high-velocity team. You can read more on Thatch here.
