Graphic Designer

The irony of looking for real human jobs through really not human, robotic job sites is not lost on us. We’re Airtime, and we value real interactions both as an app and as people who are building an app. We’re looking for a Marketing Designer with a killer book and a winning personality to join our creative team. Still interested? Keep reading.

Your role will be hands on in the conception, design, and execution of a wide range of marketing and brand development projects. We are a small team and we move fast, so being a self starter and having a motivated personality is a must. If you see a problem, let’s work together to fix it. If you have down time, identify something that could be improved and dive right in.

We are currently working with some of the industry’s most respected players to update our brand positioning and visual identity. With this in mind, while day to day will include standard production tasks, you will be joining at an integral time to have a real voice in the future of the brand.
