Job description
Proximity Labs is a global team of coders, designers, product managers, geeks, and experts who specialize in solving Performance, Scale, and UX challenges for growth-stage and enterprise companies. We build cutting-edge tech products and solve long-term engineering and design problems. We are currently working with international giants like Nasdaq, Disney, ESPN, Hotstar, and several hyper-growth companies across NA & EU.
We are looking for a Visual/Graphic Designer to drive all of our visual communication. We are a fast-growing company with a unique and vibrant brand. We’re looking for a talented visual designer who can understand our essence and aesthetic and take it forward into all of our communication, online or otherwise. You need to be creative, excel at your craft, and basically be an ideas person — someone capable of seeing a creative or a campaign through all the way from conceptualisation to completion. Occasionally, you will have the opportunity to work on visual design and art direction for client projects as well.
you’ll be responsible for—
- Maintaining and communicating a consistent brand online. You need to understand who we are and ensure that everything we put out aligns with our identity.
- Taking a creative brief, brainstorming for ideas, and coming up with detailed concepts to present to the team.
- Coming up with visually engaging, conceptually sound, on-brand visuals to post on our social media accounts and blogs.
- Creating intelligent, engaging visuals and illustrations for our websites.
- Designing in-house communication and merchandise.
- Applying these skills to client projects when required.
you need —
- A strong portfolio of your visual design work.
- Excellent graphic design, layout, and typography skills.
- Strong illustration skills with the ability to adapt and create various styles.
- Strong expertise in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. Bonus points if you’re skilled with Procreate.
- Intermediate motion design skills and some familiarity with After Effects.
- An innate understanding of internet trends and pop culture.
- A quick, curious, creative mind, Ideation and conceptualisation is an important part of this job!
- High standards for the work you ship. We expect high-quality designs, attention to detail, and a certain level of polish in everything we put out.
what you get—
- 100% remote team: Work from anywhere you, please.
- Flexible timings: Set your own hours, and create a production schedule that works for you.
- Best in class salary: We hire only the best, and we pay accordingly.
- Proximity Talks: Meet other designers, engineers, and product geeks — and learn from experts in the field.
- Keep on learning with a world-class team: Work with the best in the field, challenge yourself constantly, and learn something new every day.
proximity Values—
- Born without boundaries: We are a fully remote & distributed team of like-minded people who love a good challenge and thrive in a culture of complexity and innovation.
- Communicate, communicate, over-communicate: We insist that everyone communicate constantly, openly, and proactively. We encourage asynchronous communication over synchronous, large written briefs over Zoom calls, open channel messages over Slack DMs. It’s the only way to function efficiently as a remote team.
- Choose to act, and dare to fail: We encourage our team to act decisively, make mistakes, and learn from them. Every mistake is an opportunity to learn, but every moment wasted hesitating is an opportunity lost.
- Focus on the marathon, ease off on the sprint: Burnout is real, painful, and expensive. We nip it in the bud by offering flexible work schedules and 40 hour work weeks.
- We are a work in progress: Every product we roll out can be made even better. Our best talent can grow even further. We believe that everyone and everything is always a work in progress, and we invest heavily in tools and courses that can help us grow.
- We make our differences count: At Proximity, we go out of our way to hire exceptional talent from different places, people with different backgrounds, ideas, approaches, and opinions. We are designers, programmers, tinkerers, writers, bikers, runners, divers, chefs, brewers, musicians, hikers, travelers, volunteers, parents, and hard workers. Our differences are powerful — they help us remember that there is no single right way of thinking and help us stay curious and humble.
