On-siteArt & Creative$140k–$220k/yrFull-time
About the role
We're looking for a Designer to make Sauna beautiful, from the brand that represents it to the pixel-perfect screens users see every day. This isn't an abstract "design thinking" role. You'll take user flows the product team has designed and execute them to the highest visual standard: typography, color, spacing, interactions, all of it. You'll also own how Sauna looks to the world: brand guidelines, marketing materials, and the visual identity that earns attention.
You'll report to the CEO and Head of Product.
Responsibilities
- Turn user flows into pixel-perfect, production-ready Figma files
- Work closely with the product designer and engineering to ensure visual fidelity across all surfaces
- Build and maintain brand guidelines: typography, color, iconography, visual language
- Design all outward-facing brand assets: website, social, launch content, decks
- Own the visual consistency of the product across web, mobile, and email
- Move fast: iterate on designs in hours, not days
Requirements
- Have 3+ years of visual design experience, with a portfolio that shows pixel-level craft
- Be proficient in Figma: you prototype and specify in Figma faster than anyone
- Understand the difference between design and art: every decision serves a user and a goal
- Have strong brand instincts: you can take a brand direction and build a complete system from it
- Be able to execute from a brief without needing to own the strategy
- Work cleanly: organized files, clear naming, design systems you'd actually want to maintain
Qualifications
- Experience at a fast-growing startup that shipped a polished consumer product (motion design skills, experience designing for both product and brand in the same company)
- A personal aesthetic: something distinct in your portfolio that isn't just "clean and minimal"
- A portfolio of brand work: logos, visual identities, design systems
Skills
- AI tools already in your workflow (Figma AI, code assistants, etc.)
Benefits
- Base salary: $140K–$220K
- + meaningful early-stage equity
- + health, dental, 401(k)
- + considerable PTO
- + gym budget
- + lunch
Pay
- $140K–$220K
Schedule
- In-person, full-time, based in San Francisco (Presidio)
