Staff Brand Designer
Flex, San Francisco, CA, United States
Flex is a growth‑stage, NYC‑headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2026 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?
About the role
We’re hiring a Senior Brand Designer to bring the Flex brand to life across our marketing ecosystem. This role sits within Brand Marketing and supports Performance Marketing, Lifecycle, Social, Product Marketing, and Partnerships. You will play a central role in implementing Flex’s rebrand across channels, translating our visual identity into high-impact creative across paid, owned, and campaign surfaces.
This is a senior individual contributor role for a designer with strong creative judgment, refined craft, and the ability to operate independently. You’ll move between concept and execution, applying a cohesive visual system across performance-driven, educational, and trust-building environments.
This is a hybrid position with on‑site expectations of 2‑3 days per week in our New York, San Francisco, or Salt Lake City headquarters. For candidates outside of the NY/NJ/SF/SLC area, you may be eligible for our relocation assistance program.
What you’ll do
Implement Flex’s rebrand across all marketing and owned surfaces, ensuring visual consistency and high craft.
Concept and execute brand‑forward creative across paid ads, landing pages, lifecycle templates, social content, presentations, partner materials, and campaign assets.
Translate a design‑led identity into scalable systems that work across digital, web, email, social, and emerging channels.
Create light motion graphics and simple animations to elevate paid media, social content, and web experiences.
Partner cross‑functionally with Brand, Growth, Lifecycle, PMM, and external agencies to deliver work that balances channel performance with long‑term brand equity.
Contribute to brand governance tools, templates, and asset frameworks that enable teams to produce on‑brand work efficiently.
Maintain a high creative bar while operating with speed in a regulated environment.
6–10+ years of experience in brand design, visual design, or art direction roles in high‑growth consumer brand or agency environments.
Exceptional portfolio demonstrating concept development and multidisciplinary expertise across web, paid media, lifecycle/email, social, and campaign systems.
Expertise in modern design and animation tools (Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, etc.) with the ability to execute across multiple formats and asset types.
Comfort and curiosity in experimenting with emerging AI‑driven design tools and workflows to improve speed, iteration, and creative efficiency.
Strong visual taste and attention to detail, with the ability to move quickly without sacrificing quality.
Proven ability to manage time independently, prioritize effectively, and juggle multiple concurrent workstreams in a fast‑paced environment.
Experience in FinTech or other regulated industries is a plus.
Flex takes a market‑based approach to pay, ensuring compensation is commensurate with a candidate's experience and our internal leveling guidelines.
For candidates located in our Tier 1 markets (NYC/SF), the base salary pay range for this role is $164,000—$205,000 USD.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?
We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress toward this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.
Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
