Role

Who you are

Early-to-mid career designer (2–5 years relevant experience): you have a portfolio showing strong fundamentals in layout and digital design
Proficient in Figma (or similar): you're eager to grow skills in component libraries, grids, and scalable content design
Detail-obsessed: you sweat type, spacing, and visual clarity
Collaborative: you enjoy feedback, iteration, and working across functions
Adaptive: comfortable creating everything from module layouts to infographics to iconography
Bonus: experience with motion design tools (After Effects, Lottie, Rive) or in e-learning/educational design

What the job involves

Adaptive is looking for a Visual Designer to join our Content Team, shaping the look and feel of our security awareness training
You’ll help us bring complex cybersecurity concepts to life through clean, engaging visuals that make learning stick
This is a product-facing role: you will design 3d art, infographics, layouts, and motion elements inside our training module and newsletters
It’s a great fit for a designer who wants to specialize in learning and product design, while collaborating with product managers, product designers, and engineers
This role will start as a contractor role, with potential to transition into a full-time opportunity based on performance and business need
Design training visuals: Create 3d art, icons, gifs, and layouts that make complex security topics clear and engaging
Elevate learning experiences: Translate written scripts into compelling visual narratives inside our training platform
Support consistency: Apply Adaptive’s design system and content style guidelines across modules and keep assets organized
Collaborate with content creators: Work closely with product managers and produce designers to ensure visuals enhance learning, not just decorate it
Experiment with motion/animation: Use lightweight motion to bring key learning moments to life
Contribute to accessibility: Design with diverse learners in mind, ensuring clarity, readability, and accessibility in all visuals

Our take

With AI-powered scams and deepfakes on the rise, companies are struggling to keep their teams safe from ultra-realistic phishing attacks.

That's where Adaptive comes in with its next-generation security training platform built to tackle the kind of threats traditional tools can't keep up with. In short, Adaptive helps people spot the fakes before they get fooled. And it does so by using lifelike simulations across email, voice, and SMS to train employees for real world attacks.

It's clearly working too as they've recently raised $55M, backed by OpenAI and Andreessen Horowitz. The company's already trusted by the Dallas Mavericks, First State Bank, BMC and more too. And with threats evolving fast, Adaptive is set to continue helping companies protect their people.
