Role
Who you are
- 3+ years of experience in a designer role
- 2+ years of experience designing for technical B2B companies—bonus if in startups or high-growth environments
- Strong portfolio showing range across web, brand, marketing, and visual storytelling
- Ability to work autonomously and own the end-to-end design process
- Comfortable turning ambiguous ideas into concrete visual outputs
- Highly collaborative, with strong communication skills and design rationale
- A deep appreciation for technical audiences—engineers, operators, decision-makers
- Figma fluency required; bonus points for motion, Webflow, or frontend familiarity
What the job involves
- We’re hiring a Full-Stack Designer to support our Go-to-market teams and help shape how the world sees Sift
- This isn’t a support role. You’ll be the driver of our visual identity across every external touchpoint—website, content, campaigns, product storytelling, and sales enablement
- You won’t be designing the product itself. You’ll be designing how the product is understood—crafting visuals that make our value resonate with a deeply technical audience in aerospace, defense, and advanced manufacturing
- This is a rare opportunity to define and evolve the visual brand of a fast-growing startup
- You’ll set the standard for brand consistency and creative execution, acting as a key partner to product marketing, sales, and leadership
- You’ll turn complexity into clarity—and ensure everything we put into the world reflects the quality of what we’re building inside
- In this role, you’ll also have the support of a design agency to work with on larger projects on a monthly basis
- To thrive in this role, you should have a genuine passion for technology, space, and the next generation of machines
- Our customers build rockets, autonomous vehicles, propulsion systems, satellite constellations, and more—you should be energized by that world and excited to craft a brand that speaks directly to it
- You’ll have a wide surface area, high trust, and a direct impact on building a world class brand
- Design Sift’s external-facing materials: website graphics, landing pages, social posts, diagrams, visuals, slide decks, and more
- Collaborate with marketing and product teams to translate product capabilities into clear, compelling visuals
- Build brand cohesion across every touchpoint—from web to sales assets to motion
- Design and maintain our visual systems to support scale as the company grows
- Own execution and quality across GTM initiatives
- Develop new design patterns for how we explain complex ideas and workflows
- Create artifacts that help buyers understand the product: visual explainers, conceptual diagrams, product visuals
- Stay closely aligned with product and product marketing to ensure our visual language evolves with the product
Application process
- ***Please include a link to your design portfolio with your application. Applications submitted without design portfolios will not be reviewed
Our take
Sift develops tools to accelerate and ensure the reliability of complex machines. Its platform processes hardware sensor data, providing automated analysis and detailed reports to identify and explain potential issues. This enables users in aviation, defense, energy and transportation to enhance system reliability and comply with regulatory requirements more efficiently.
The platform automates manual data review, which both enhances reliability and speeds up development. Customers like Astranis and Parallel Systems use Sift's observability stack to turn sensor data into actionable insights, which would have likely remained undiscovered when using other systems.
With funding to its name, Sift is ready to broaden its manufacturing automation suite to link sensor data with manufacturing information. This will mean it can help with anomaly detection and performance analysis. It is also making advancements with AI integration for regulatory compliance, which sets it up as a key innovator in the space.
