Desirable

• As our very first design hire, you will play a central role in conveying complex concepts and translating cutting-edge technical systems into compelling visual experiences across product, brand, marketing, and corporate communications
• You will be instrumental in helping Array Labs inspire, inform, and engage a diverse target audience, ranging from Fortune 500 customers and the world’s biggest technology companies to technical communities, policymakers, Allied governments, and the general public
• Visual Systems Architecture:
• Establish foundational design principles and processes as our first design hire
• Build scalable design systems across Array's entire product suite, from Site3D and World3D to USG offerings
• Design systems that translate planetary-scale datasets into human-readable and machine-actionable information, with a focus 3D visualization and analysis
• Prototype intuitive interfaces, visualization tools, and UX systems that make 3D data accessible and actionable
• Brand and Communications Strategy:
• Conceptualize, create, and maintain Array Labs' brand guidelines book
• Lead design for Array's most important communications, from product launches to corporate presentations
