Digital Designer

Who we are:

Hi there 👋 . We’re Ethena, a compliance training platform—with informative, cringe-free content delivered through innovative methods—that actually works. Our training isn’t just a thing people get through, it’s something they actually enjoy (we got the stats to prove it—over 90% positive ratings). We are proud to be a part of the culture at companies like Netflix, Zendesk, and Zoom and are in an exciting phase of growth. We recently raised a Series A led by top-tier firm Felicis, and now we’re expanding our product offerings and platform functionality. It’s a great time to join our team!

How we work:

We’re a rapidly growing team of people who value diversity in all its forms. We love adding new perspectives and appreciate those who ask questions that help us challenge assumptions, explore new directions, and improve what we’ve already built. We believe it’s our responsibility to create an environment in which every person can bring their full, authentic selves to work. We push each other to be our best and do our training proud. We love feedback, practice empathy, and embrace humor. Seriously, we’re not shy about puns. If you brought us to a picnic, we’d be compli-ants. If we were shoes in London, we’d be trainers. If we were--you get it. Humor is welcome here.  

Who we’re looking for:

Ethena is looking for a Digital Designer to join our small but mighty team, actively pursuing design maturity across all platforms of our brand executions. Supported by a powerhouse engineering team and growing marketing team, the Design Team has an impact across nearly every department, including Product Design, Commercial, Content, and Customer Success. As the company expands into new verticals, opportunities exist to support product design, work with illustrators, and support marketing launches through social media and events.

We are based in Brooklyn, but welcome remote candidates who are able to work EST hours.

What you’ll do:

• Support the Commercial team with visual assets for use across external-facing platforms, including website design, editorial and social media

• Create visual assets for use by Commercial team, including proposal decks, sell sheets, product mock-ups, and branded content exploration

• Develop creative marketing campaigns, working in tandem with our growing marketing team to build engaging campaigns across web, social, email and events (in-person and online)

• Support the Design team with product design input, maintaining an organized library of assets, and other responsibilities needed for a rapidly growing design team straddling product and commercial

• Report directly to the Art Director and work closely with the VP of Design

What makes a great candidate:

• Exceptional skill in the formal aspects of design, including typography, composition, form, hierarchy, proportion and color

• Excellent organizational skills with an ability to prioritize on the fly and operate autonomously

• Experience with Google Slides, Adobe Creative Suite, and Figma or Sketch

• An entrepreneurial mindset - we’re an early stage startup so we’re not just looking for someone to run a playbook. We want you to help build it.

• A “roll up your sleeves” mentality and comfort with ambiguity

• Passion for what we’re building here at Ethena

• An impeccable sense of humor

Valued but not required:

• Experience with Adobe After Effects or Premiere

• Experience with email campaigns

• Copywriting skills

Submissions without a resumé + portfolio of relevant work will not be considered
