Designer

About Story We're a San Francisco creative studio working with the most ambitious technology teams on the planet — the founders and engineers building the future before anyone else can see it. We capture their vision through brand films, product videos, documentary, animation, and content strategy — and we're building the defining agency for deep tech and science. The Role We're looking for a Designer to bring visual craft to everything Story touches — pitch decks, brand systems, thumbnails, social content, and the occasional print or web asset. You'll work closely with our marketing, motion, and client strategy teams to make sure every piece we ship looks like it belongs at an agency operating at Ogilvy scale. What You'll Do Design pitch decks, proposal templates, and internal presentations that are polished and on-brand. Build thumbnails, social graphics, and key art for Story's originals and client deliverables. Contribute to brand identity work — style guides, typography systems, color, layout. Collaborate with motion designers and editors to keep static and motion design cohesive. Manage your own files, versioning, and delivery timelines. Occasionally support client-facing decks and materials under deadline. Key Attributes Strong design sensibility across brand, digital, and social formats. Highly iterative mindset — you refine until it's right. Fast turnarounds without sacrificing quality. Self-motivated, organized, and reliable under real deadlines. Open to feedback; quick to implement notes. Good communicator who works well inside a small, collaborative team. Our Take on AI We believe in real people doing real work. We don't believe in AI replacing human creativity but are open to using it as a tool where it genuinely helps — moodboarding, certain production shortcuts, workflow support. Requirements Strong portfolio spanning brand, social, and presentation design. Proficiency in Figma and/or Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign). Ability to complete a paid design test as part of the hiring process. Based in the SF Bay Area or willing to relocate. Prior professional experience and college degrees are not required — your work speaks for itself.
