Visual Designer

Intelligence for music learning. Tonic Notes records the music lesson and turns it into a summary, a practice plan built around the student, and audio clips of every passage worked on. It's the only music-first AI notetaker: fluent in playing, not just speech. Because the most important moments cannot be captured in words. The role Music hands a designer unusually rich material: sound, notation, practice, performance, the relationship between a teacher and a student. You'll decide how all of it looks and feels, everywhere Tonic appears: the app, the web, the brand, the campaigns, the moments partners put their names next to. This is a senior role with founding-team scope. You'll set the visual bar and build the system that holds it, make the calls that become the company's taste, and work directly with the founders. The category is weeks old and its visual language is unclaimed. You claim it. Shape the product Own new surfaces end to end, from the practice tools students live in to the page a shared lesson lands on (which is also where many people meet Tonic first) Solve the central design problem: a lesson is an hour of sound and feeling, and you decide what it looks like when it becomes an object on a screen Build the brand Carry one identity across the site, campaigns, and artist and institution moments, and keep it whole under pressure Art-direct the assets teachers and collaborators put their reputations next to Set the system Grow a design system that makes each new surface cheaper to build and impossible to make ugly Raise the bar for everyone: critique, standards, and the taste calls nobody else can make The first six months Core product surfaces share one coherent visual language A design system in place that makes new surfaces faster to build Brand consistent across the site, campaigns, and partner moments Leading visual decisions across the company: critique, standards, direction Who thrives here 5+ years designing digital products, with a portfolio showing range at shipping speed: product UI and brand, sketch to screen Has set visual direction somewhere real and held it as the company grew Systems thinking; stronger taste. Comfortable being the bar Uses modern AI tools as a force multiplier without letting them flatten the work Bonus: you play an instrument, or wish you still did The team We're a lean team of experienced engineers, music experts, and lifelong learners, with a track record of building products loved by billions of people around the world.
