About the role

About Metaplane

Metaplane helps companies trust their data.

Our observability platform helps data teams (like Imperfect Foods, Reforge, Drift, Vendr, Appcues, and many more) continuously monitor their data pipelines so they know when things break, what went wrong, and how to fix it — before executives message them.

We’re a Boston-based, remote-friendly company founded by MIT and HubSpot alums. We’re backed by leading investors such as Y Combinator, Flybridge, and notable angel investors, including the founders of HubSpot, Okta, and Lookout.

The Role

We’re focused on building the best data observability platform on the market, but we recognize that bringing data quality to all companies requires more than just building a great product. We also need to educate data teams about how Metaplane can help them deliver data their colleagues can trust. 

As our Senior Marketing Designer , you will be responsible for providing art direction to our team of freelance creatives. From layout design and illustration to animation and multimedia production, you’ll own the visual aspects of our brand presence. You will work closely with our marketing team and founders, but should expect to collaborate with the whole team. 

If you’re an open-minded and collaborative creative leader with a passion for crafting delightful designs that drive business performance, this job is for you.

  • Craft compelling artwork that both empathizes with the customer and pays attention to business goals

  • Build and manage key relationships with creative freelancers and agencies, offering constructive feedback that results in quality execution

  • Develop clear processes and systems that enable us to scale production

Is this you?

  • You have 5-7 years of brand/marketing design experience at a B2B SaaS startup, preferably one that targets a technical audience (bonus points if that audience includes data teams)

  • You’re a player-coach who can roll up their sleeves and get the job done when working against a deadline

  • You have a proven track record of designing delightful experiences that help marketing team’s achieve business goals

  • You have a portfolio that shows conceptual talent, includes visually impactful designs, and demonstrates a commitment to quality execution across a variety of formats and channels

  • You have excellent interpersonal skills and enjoy working with others

  • You’re comfortable using Figma and/or other tools for creative production
