About the role

ABOUT GLOW

Glow is on a mission to transform how enterprises proactively protect the modern endpoint with an agentic-first approach. Our platform gives security teams the visibility, context, and autonomous remediation they've never had before — across every endpoint, application, and AI tool in the environment. We move fast, we build things that matter, and we believe security should be a force multiplier for the business, not a bottleneck. Let's Glow.

ABOUT THE ROLE …

We're looking for a Senior Brand Designer to join as the first dedicated brand hire, working directly with our Creative Director to shape how Glow looks, feels, and scales. You won't be inheriting a finished system. You'll help build it, and then help it evolve. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants real ownership and is equally comfortable setting direction and executing the details.

WHAT YOU’LL DO …

  • Own brand design end to end, from concept through execution, across digital and physical touchpoints
  • Help establish Glow's design system, including tokens, components, templates, and guidelines, so the brand holds together as the company grows
  • Contribute to the evolution of Glow's visual identity: typography, color, imagery, illustration, iconography, motion
  • Play a core role in Glow's rebrand, from audit and exploration through rollout
  • Develop campaign and launch-specific graphic languages that flex within the core brand
  • Partner with marketing, product, and leadership to turn briefs into strong visual concepts
  • Use emerging tools, including AI, to prototype, iterate, and improve how we work
  • Present your thinking clearly and contribute to critique and creative direction

WHAT YOU’LL BRING …

  • 5+ years of brand or visual design experience, in-house or agency
  • A portfolio showing strong craft, typography, and conceptual range
  • Hands-on experience building or scaling a design system, in Figma or similar
  • Direct experience on a rebrand or major brand evolution
  • A forward-looking point of view on where brand and design are headed
  • Comfort being the first or one of the only designers, with high autonomy and little hand-holding
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative, low-ego working style

EVEN BETTER IF YOU ALSO BRING …

  • Motion or video experience
  • Experience at a high-growth startup, ideally in tech or security
  • Familiarity with working alongside product design or front-end teams

At Glow, we believe our greatest strength is our people. We're committed to building an inclusive workplace where every team member feels welcomed, respected, and empowered to do their best work. We know that diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives make us stronger as a company and better partners to our customers.

Glow is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an environment free from discrimination and harassment. We make all employment decisions without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
