Edison Scientific is building AI scientist agents to accelerate scientific research and drug development. The company is led by scientists and engineers from top institutions across biology, physics, chemistry, and AI.
We are seeking a Brand Designer to own creative execution across all brand touchpoints. You will be responsible for translating high-level strategic concepts into polished, compelling visual experiences that bring Edison's brand to life.
Your day-to-day work will span brand identity, event design, marketing collateral, recruiting materials, executive communications, and company storytelling. You'll create everything from event experiences and conference collateral to investor presentations, signage, digital assets, and recruiting materials. A key part of the role is maintaining and evolving Edison's sophisticated, minimal visual identity consistently across every touchpoint.
You'll develop scalable design systems, templates, and asset libraries that enable high-quality, efficient design output as the company grows. You'll work with a highly versatile skillset, moving fluidly between disciplines and managing ambiguous, time-sensitive requests independently. The role also includes opportunities to contribute to product design initiatives as bandwidth allows, though extensive product design experience is not required on day one—curiosity and enthusiasm to grow in that direction are what matter.
You'll work closely with operations, product, and leadership teams in San Francisco. This is a full-time, in-office role at a fast-moving, mission-driven startup.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 3–5 years of professional design experience with a portfolio demonstrating range across brand identity, event/exhibit design, marketing collateral, and presentation decks
- Expert-level proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
- Strong, defensible point of view on design quality with tactful editing discipline
- Ability to strip designs down to essential elements rather than over-layering
- Comfort working fast and independently on ambiguous, time-sensitive requests
PREFERRED:
- Motion or 3D experience (After Effects, Blender, Cinema 4D)
- Prior in-house design experience at a fast-moving startup, owning output end-to-end
- Curiosity about product design or early exposure to it
- Genuine interest in Edison's mission and the life sciences space
