Edison Scientific is building AI scientist agents to accelerate scientific discovery and drug development. The company is run by scientists and engineers from leading institutions across biology, physics, chemistry, and AI.
You'll own the day-to-day creative execution that brings Edison's brand to life. This is a highly versatile design role spanning brand identity, marketing, recruiting, events, executive communications, and company storytelling. You'll transform high-level concepts into polished final deliverables—from event experiences and conference collateral to investor presentations, recruiting materials, and cohesive brand systems. Your work will help define and maintain a visual identity that feels distinctly Edison.
As the company scales, you'll have opportunities to contribute to product design initiatives. While extensive product design experience isn't required on day one, curiosity and enthusiasm for growing in that direction matter given the broad scope of design at a fast-growing startup.
You'll work closely with operations, product, and leadership, based in San Francisco.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own design execution across brand, events, recruiting, marketing, and executive communications
- Create event collateral, conference experiences, signage, presentations, digital assets, recruiting materials, and marketing content that elevate the Edison brand
- Maintain and evolve Edison's sophisticated, minimal visual identity across every touchpoint
- Develop scalable templates, systems, and assets that enable consistent, efficient design output
- Use AI to move faster, not to replace judgment
- Pick up product design work with the Platform team as bandwidth allows
Required Qualifications:
- Typically 3–7 years of professional design experience with a portfolio demonstrating range: brand identity, event/exhibit design, marketing collateral, and decks
- Expert-level Figma and Adobe Creative Suite skills
- A strong, defensible point of view on what "good" looks like, paired with tactful editing discipline
- Ability to strip a design down to its essential elements rather than layering more on
- Comfort working fast and independently against ambiguous, time-sensitive requests
Preferred Qualifications:
- Motion or 3D experience (After Effects, Blender, or Cinema 4D)
- Prior experience designing in-house for a fast-moving startup, where you owned output end to end
- Curiosity about product design and/or early exposure to it
- Genuine interest in Edison's mission and the life sciences space
