Preply is a unicorn edtech platform (Series D, $150M) that connects 100,000+ tutors teaching 90+ languages to learners in 180 countries. The company is transforming education through human-led, AI-enhanced learning experiences.
You will be a Senior Visual Designer on the Brand Creative team, serving as a key bridge between Brand and Product. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role where you'll shape how Preply's brand comes to life within the product experience.
Key responsibilities:
- Participate in squad planning and discovery sessions to identify brand and visual storytelling opportunities from project inception
- Independently lead visual work on complex product initiatives, exploring concepts and delivering polished outcomes
- Develop solutions across photography, illustration, 3D imagery, iconography, typography, and motion
- Build trusted relationships across product squads, explain design recommendations, and resolve competing priorities through thoughtful judgment
- Turn recurring design challenges into reusable assets, principles, and practical examples
- Maintain visibility across squad roadmaps, surface dependencies, and align priorities with Brand and Product leadership
- Provide constructive feedback to other designers and collaborate with Engineers through implementation
- Scale creative solutions through AI by developing reusable prompts, workflows, and examples that enable Product Designers to generate and adapt imagery within visual guidelines
You'll work closely with Product Designers, Product Managers, and Engineers across multiple squads, helping evolve Preply's visual language based on the needs of both Brand and Product teams.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 6+ years of experience in visual, brand, or digital design, with a portfolio demonstrating strong conceptual thinking and visual craft
- At least 2 years working directly with digital product teams, collaborating with Product Designers, PMs, and Engineers from discovery through implementation
- Experience in a consumer-facing technology company, digital platform, or subscription business, ideally supporting multiple squads (agency experience equally relevant if it includes sustained collaboration with product teams and shipped digital experiences)
- Examples of brand design applied within live products (onboarding, feature introductions, subscription journeys, progress and achievement experiences) with clear ownership of visual direction
- Strong portfolio demonstrating senior-level visual craft, conceptual thinking, and brand design applied to digital products
- Experience independently leading projects from ambiguous briefs through implementation with clear reasoning
- Excellent foundations in typography, composition, color, and visual storytelling, supported by understanding of usability and accessibility
- Ability to influence cross-functional partners, navigate feedback, and build alignment around creative direction
- Strong Figma skills and experience creating reusable design assets and guidance
- Sound judgment in balancing quality, scope, and timelines across multiple initiatives
- Experience building reusable visual systems and AI workflows, including confident image generation, refinement of outputs, and prompts or guidance that enable other designers to produce consistent work
- Plus: experience with illustration, motion, or generating imagery
