Brand Design Lead

Nash powers the logistics infrastructure behind some of the most recognizable brands in commerce including Walmart Urban Outfitters and 7-Eleven along with platforms like Shopify and Toast.

As we scale our brand needs to scale with us.

We're hiring our first dedicated Brand Designer to craft shape and build the visual identity of the platform that is becoming foundational to modern commerce.

The Role We are right in the middle of defining and rolling out a new Nash brand.

Strategy visual language motion system photography direction the wordmark the website the pitch the booth the apparel: all of it is being built right now.

This is a rare moment to author a brand from close to zero and watch it become the visual identity of a category.

You'll report directly to our Chief Growth Officer (who spent their career building and leading marketing growth and product organizations at companies like Twilio Plaid and Salesforce).

You'll work alongside our CEO our CTO and a small senior fast-moving cross-functional group across product engineering and growth.

The bar for taste craft and strategic thinking on this team is high and the trajectory for someone strong in this seat is significant.

How We Work: A.I.-Native By Default Brand design at Nash is A.I.-native.

We are looking for a designer who has fundamentally rewired how they work around A.I. not a designer who occasionally uses ChatGPT for copy or the occasional inspo image.

A designer who reaches for Claude Cursor Figma Make Midjourney and Runway as instinctively as they reach for the pen tool.

Whose entire workflow is built around using A.I. to get to better outcomes faster.

The reason is straightforward: the speed and surface area of what one designer can ship has changed by an order of magnitude in the last eighteen months.

We want someone who feels that in their bones and uses it to compound their craft not replace it.

Don't get us wrong...we deeply value the soul the personality the whimsy...the magic that can only come from a real designer.

This is not an A.I. slop-house!

But we need to pair the magic of the human touch with the pace and velocity that A.I. tools bring.

In practice this looks like going from a verbal idea to a working interactive prototype the same afternoon generating ten directions for a campaign before lunch and using your own taste to pick the one worth refining prototyping a marketing site section in code with Claude or Cursor and handing a working artifact to engineering instead of a static comp and treating prompt craft model choice and tool-chaining as part of your design practice.

If your reaction to a new A.I. tool is curiosity and a Saturday afternoon experiment you'll fit here.

If you believe that A.I. will never replace ... then you probably won't.

What You'll Do - Translate Define and Evolve the new Nash brand strategy into a complete living visual system: identity applications motion principles photography direction illustration style typography in use - Design and build the marketing site in Figma and Webflow; own landing pages campaign pages product launch moments and the visual story we tell at events like NRF Manifest and Shoptalk - Bring the Nash visual language to life through motion: site interactions product reveals social keynote and trade show - Own the visual layer of the demand engine: pitch decks one-pagers customer-facing PDFs partner materials the work that helps close deals - Prototype quickly using A.I. tools (Claude Cursor Figma Make Runway Midjourney) to compress the loop from idea to artifact - Ensure the final touch of any design is always human authentic and has soul.

While we use A.I. to prototype we care about that hard to define sparkle that comes from something hand crafted. - Build installations and real-world experiences that are fascinatingly real - in a world full of A.I. slop our brand leans into very tangible real world things. - Set the bar for craft across the company; teach the rest of the team how to use A.I. tools to get there faster without losing taste - Partner with engineering to ship expressions of the brand surfaces in product too - Contribute to the brand system itself: patterns components prompts and rituals that scale how Nash shows up everywhere Requirements - 6+ years experience in brand or product design with shipped work that demonstrates strong craft across identity web motion and campaign - Has owned a brand or a major brand evolution at a high-growth technology company and can talk about the decisions and tradeoffs behind it - Active daily use of LLMs (we use Claude Code / Claude Cowork and A.I. prototyping tools (e.g.

Replit) as a core part of your design workflow - Fluent in Figma and Webflow; comfortable in After Effects and Illustrator; curious about whatever ships next - Systems thinker who can hold the whole brand in their head while obsessing over the kerning of a single headline - Strong opinions communicated clearly updated quickly when the evidence changes - Comfortable working alongside engineers and operators on things that have to actually function in the real world - Bonus: built a marketing site end to end in Webflow at production scale; shipped motion work that lived on a homepage or a keynote; prior experience designing for B2B platforms infrastructure or logistics; released your own side project using A.I. prototyping tools How to Apply Send us your portfolio a short note on the brand work you're proudest of and why and one example of how A.I. has changed the way you design.

If you'd rather skip the cover letter and send a Replit prototype a Loom or a Figma file that is very much encouraged.

More about Nash http://Nash.AI NASH IS THE PLATFORM THAT POWERS MODERN LOGISTICS.

Commerce has inverted.

For decades customers came to where products and services were.

Now products and services come to them on their terms in real time.

That shift has turned every company into a logistics company even though almost none of them were built to be one.

Couriers fleets gig workers parcel carriers in-store labor and increasingly autonomous systems all have to be coordinated in real time against tighter windows and rising expectations with hard-fought customer trust on the line.

Nash unifies decisioning execution and capacity into a single programmable platform.

Real-time AI-native intelligence determines what should happen operational control executes it and the platform dynamically orchestrates capacity from any source: a company's own fleets partners or the Nash delivery network.

Whether a job involves a courier a gig driver an internal fleet a store employee a technician or an autonomous vehicle Nash selects the right resource and manages execution through completion.

We power delivery and logistics for some of the most recognizable brands in commerce including Walmart Urban Outfitters 7-Eleven and Woolworths alongside platforms like Shopify and Toast.

Over the next decade logistics will become as foundational to commerce as payments cloud and connectivity.

Nash is the platform that powers it.

Nash was founded in 2021 by Mahmoud Ghulman (2x Founder MIT) and Aziz Alghunaim (2x Founder 2x YC Ex-Palantir MIT) and is backed by Y Combinator a16z and other top investors.

We are headquartered in San Francisco.
