Bonfiire are hiring a

Founding Designer

Why We Exist

For the last few years, sales and GTM teams have been increasingly struggling with outbound and content marketing. In a world where anyone can send millions of personalized AI emails in one click, the teams that are winning right now are going deeper with their relationships. Were building the platform for going deeper. Were on the verge of launching a new product which is the most differentiated experience for booking intimate in-person experiences that close business. We are leveraging hundreds of customers and signed distribution deals to accelerate our path to market leadership. Were hiring a founding designer to make it all inevitable.

Who Were Looking For

Were looking for a Founding Designer who will own the visual and experiential identity of this company. Your zone of brilliance is translating big ideas into beautiful, fluid, unforgettable product experiences — across every surface, from web app and eventually to mobile app, voice, and vision. You know how to run the train while you lay down the train tracks. Youre designed for speed (of shipping, learning, iterating, and delivering), hard work, and curiosity. This is an ownership role where you will define what a category-defining product looks and feels like and the outcomes that validate it all.

What Youll Own

• The surfaces: Translate our brand into beautifully composed apps, decks, landing pages, ads, and every other touchpoint. You own how our new product looks in the world.
• Product UI/UX: Deliver elevated, animated, fluid experiences that feel unlike anything else in this category. Youre designing the product you wish you could use every day.
• Design-to-production: Work directly with engineers to ensure your vision reaches users the way you imagined.
• Speed with taste: Move fast, make smart tradeoffs, and ship across multiple surfaces simultaneously.

Abilities
You are an artist and a keen businessperson at the same time. Your bar of excellence is high and youre able to both strategize and deliver great design. You love interviewing stakeholders and validating ideas but you also make hard calls that defy all the data.

Skills
Youve done this before — at least some version of it. You know the tools. Youre already using AI to go faster. Your portfolio makes people stop scrolling.
