Principal Product & Brand Designer

At Cortea, design earns trust in an industry built on it. You'll own roughly 70% product design and 30% brand work—taking core flows to the next level while owning the website, marketing visuals, newsletter, and event assets that appear in boardrooms and customer inboxes. You'll find novel patterns for problems that haven't existed in software before and shape how Cortea looks and feels to the outside world.

• Work directly with founders, engineers, and customers to turn audit flows into intuitive, delightful interfaces
• Own brand designs and visuals across website, marketing, and sales materials
• Evolve visual identity and design system
• Take increasing ownership of brand direction and content and event assets
• Help shape product vision, roadmap, and user experience standards
• Run usability tests, build user feedback loops, and bring a systems mindset to design decisions

What you'll need

• Product design experience in B2B / SaaS, ideally in fast-moving startups
• Think in experiences, not screens, with taste you can defend

• Can hold complexity without losing clarity—turn configuration-heavy, expert workflows into clear systems
• Use AI without sacrificing quality and work well in ambiguity without handholding
