Job description

About the role

We're looking for an exceptional brand designer who can help define and evolve Cursor's visual identity as we scale to a universal platform for building software. As we grow, we're building a brand studio focused on setting a high bar for creative excellence in a fast-moving company where brand and design play a meaningful role. This is a unique opportunity to help shape the future of the Cursor brand and contribute to a design function that matches the ambition of our mission.

What you'll do

  • Collaborate with product designers to ensure brand consistency across the user experience
  • Collaborate with external partners and provide clear creative feedback
  • Ship fast, iterate constantly. Let the brand evolve as the product and company grow

    • You may be a fit if

  • You have a portfolio demonstrating strong visual, typographic, and strategic thinking across formats — from digital campaigns to brand systems and events
  • You've built or evolved brands for technical products, developer-focused companies, or culturally defining brands
  • You have a proven track record working in fast-paced, high-growth companies with speed, ambiguity, and complexity
  • You think in systems and can translate complex concepts into scalable, accessible design
  • You have strong art direction skills, with the ability to set a clear creative bar and guide external creative partners
  • You can articulate design decisions and rally teams around a creative vision
  • You can contribute to brand voice and messaging when needed
  • You're ambitious, opinionated, and comfortable taking ownership to push work forward
  • [Nice to have] Experience working at both fast-paced startups and agencies
  • [Nice to have] Background in web design, motion design, 3D or illustration
