Brand Designer

Cursor is building the future of coding. Our AI code editor and agents are just the beginning – we're solving the hardest engineering and design problems in AI automating coding, and making these capabilities accessible to everyone.

About the role

We're looking for a brand designer who can help define and evolve Cursor's visual identity as we scale to a universal platform for building software.

• Design for multiple audiences – from hardcore developers to designers exploring code for the first time

• Create visual systems that scale across digital and physical mediums

• Craft compelling narratives through design that communicate our vision for the future of software creation

• Collaborate with product designers to ensure brand consistency across the user experience, and to shape product narratives

• Ship fast, iterate constantly. Let the brand evolve as the product and company grow

You might be a fit if

• You have a strong portfolio demonstrating brand work that's both beautiful and strategic

• You've built or evolved brands for technical products or developer-focused companies

• You think in systems and can create flexible design languages that work across contexts

• You excel in motion, typography, illustration, and other brand disciplines

• You can articulate design decisions and rally teams around a creative vision

• You get energized by ambitious missions and want to build a brand that inspires people

About

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering.

Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truthseeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

We're in-person with cozy offices in North Beach, San Francisco and Manhattan, New York, replete with well-stocked libraries.
