Our bots are lifelike, social creatures that can interact wherever people are online-across voice, video, and text. Create yourself, imagine someone new, or choose from thousands of characters to share infinitely scalable, personalized content and seamless group chat.\nIf you’re excited about how AI can shape creativity and social interaction, come help us build what’s next.\nAbout the Role:\n Cantina is looking for a Senior Visual Designer with serious graphic design chops and strong art direction instincts to shape how Cantina looks. You’ll be the keeper of the brand across every surface, from the website and campaigns to launch films, title treatments, in-app announcements, and printed posters.\nYou’ll develop a visual concept, get others excited about it, and execute the details yourself, with great typography, bold composition, and images that make you stop.\nWe’re open to a range of backgrounds. You might be a graphic and brand designer who also animates, or a motion designer and video editor with a strong design eye. Either way, great design comes first.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nOwn and evolve our visual identity across web, social, print, campaigns, and in-app product marketing surfaces.\n\nLead art direction for campaigns, product launches, and branded content, developing concepts, mood boards, visual references, and design treatments that give the work a clear direction.\n\nShape the look of launch films, trailers, and feature videos for our biggest product moments, designing and animating where it fits your strengths.\n\nMake exceptional graphic design: campaign identities, key art, posters, title treatments, layouts, social assets, and launch materials with strong typography and a distinctive visual language.\n\nBuild and maintain our brand system across typography, color, composition, imagery, iconography, and motion, giving a growing creative team the tools and direction to make consistently great work.\n\nArt direct AI-generated imagery and video, making deliberate choices about style, lighting, color, framing, and composition, then refining and finishing the assets.\n\nWork alongside a team of video editors, motion designers, illustrators, and AI filmmakers, giving specific visual feedback and staying involved through final execution.\n\nDesign websites, landing pages, and in-app marketing surfaces that bring the brand to life and make the product easy to understand.\n\nCreate motion graphics, animated typography, and transitions that extend the visual identity into video.\n\nStay hands-on: explore different directions, build the assets, sweat the spacing, and get the work out into the world.\n\nWhat You’ll Bring:\nA portfolio (and a reel, if you have one) grounded in graphic design and brand identity, with strong examples of art direction across campaigns and multiple mediums.\n\nExceptional typography, layout, composition, color, and image-making skills. You can make a single poster feel special and carry that same idea across an entire campaign.\n\nExperience taking a loose brief and turning it into a compelling visual concept, then directing and executing the work through production.\n\nGreat taste and the ability to explain your decisions. You know when a design needs more energy, more restraint, or a completely different idea.\n\nStrong web design skills and experience translating a brand into responsive digital experiences.\n\nProficiency in Figma, Photoshop, and Illustrator. Experience with motion and video tools like After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or AI video tools is a plus.\n\nExperience incorporating generative AI into your creative process, with the craft to art direct, composite, retouch, and finish the output.\n\nThe ability to ship launch assets on aggressive timelines, iterate quickly on feedback and keep quality high when the deadline moves.\n\nNice to have: Hands-on motion design and motion graphics experience, especially animated typography, brand animation, and video graphics.\n\nCompensation:\nThe anticipated annual base salary range for this role is between $200,000-$260,000. When determining compensation, a number of factors will be considered, including skills, experience, job scope, location, and competitive compensation market data.\nBenefits:\nCompetitive salary and generous company equity\n\nMedical, dental, and vision insurance - 99.99% of premiums covered by Cantina\n\n42 days of paid time off, including:\n15 PTO days\n\n10 sick days\n\n15 company holidays\n\n2 floating holidays\n\nGenerous parental leave & fertility support\n\n401(k) retirement savings plan\n\nLifestyle spending account - $500/month to use however you’d like\n\nComplimentary lunch and snacks for in-office employees\n\nOne Medical membership, and more!","description_format":"text","description_chars":4807,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Parental leave","Retirement plans","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["LLM & Generative AI","Generative Video","Multimodal AI","Social Networks"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-31T01:29:15Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 3","filings_12m":3,"filings_prev_12m":10,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":202500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":74,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":260000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cantina-sr-visual-designer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cantina-sr-visual-designer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T07:12:20Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":10620,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6569},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6569"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcantina-sr-visual-designer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcantina-sr-visual-designer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcantina-sr-visual-designer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cantina-sr-visual-designer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcantina-sr-visual-designer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3557139}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"cantina.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3557139},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
