Senior Product Illustrator/AI visual creator

We move fast, build things that matter, and foster an ownership-driven culture where you're empowered to shape how organizations work and outpace their competition.

We are seeking a Senior Illustrator & visual designer to join our growing Product Design Foundation Team (Design Systems). This is an opportunity to bring a new look to our current illustration & product visual language and to future monday products' look & feel.

You'll be the person who gives our product a face & a character - empty states, onboarding moments, error screens, celebratory wins, in-app announcements, agents' character concepting - the small visual moments that make complex workflows feel warm & human. You'll be the one building the visual language system at scale & enhancing it with AI, across all monday products used by millions.

You'll work closely with Brand Illustrators, Product Designers, Brand Designers, and Content Designers owning the illustration system end to end - from concept to a scalable AI system the whole company can use.
