Your role in the team
- You own Blackwave's visual identity end-to-end. From sales decks and investor materials to social media, employer branding, trade shows, and product communication, you transform complex aerospace technology into clear, compelling design that customers, candidates, and investors understand at first glance.
- As the company's primary design expert, you create systems, templates, and assets that enable others to communicate consistently without relying on design support for every request.
- Blackwave is building the next generation of Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPVs) for the aerospace industry. As we scale, our brand must scale with us.
- Great engineering alone is not enough. Customers need to understand it. Candidates need to be excited by it. Investors need to believe in it.
- This role exists to make Blackwave instantly recognizable and easy to choose. You turn complex pressure-vessel technology into a visual language that supports growth across sales, hiring, product communication, and company visibility.
- You don't just design assets. You build the visual system that shapes how Blackwave is perceived.
- You ensure:
- Every customer-facing asset follows a clear and consistent visual identity.
- Sales and investor teams can communicate professionally without depending on design support for every update.
- Our brand guidelines remain practical, scalable, and actively used.
- Technical aerospace content becomes easy to understand through strong visual communication.
- Our digital presence consistently reflects the quality of our products and ambitions.
- Own and evolve our visual identity across all touchpoints. Maintain brand guidelines, develop new components when required, and ensure consistency across teams and channels.
- Redesign and maintain core sales and investor assets including pitch decks, product datasheets, proposal templates, and supporting collateral. Create templates that allow business teams to work efficiently without constant design support.
- Create and maintain visual assets for LinkedIn, our website, recruiting campaigns, and other digital channels while ensuring a consistent visual presence.
- Support trade shows, print production, product communication, signage, and visual production together with external vendors and service providers.
- Transform technical information, diagrams, specifications, and engineering concepts into visuals that can be understood by non-experts without sacrificing accuracy.
