Founded by Jacob Fortinsky and Kelechi Ukah, we are the only platform to offer commission-free sports trading. We deliver better pricing, full transparency, and a more efficient market structure for users by eliminating the traditional sportsbook model. Backed by the best - Novig has raised over $100M from some of Silicon Valley’s top investors including Pantera, Forerunner, Lux, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana. ## About the role ##### Lead Brand Designer *$160k – $200k • meaningful equity* ##### About Novig Novig is building America's #1 sports prediction market. Our mission is to financialize and democratize sports trading - taking a closed system run by casinos and turning it into a fair, efficient, two-sided market where the power sits with users. With Novig recently becoming a CFTC-designated market — the fastest designation of its kind in US history— we're bringing the prediction market built for sports fans nationwide. We're backed by some of Silicon Valley's top investors — Pantera, Forerunner, Lux, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana — who have collectively invested over $100M behind this vision. ##### About the Role We’re looking for a Senior Brand Designer to join our small, high-output creative team and help shape how Novig shows up in the world. This is a hands-on IC role with real creative freedom — you’ll work directly with the Head of Creative across brand and product systems, campaign assets, and culture-moving work. This is a rare opportunity to help define a brand still young enough that your fingerprints will be on everything. ##### What you will do - Help solidify Novig's brand identity and evolve it as we scale. Then be its keeper. - Own design concepts with real autonomy, from art direction through execution, across brand, campaign, and marketing work. - Act as a strategic design lead. Partner directly with peers in product, marketing, and leadership. - Look for places Novig's design can level up. If you spot an opportunity worth chasing, pitch it and go make it. - Partner with product design to create graphics (icons, illustrations, promotional assets) and branded moments within the app. - Direct contract designers on overflow work. ##### What you bring - 6-8 years of design experience at top brands, studios, or agencies. - A world- class portfolio that showcases your eye and your craft. - Impeccable taste. Probably the single most important thing. - The confidence to operate with real autonomy. - An obsession with craft that doesn’t discriminate by project size. The smallest deliverable gets the same care as the biggest campaign. - Range across print and digital. Familiarity with product design is a big plus. - Comfort wearing a lot of hats: art director, strategist, designer. Whatever the job needs. - A finger on the pulse of art, culture, and design. - Comfort with ambiguity. Startup pace means sometimes building the plane as we fly it. - Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite; motion design experience is a strong plus. ##### Nice to have - Experience directing contract or freelance designers. - Experience building or evolving a brand identity from the ground up, ideally at a startup or in-house team. - Interest or experience in sports, betting, prediction markets, or other stigmatized/regulated categories. ##### Why work here, in the words of the people who do *“I work with extremely stellar people, I own real systems, and decisions happen fast. No politics, no waiting for needless red tape. If something's broken, I fix it. If I build something good, it ships.”* *“The people! They're smart, thoughtful, fun to work with and passionate about their craft.”* *“I'm having the most fun I've had in my entire career.”* If you want responsibility, trust, and the chance to help build the future of sports prediction markets - take your shot, we’d love to connect. ##### Not for everyone - Our work is tied to live sports - that means potential nights, weekends, and pressure included. - If you need clear swim lanes, a heavy process, or someone to tell you what to do, this won’t be the right environment. ##### Compensation & benefits - $160k – $200k base, benchmarked at top-tier tech companies - Meaningful equity for every employee, regardless of role - 100% health premiums covered - 99% dental & vision covered - 401(k) with 4% company match - HSA + $1,080 annual company contribution - $50/monthly company contribution to employee transit - $27/day lunch stipend when working from our NYC office - $35/day dinner stipend when working from the NYC office after 6:30pm ##### Homebase Union Square, NYC --- Source: Novig's own career page, read by RemJobs.
