Senior Visual Designer (Remote)

Join to apply for the Senior Visual Designer (Remote) role at Xata.io

Xata is the modern Postgres platform that helps engineering teams ship faster with instant database branches, anonymized production‑like data, and zero‑downtime schema changes. We connect directly to your existing Postgres, whether it’s RDS, Aurora, CloudSQL, Azure Database, or self‑hosted and bring a realistic, production‑like development workflow to every pull request.

We’re a Series A, fully remote team across Europe and the US (around 25 people). Our customers use Xata to eliminate staging pain, speed up development, and make Postgres scalable for AI‑era applications.

Responsibilities

• Lead the evolution of Xata’s visual brand system, including guidelines for illustrations, iconography, typography, and colour usage
• Design marketing assets across channels: website visuals, landing pages, blog illustrations, launch graphics, social media assets, and presentations
• Create swag and physical assets (t-shirts, stickers, conference materials) that developers actually want to wear
• Work closely with marketing and product to support product launches, announcements, and campaigns
• Contribute to the public website, collaborating with frontend engineers and our design engineer to ensure designs translate well into production
• Help communicate complex technical concepts visually, especially for developer‑focused audiences

Tools & Technologies

• Figma (primary design tool)
• Whimsical
• Notion
• GitHub
• Modern web stacks (Next.js, Tailwind) – familiarity is a plus, not a requirement
• AI‑assisted design tools (we’re open to experimentation)

Our team is diverse, with over 40% women, and Xata is female‑founded with an all‑female board of directors.
