Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Legion Intelligence is a company focused on delivering secure, reliable AI systems to tackle critical challenges. They are seeking a Creative Director to lead the creative function, setting the standard for brand design and overseeing the production of high-priority creative work across various marketing channels.
Responsibilities
- Set the creative bar across brand, web, campaigns, events, social, video, and sales materials, and personally design and produce the highest-priority work. This is a hands-on role first, a player-coach who still makes the work
- Translate complex AI, agent orchestration, edge, and national security concepts into clear, credible visual systems
- Partner with Federal Marketing, Demand Marketing, and Product Marketing on demand generation, ABM, launches, education, and field events
- Build modular campaign systems, landing pages, social assets, email graphics, sales collateral, and executive materials that scale across channels and audiences
- Use frontier models and AI creative tools daily to build repeatable workflows that compound over time, across video, campaign kits, landing pages, social, product visuals, and decks
- Turn Legion’s brand into machine-readable infrastructure: reusable prompts, templates, kits, and playbooks, with human review at the brief and the final gate, plus clear guardrails for AI tooling, IP, and brand safety
- Build and manage a flexible bench of freelance designers, motion and video specialists, and other contractors from the ground up, deploying them for surges and specialty work as demand grows
- Own intake, prioritization, briefs, review rituals, and clear SLAs from brief to first concept to shipped asset
- Partner with the Product team to help set visual design direction that brings the product in line with the Legion brand, raising the baseline polish of apps, Spaces, and features so the product looks as credible as it is capable
- Oversee and produce product and in-product visual support: icons, diagrams, app imagery, feature visuals, and lightweight in-product creative
- Run creative as a measurable loop, from brief to shipped asset to performance read to the next iteration, in close partnership with Demand Marketing and Marketing Operations
- Use performance signals to sharpen concepts, formats, and priorities, without letting short-term optimization erode brand quality
Skills
- 8+ years in creative, brand design, art direction, or creative services, in high-growth technology, AI, B2B SaaS, or similarly complex and technical markets, with real hands-on production and not just oversight
- A portfolio that shows range and craft across brand, campaign, web, social, video, and product or technical storytelling, with both concept and execution
- Daily, advanced use of AI in the creative process: frontier models such as Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, and AI design, image, and video tools such as Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, Runway, Google Veo, Sora, and ElevenLabs. You use AI to raise both speed and quality, and you turn what works into reusable systems others can run, from prompts and templates to kits and workflows
- Creative coding and prototyping. You can turn a concept into a working prototype using design-to-code and AI tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Figma Make, v0 by Vercel
- A track record of turning brand guidelines into systems that others can run: reusable prompts, templates, kits, or workflows
- Experience building, hiring, and managing a freelance or contractor bench, not just briefing existing vendors. You have stood up and run flexible creative capacity and scaled it as demand moved
- Hands-on motion and video production. You can storyboard, edit, and ship demo clips, launch videos, social cuts, and event loops, with tools such as Premiere, After Effects, Descript, and AI-assisted video
- Product and in-product visual support. You can produce icons, diagrams, app imagery, feature visuals, and lightweight in-product creative, and partner closely with Product Design
- Strong command of Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite, with the range to pick the right tool for the job
- Strong written and verbal communication and a high-ownership, low-ego, fast-moving style. You build the best available draft and invite reaction rather than waiting for perfect information
- A link to your online portfolio or a PDF upload of your work samples is required to be considered for this role
- Experience in defense, national security, intelligence, national labs, critical infrastructure, public sector, or other regulated, high-consequence industries
- Experience with ABM, demand generation, product launches, or full-funnel B2B campaigns
- Experience with lightweight web tools such as Webflow or Framer
- Experience building AI brand kits or machine-readable brand guidance that other people adopted
Benefits
- Legion is a remote-first company
