- Be an IC that can also steward designers through large-scale design projects

Hybrid work at Stripe
This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).
In-office expectations
Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.
Working remotely at Stripe
A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live.
Pay and benefits
The annual US base salary range for this role is $210,400 - $315,600.

Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.
Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Brand Designer
Align your portfolio to U.S. specialty occupation standards
Brand design roles must meet the DOL's specialty occupation criteria, meaning the job must require a specific bachelor's degree. Frame your portfolio around strategic brand systems and design thinking, not just execution, to reinforce the degree-level nature of your work.
Target employers with in-house brand teams
Agencies and startups sometimes classify brand designers as generalists, which can complicate E-3 visa eligibility. In-house brand teams at established companies are more likely to write job descriptions that explicitly require a bachelor's degree in a design discipline.
Get your Australian credentials formally evaluated
A three-year Australian bachelor's degree is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree for E-3 purposes, but your employer may request a formal credential evaluation. Arrange this through a NACES-member evaluator before your offer stage to avoid delays.
Confirm the employer will file an LCA before signing
The LCA is the employer's responsibility and must be certified by the DOL before you can apply at the consulate. Ask your hiring manager directly whether their HR or legal team has filed LCAs before, since many design studios have no prior E-3 experience.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the full process
Once you have an offer, Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service handles your LCA preparation, visa paperwork, and consulate appointment prep end-to-end, so neither you nor your employer needs prior E-3 experience to get it right.
Prepare for consulate questions about your degree and role alignment
Consular officers will assess whether your specific degree field connects directly to the brand designer role on offer. Prepare a concise explanation of how your design education applies to the responsibilities in your offer letter, especially if your degree title differs from the job title.
E-3 Visa Brand Designer: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Brand Designer jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Search Migrate Mate to filter Brand Designer roles by employers with active E-3 visa sponsorship history. Most general job boards don't surface sponsorship status, so you can spend weeks applying to roles where the employer has never filed an LCA. Migrate Mate surfaces employers already familiar with the E-3 process, which significantly shortens the path from application to offer.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Brand Designer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the role requires a bachelor's degree in a specific design-related field such as graphic design, visual communication, or a closely related discipline. The requirement must be genuine, not just preferred. Roles that accept any degree, or where no degree is technically required, won't meet the specialty occupation standard. How the employer writes the job description matters significantly here.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Brand Designers?
The E-3 is available exclusively to Australian citizens and has no lottery, no annual cap, and renews every two years indefinitely. The H-1B visa requires entering a lottery with roughly a 25% selection rate and can take years to secure. For an Australian brand designer with a qualifying job offer, the E-3 is a far more direct and predictable path than the H-1B.
What happens to my E-3 status if I want to change employers or go freelance?
Your E-3 is tied to a specific employer and a specific role. If you change jobs, your new employer must file a fresh LCA and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp before re-entering the U.S. Freelancing or contracting on the side while on E-3 status isn't permitted without separate authorization. Plan any employer transitions carefully to avoid a gap in your work authorization.
