Looking for a position that makes you smile?
We’re seeking a Sr. Brand Designer to join our growing team.
The Sr. Brand Designer builds the template systems and automation that let teams and non-designers produce on-brand marketing without custom design support. This includes locked, self-service templates within the enterprise digital asset management (DAM) platforms, along with enterprise-level automation that versions creative across multiple brands and locations.
How you’ll make us better:
- Design modular, locked templates for direct mail, paid media, social, email, and in-office assets
- Configure editable zones while keeping brand-controlled elements locked
- Define consistent standards for layout, typography, imagery, and content
- Build variable-data and smart-field templates that populate location, offer, and personalization details at scale
- Build and maintain self-service templates in a DAM platform with element locking, smart fields, user roles, and permissions
- Structure templates to flex across multiple brands (logo, name, color, contact info) without compromising system integrity
- Organize and govern templates through standardized naming, tagging, versioning, permissions, and retirement
- Lead the conversion of the existing asset library into structured templates with smart fields and editable zones while preserving brand fidelity
- Ensure templates work across formats and channels and meet production specifications
- Create print-ready direct mail templates that meet bleed, CMYK, resolution, variable-data, and mailing requirements
- Develop presized asset sets that reduce resizing and reformatting
- Test editable templates before rollout to ensure reliable field use
- Document template requirements and train non-designers to use the DAM independently
- Partner with the Digital Asset Manager to keep templates findable and properly tagged following DAM standards for naming, versioning, permissions and retirement
- Partner with the Project Manager to plan and prioritize template projects, owning and tracking tasks, and provide status updates
- Align templates with team intake and workflow systems
- Partner with Brand Strategy to align templates with approved messaging and positioning
- Track template usage, adoption, and refine systems based on data and end-user feedback
- Evolve templates as needed to support new campaigns, programs, and business needs
- This role requires regular use of approved AI tools to perform assigned tasks more efficiently and effectively
Your special skills:
- Strong understanding of layout systems, hierarchy, and consistency
- Strong oral and written communication skills
- Strong problem-solving skills and organizational skills
Prerequisites for success:
- High School diploma required
- Six (6) years of design experience with a systems or template-driven portfolio required; franchise, multi-brand, or multi-location experience preferred
- Experience building self-service templates in Marq, Bynder, or comparable enterprise brand-templating / DAM platforms required
- Experience with variable data, smart fields, or data-merge template automation required
- Advanced knowledge of print production, including direct mail
- Advanced knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite; Canva a plus
We saved the best for last.
In exchange for the dynamic contribution you’ll bring to our team, we offer:
- Competitive salary
- Medical, dental, vision and life insurance
- Short and long-term disability coverage
- 401(k) plan
- 3 weeks paid time off in your first year + paid holidays
- Discounts on braces and clear aligners for you and your family members

Senior Designer Jobs in Austin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior designer job in Austin?
Target Austin's dominant hiring sectors: enterprise software, interactive media, and consumer tech companies clustered in the Domain and downtown. Agencies along East Sixth and South Congress also run steady senior designer searches. A portfolio showing end-to-end product or brand work tailored to digital audiences gives you the clearest edge here, where most employers expect candidates who can lead a design system from brief to launch.
Which companies hire senior designers in Austin?
Austin senior designer roles are posted by Amazon, CesiumAstro, and Icon and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Austin's hiring mix tilts heavily toward in-house design teams at growth-stage tech companies and regional brands rather than large traditional agencies.
Are there remote senior designer jobs in Austin?
Yes, especially for roles centered on digital product, UX, and visual systems work, which travel well remotely. About 68% of senior designer openings tied to Austin are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how widely Austin tech employers have adopted flexible arrangements. Brand and campaign design roles tied to local shoots or in-person stakeholder reviews tend to stay hybrid or on-site.
How can I get a senior designer job in Austin with little or no experience?
The most realistic path is landing a mid-level or associate designer role at one of Austin's many growth-stage startups, which often promote quickly when design leadership is thin. Austin's tech accelerator ecosystem and boutique agencies in the Mueller and Rainey Street areas regularly hire junior designers and develop them into senior roles. Building a public portfolio with Austin-relevant brand or product work and contributing to local design meetups helps employers take notice.
Which industries hire the most senior designers in Austin?
Most senior designer openings in Austin sit in Retail, Staffing & Recruiting, and Technology & Software, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Austin's position as a major tech hub and growing media market means those sectors generate the highest sustained demand for experienced design talent year-round.
