Get Access To All JobsAbout Ramp
Ramp is building the smart infrastructure for finance teams, embedded in the transaction flow of every dollar a business spends. We automate how over $200B in annualized spend flows in and out of 70,000+ companies: authorizing payments, flagging risk, categorizing spend, and closing books.
The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving.
We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome.
The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same.
If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it.
About the Role

This is a leadership individual contributor role. You can take any idea from zero to one. You understand the business fundamentals, the product value, the channels that perform best, and you know where brand design amplifies and improves the work. You understand each XFN’s accountability and outcomes, from product, marketing, GTM, growth and beyond. You can speak their language.
- Set creative direction. Turn business goals and audience insights into clear ideas for the brand.
- Lead company-defining projects. Take campaigns, launches, and other brand experiences from an open question to finished work.
- Set the bar for quality and taste. You are the go-to expert for typography, imagery, layout, and brand design. You are the champion for this standard.
- Build the brand system. Evolve our visual identity over time. We believe in coherency over consistency. We built our brand system to behave like jazz.
- Connect brand and product. Work with product, marketing, and engineering so the company feels coherent wherever people experience it.
- Raise the quality of the team’s work. You are a player-coach that can mentor others and develop a culture of collaboration, creativity, and trust.
- Tell stories to drive alignment. Help partners understand the thinking, agree on a direction, and make practical choices about scope and timing.
What makes you stand out
- You’re already using AI tooling and agents to explore faster, iterate sooner, and develop ideas that you couldn’t before.
- You have both agency and in-house experience.
- You have side hobbies exploring design and creativity. We want to see side projects that show a desire for learning, a student-like mindset, and above all, enthusiasm for where the future is headed.
- You’re humble, thoughtful, and self-aware.
- Your portfolio reveals a story about how you’ve grown as a person, your interests, and curiosities.
- You understand that execution is how good ideas win.
What you’ll bring
- A deep portfolio of brand identities, marketing campaigns, bringing brand into product experiences, and digital applications, with a clear explanation of your contribution.
- Excellent design fundamentals and the ability to carry an idea through to finished work.
- Experience leading complex projects independently and making good decisions when the brief is still taking shape.
- The ability to negotiate, compromise, or understand trade-offs with executives and XFN partners.
- The ability to connect creative choices to the audience, the product, and the business.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Senior Brand Designer
Lead with brand systems, not executions
Sponsors want designers who can build and govern brand identities at scale. Your portfolio should show complete brand systems, including guidelines, typography, and color logic, not just finished ad creative or one-off campaign assets.
Target companies with in-house brand teams
Tech companies, consumer brands, and financial services firms with dedicated in-house design teams are the most consistent H-1B sponsors for senior brand roles. These employers have established immigration infrastructure and regularly file petitions for design hires.
Frame your degree field carefully on your petition
H-1B specialty occupation requires a degree directly related to the role. Graphic design, visual communication, and fine arts degrees qualify. If your degree is in an adjacent field, your attorney will need to document how it connects to brand design specifically.
Build a case for O-1A if your profile is strong
Senior brand designers with industry awards, published work, speaking credits at design conferences, or attribution in major brand launches may qualify for the O-1A extraordinary ability visa, which has no lottery and no annual cap.
Document your leadership scope clearly
The senior designation matters for specialty occupation arguments. Petition support letters should specify that you lead brand strategy decisions, manage junior designers, and own the visual identity system, not just execute tasks directed by others.
Use Migrate Mate to find sponsoring employers
Not every brand design job listing will explicitly state visa sponsorship availability. Migrate Mate filters roles to surface employers actively open to sponsoring, saving you the time of applying to positions that won't move forward with international candidates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Senior Brand Designer role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, in most cases. USCIS has consistently recognized graphic design and brand design roles as specialty occupations when the employer requires a bachelor's degree or higher in graphic design, visual communication, or a closely related field. The key is that the degree requirement must be specific to the discipline, not just any bachelor's degree. Roles where the employer lists design experience as preferred rather than required can create complications at the petition stage.
What degree do I need to qualify for H-1B sponsorship as a Senior Brand Designer?
A bachelor's degree in graphic design, visual communication, fine arts with a design concentration, or a closely related field is the standard requirement. If your degree is in an unrelated discipline but you have extensive professional experience, the 3-for-1 rule may apply, where three years of qualifying work experience substitutes for one year of education. Your immigration attorney will assess whether your background supports the specialty occupation standard.
Are Senior Brand Designer roles commonly sponsored for H-1B visas?
Sponsorship is available but concentrated among specific employer types. Large tech companies, consumer product brands, financial services firms, and major advertising agencies account for the majority of H-1B visa filings for brand design roles. Smaller studios and agencies sponsor far less frequently because they often lack the legal infrastructure to manage petitions. Browsing Senior Brand Designer roles on Migrate Mate surfaces employers who have indicated openness to sponsorship.
Can a Senior Brand Designer qualify for the O-1 visa instead of the H-1B?
Yes. Senior brand designers with a strong professional record may qualify for the O-1A visa, which requires demonstrating extraordinary ability through evidence such as industry awards, significant media coverage of your work, high-profile brand projects with demonstrable impact, or recognition from peers in the design field. The O-1A has no annual cap and no lottery, making it a strong alternative for candidates who have hit the H-1B lottery multiple times without selection.
How does the H-1B lottery affect Senior Brand Designer sponsorship timelines?
Standard H-1B petitions are subject to the annual lottery, with registrations accepted in March for an October 1 start date. If you're not selected, you cannot begin H-1B employment that fiscal year, though cap-exempt employers such as universities and nonprofits are exempt from this constraint. Some candidates use the lottery period to explore O-1 visa eligibility or TN visa status if applicable. Planning your job search around the March registration window significantly improves your chances of a seamless start date.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Senior Brand Designer jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
