About Alien Design
RequirementsWhat We're Looking For
We're a ~20-person design agency working with funded startups and enterprise brands across the US, Europe, and India, think Aditya Birla Capital, HDFC Securities, TVS, alongside high-growth Series A+ startups. We do Webflow websites, product design, and branding, and we've picked up recognition along the way from Awwwards and CSS Design Awards.
We're not looking for someone who uses AI to work faster. We're looking for someone whose taste is good enough that AI becomes a force multiplier instead of a crutch. Someone who can look at ten AI-generated directions and know instantly which one is actually good, then push it further than the tool could on its own.
You'll own visual design across our client work, websites, product UI, and brand identity, while building an AI-augmented workflow that lets you move faster without ever shipping something generic. You'll work closely with our founder and project leads, translating client briefs into visual systems that feel intentional, not templated.
This is a taste-first role. The tools are just tools.
- Lead visual design for client projects, Webflow sites, product interfaces, brand identities, from concept to final delivery
- Use AI tools (Midjourney, Figma AI, ChatGPT/Claude, and whatever's next) as part of your process for ideation, iteration, and speed, while maintaining a distinct, non-generic point of view
- Curate and refine AI-assisted output ruthlessly; know when to keep, kill, or hand-craft over it
- Build and maintain design systems that scale across multiple client engagements
- Collaborate with our team through a desktop-first workflow with deliberate, considered mobile adaptation passes
- Push back on ideas (including the client's) when the work isn't good enough
- Stay ahead of visual and AI-tooling trends without chasing every shiny new plugin
RequirementsWhat We're Looking For
- Exceptional taste. This is non-negotiable. Your portfolio should make this obvious in the first 10 seconds.
- 1+ years of professional visual/product design experience (agency experience is a strong plus)
- Fluency with AI-native tools in a real production workflow, not just prompting, but knowing how to art-direct AI output
- Strong command of Figma and the Adobe Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop); willingness to learn it is a must
- A portfolio that shows range: brand, web, and product, not just one lane
- Ability to defend design decisions with reasoning, not just vibes
- Clear and good communication: able to explain design decisions to clients and teammates without jargon, and comfortable giving and receiving direct feedback
- Experience with motion/interaction design
- Prior experience at a design agency serving enterprise or high-growth startup clients

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene
To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
