Set and enforce creative standards for typography, motion, imagery, tone, and layout
Review and approve key creative outputs to maintain a high bar
Product & Experience Collaboration
Partner closely with Product, Design, and Engineering to ensure brand alignment inside the product
Influence how Incard feels, not just how it looks
Ensure product experiences reflect Incard’s positioning: clarity, power, and confidence
Campaigns, Events & Flagship Moments
Lead creative direction for major campaigns, launches, and brand moments
Own the creative vision for offline events, founder dinners, yearly awards, and Incard flagship experiences
Ensure campaigns feel timeless, not trend-driven
Agency & Partner Management
Select, brief, and manage creative agencies and production partners
Set clear creative direction while giving agencies room to do their best work
Maintain consistency across internal and external creative teams
Creative Leadership & Culture
Act as a creative reference point across the company
Mentor designers, creatives, and collaborators

What We’re Looking For
10+ years of experience in Art Direction, Creative Direction, or Brand Leadership
Proven experience working on iconic, global brands or large-scale creative platforms
Strong portfolio demonstrating long-term brand thinking, not just campaigns
Exceptional taste in typography, layout, motion, and storytelling

Experience in fintech, technology, or product-led companies
Experience shaping brands at scale or through multiple growth phases
Background in both digital and offline creative experiences
Experience working closely with founders or executive leadership
Mindset We Look For

Strong point of view with disciplined restraint
Obsession with consistency, clarity, and craft
Low ego, high standards, and deep respect for collaboration
Comfortable saying “no” to protect the brand
Startup DNA — ambition, ownership, and accountability
Benefits:
