How to Apply for Senior Brand & Marketing Designer

at Serve Robotics

🏢 About Serve Robotics

Serve Robotics is pioneering sustainable urban logistics with zero-emissions, self-driving delivery robots. Unlike traditional tech companies, they're physically transforming last-mile delivery while addressing environmental concerns. Working here means contributing to tangible, eco-friendly innovation that's visible on city streets.

About This Role

This Senior Brand & Marketing Designer will be the guardian of Serve Robotics' visual identity across all touchpoints, from digital campaigns to physical robot decals. You'll translate their sustainability mission into compelling visual systems that must work at scale across diverse media. This role directly impacts how consumers perceive autonomous delivery technology in their communities.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing robot deployment footage to assess brand visibility, then collaborate with marketing on campaign assets, develop templates for cross-functional teams, and refine decal designs considering weather durability and public safety regulations. Much of your work bridges digital design tools with real-world physical applications.
