• Help define and evolve Tapstitch's visual identity across channels in collaboration with the Content and Marketing team
• Build and maintain scalable design templates for recurring content series
• Create structured systems for organizing and operationalizing design across teams
• Support creation of visual content for campaigns, launches, and product drops
• Design assets that support storytelling (case studies, educational content, product highlights)
• Collaborate with the Content team to create short-form video content across social channels
• Spot social and visual trends and propose concepts to the content team to execute on, including viral TikTok and Instagram trends to then create the content for public use
• Design graphics for clothing using Tapstitch products for use in content and campaigns
• Help iterate on high-performing formats and continuously improve visual output
• Support web and marketing design needs (emails, landing pages, decks)
• Use AI tools to generate visuals, explore creative directions, and improve design workflows
• Organize and maintain design files, templates, and brand assets
