Senior Brand Designer

ABOUT GLADIA

Gladia builds the audio AI infrastructure behind the new generation of voice products. Our mission is to give every voice platform true conversational intelligence — the audio infrastructure that understands every conversation, turning voice into the world's most valuable data layer.

Our API turns real-world conversational audio into accurate, structured, real-time output — powered by our proprietary Solaria ASR, across 100+ languages, with industry-leading latency.

Hundreds of companies build their voice products on Gladia — from meeting assistants and voice agents to sales-enablement and contact-center platforms. We started in Paris, our growth is developer-led and heavily US-driven (and we're going after the US market hard).

Headquartered in vibrant tech hubs like Paris and New York City, Gladia has entered exclusive negotiations to be acquired by OVH Groupe — Europe's leading cloud provider — with the plan for Gladia to operate as a fully autonomous brand and company.

We're guided by four values:

• Honest — Say the real thing, kindly.

• Smart — Work smart, ship fast.

• Builders — Own your scope, build to last.

• Caring — Support people, take pride in the craft.

THE ROLE

We're looking for a Senior Brand Designer to own and scale Gladia's brand as we grow. This is a hands-on, end-to-end role: roughly 70% brand and web, 30% product design on our internal tools.

Our design system already exists — this isn't a from-scratch build. The depth of the role is in scaling it: keeping our identity sharp and consistent across every page, extending it into video, and supporting the growing set of internal products.

You'll work with a high degree of autonomy. You anticipate needs, reach out directly to the teams you support without waiting to be briefed, and you've already run a brand on your own. You're comfortable managing external partners (agencies, freelancers) when needed, and you keep things moving fast — velocity here is non-negotiable.

This role requires strong web skills. Our website is hand-coded (Next.js, HTML, CSS) using Cursor and hosted on Vercel. Comfort with Cursor or an equivalent IDE is a prerequisite. AI is part of how we work, and we expect a senior designer to bring fluency and genuine curiosity here.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own Gladia's brand identity and ensure consistency across the website, marketing assets, decks, and video

• Design, build and maintain our website directly in the codebase (Next.js / Vercel via Cursor)

• Extend our visual identity into new formats, including video

• Contribute product design on internal tools (GladiaFlow, Compare STT, and others)

• Ship fast: from full homepage redesigns to campaign creative on tight timelines

• Use AI tools to move faster and raise the bar on what a small team can produce

• Manage external partners (agencies, freelancers) autonomously when the work calls for it

WHO YOU ARE

• Senior brand designer with experience in a startup environment

• A portfolio showing 360° coverage: website, video, decks, and brand identity

• Strong fluency and curiosity with AI tools

• Comfortable working in a codebase with Cursor or an equivalent IDE

• Highly autonomous: you've managed a brand on your own

• Fast and decisive, with the ability to explain and defend your design choices

• English fluency

BONUS POINT

• Experience managing external vendors is a plus

WHAT GLADIA OFFERS

• The compensation offered is based on seniority and experience, and would typically range from 65K to 85K base salary

• Hybrid work from our offices in the heart of Paris

• Lunch vouchers (approx. 200€/month)

• An allowance of 360€/year for your sports activities

• An allowance of 300€ for the adaptation of your workstation

• Health insurance (100% coverage) and a pension contract for you & your family

• Flexible vacation policy
