Reporting to: VP of Content

If you’ve ever taken an online course, you already know that 99% of them suck. The world has the ability to create incredible cinematic experiences, but the status quo for online education is having a dry, uninspiring instructor talk to the camera for hours on end. In an ice cream parlor of unlimited flavors, everyone else has opted for vanilla. We have our eye on the blush-pink rose and saffron double-folded gelato topped with perfectly toasted pistachios and honey-caramelized lavender.

Jumpcut is a Y Combinator company, and went through the startup accelerator in summer 2016. We create cinematic online courses with some of the world’s biggest influencers. Our founding team has years of experience creating binge-worthy content -- and now we are on a mission to interrupt the online education industry by creating courses for the modern world that are as addictive as your favorite TV show.

Role Overview:

We are looking to add a Graphic Designer/Illustrator to the team! We’re currently going through a rebranding and launching a new course, so your role is to design assets for our website, course platform, and marketing materials using fresh-out-the-oven brand guidelines. You will be working closely with our VP of Content and our Product Team to create undeniably beautiful digital designs that showcase our push for excellence.
