Sr. Visual Designer

About the Role

We're seeking a Visual Designer to drive high-impact creative initiatives across AppLovin's brand and marketing ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of visual strategy, craft, and execution — with ownership across projects spanning marketing and web content, event graphics, decks and presentations, swag and clothing, office and environmental design, and digital product visuals. You won't be handed a template; you'll take projects from 0 to 1 with the autonomy to shape how AppLovin looks and feels across every surface.

You'll operate with significant independence in a fast-paced environment, working closely with the Branding Lead, design leads across the team, and cross-functional stakeholders depending on the project, to elevate AppLovin's visual presence globally.

A Day in the Life

• Lead visual design projects end-to-end, from initial research and concept through final delivery across digital, print, and motion formats.
• Build and maintain scalable visual identities grounded in strong principles — layout, grid, typography, color, and iconography.
• Translate business goals into strategic visual solutions that are both compelling and on-brand.
• Identify opportunities to strengthen AppLovin's brand and proactively act on them without waiting to be asked.
• Experiment and push for bold ideas — actively research emerging trends and find ways to bring them into the brand, rather than relying on the expected or the safe choice.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously, context-switching fluidly as priorities shift.
• Collaborate across disciplines — marketing, product, engineering, and beyond — while maintaining creative ownership and quality standards.
• Explore and integrate emerging AI tools into your workflow, staying ahead of the curve on new technologies and techniques.

The Impact You'll Make

• Shape the evolution of AppLovin's visual identity across global markets and product surfaces.
• Raise the bar for design quality and craft across the organization.
• Influence how AppLovin shows up to advertisers, and consumers worldwide.

Who You Are

• Proven visual designer with a strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end project ownership — from research to final delivery. Not just an executor: someone with taste, the ability to search for it, and the craft to translate it into concrete outputs across different media and formats.
• Deep expertise in design principles: layouts, grid systems, typography, color, and iconography, with a track record of building scalable visual identities and design systems.
• Highly autonomous; takes initiative and drives projects forward without needing close direction.
• Naturally curious — asks questions, seeks context, and wants to understand the why behind every brief.
• Driven to experiment and create bold, distinctive work — stays on top of the latest trends and looks for ways to translate them into the brand, rather than settling for the comfortable or the familiar.
• Critical thinker who identifies challenges early and arrives with solutions, not just problems.
• Comfortable managing several projects at once in a fast-moving environment.
• Strong collaborator who keeps teams aligned and stays flexible as priorities evolve.
• Proficient in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, with working knowledge of emerging AI tools and a drive to continually master new ones.
• Portfolio that reflects AppLovin's aesthetic — clean, modern, humanistic — is a strong advantage.
