Description
We're looking for an experienced Events Designer to create memorable visual experiences across OpenAI events, live streams, and global product announcements. You’ll develop cohesive visual identities and translate them across keynote presentations, large-format screens, streaming graphics, event environments, and merchandise.
Working closely with brand, marketing, events, motion, and production teams, you’ll bring strong creative thinking and hands-on design craft to every experience.
In this role, you will:
- Design event experiences from concept to execution, including signage, wayfinding, wall graphics, apparel, merchandise, and other onsite brand applications.
- Build cohesive visual systems that extend across physical environments, keynote presentations, large-format screens, and digital event touchpoints.
- Create broadcast and livestream graphics, including overlays, lower thirds, titles, countdowns, and other motion-ready assets.
- Storyboard and art-direct motion work in partnership with internal motion designers and external creative partners, ensuring consistency across formats.
- Collaborate with producers, motion designers, video teams, artists, event planners, marketing, and product partners to translate event objectives into distinctive creative work.
- Maintain and evolve OpenAI’s brand system in event contexts, creating reusable templates, documenting design decisions, and supporting the scalable execution of global events.
You might thrive in this role if you have:
- 8+ years of experience translating a creative concept into production-ready graphics for events, live broadcasts, or large-scale brand experiences.
- A strong portfolio demonstrating thoughtful, high-quality brand and experiential design across physical and digital surfaces.
- Fluency with design tools and processes for visual identity, presentations, environmental graphics, and digital or motion design.
- Excellent visual craft and attention to detail, including typography, composition, brand consistency, and production specifications.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to explain design decisions and partner with cross-functional teams and vendors.
- Ability to manage overlapping projects and design timelines, adapt to ambiguity, and deliver excellent work under event deadlines.
- Experience with livestream graphics, motion direction, large-format print production, or experiential design is a plus.
