About the Role
We’re looking for a Creative Lead to own and evolve Acrylic’s creative direction — across brand, art, product, and public presence.
This isn’t a role for a “creative executor.” We’re looking for someone with strong taste, bold ideas, and founder energy — someone who can set the direction, roll up their sleeves, and help us bring a totally new creative category to life.
You’ll work directly with our CEO and founding team, helping define what Acrylic looks and feels like to the world — from the art we make, to the brand we embody, to the stories we tell.
About Us
Acrylic Robotics builds robots that paint like humans — powered by real artists, not just algorithms. Our work combines AI, robotics, and visual art to create gallery-quality paintings at scale, using real materials and physical brushstrokes.
We’re backed by top-tier VCs and the founders of multiple unicorns. Our collaborators span the worlds of fine art, generative AI, hospitality, interior design, and culture. We’ve been featured by Adobe at Art Basel, showcased across Seoul, SF, London, and more — and we’re just getting started.
What You’ll Do
- Define and own the visual direction of the brand — across web, social, product, campaigns, and everything in between
- Set the creative tone of our artwork — shaping what Acrylic’s art looks and feels like
- Work hands-on to build creative assets — from graphics and layouts to visuals, moodboards, mini-campaigns, and experiments
- Collaborate directly with the CEO to evolve our public-facing presence — our storytelling, our aesthetics, our vibe
- Curate and develop art collections — and help evaluate new artist partnerships and commissions
- Support product direction — by shaping visual interfaces, testing ideas, and offering high-level taste-based feedback
Who You Are
This is not an entry-level role . You’ve likely led creative direction before — for a brand, studio, or startup — and now want to bring that experience somewhere you can really leave a mark.
You should have:
- Strong visual taste — you know what makes great art great, and you can articulate why
- A portfolio that shows strong design execution across brand, visual identity, and storytelling
- Experience building creative assets (graphics, visuals, decks, mockups, etc.)
- Ability to set a consistent, distinctive visual voice across different platforms
- Experience collaborating closely with senior teams or product leads
- A track record of self-direction and ownership — you don’t wait for permission
- Excitement about working in-person with a small, high-trust team
Bonus if you have:
- Experience with prompt engineering or AI art tools like Midjourney, DALL·E, or similar
- Art curation experience — especially in contemporary, generative, or digital art
- Comfort with event design, community-building, or public-facing creative work
- Skills in photography, motion design, web design, copy writing or video
- Product sensibility — you think like a builder, not just a brander
Why You Might Love Working Here
- You’ll have real ownership — and the room to define a visual world from scratch
- You’ll be part of a small team working on a big vision, with fast feedback loops
- You’ll shape not just what we look like, but how we think, feel, and show up
- You’ll work on tech that doesn’t just follow trends — it creates new categories
- You’ll be surrounded by weird, ambitious people who care deeply about art and beauty
- We prioritize craft, curiosity, and building something meaningful together
Why You Might Not Love It Here
- Priorities shift quickly — if you need a stable roadmap or fixed structure, this might not be the place
- You’ll be working in-person most days — we value the energy of shared space and build physical products
- We expect self-management and high ownership — if you need lots of direction, this likely won’t be the right fit
- This is not a corporate creative role — you’ll be context-switching often and shaping systems as you go
What to Expect: Our Hiring Process
We try to keep our hiring process thoughtful, respectful, and lightweight — no long forms or endless rounds of interviews.
Here’s a rough idea of what you can expect:
- Application: A short Typeform to get to know you and your work
- Intro chat or video submission: A quick async video or a live 10-minute call with someone on our team
- Interviews: A couple of conversations with folks from our core team — usually Lauren, Chloë, Kyle, or others depending on the role
- (Optional) Creative exercise or case: If helpful, we may invite you to do a quick project or brainstorm session — designed to be fun and low-lift
- (Optional) Advisor chat: For some roles, you might meet a trusted advisor or external collaborator
We move on a rolling basis and tailor the process to the role and the person — our goal is to get to know you, not put you through a hiring gauntlet. And if we’re not a fit right now, we’ll always try to close the loop respectfully.
How to Apply
We’re reviewing applications on a rolling basis.
