About the Role

We're hiring a Brand Design Director to shape and elevate Suno's brand through both creative leadership and hands-on design execution.

You'll collaborate closely with our Creative Director, and work cross-functionally with content & social, product, and marketing teams to ensure that our brand not only looks exceptional but reflects innovation, agility, and creativity in every interaction. We're looking for someone who is deeply invested in craft, stays ahead of the curve on emerging technologies (especially AI), and thrives on continuous experimentation and optimization.

You'll play a key role in helping Suno find and refine its unique visual voice-bringing a deep commitment to design quality and consistency, while always looking for ways to elevate and evolve. You're someone who's curious, open, and driven to explore new ideas-whether through new tools, formats, or creative approaches-and you bring a strong sense of when to push boundaries and when to focus on craft.
