Visual Designer Jobs in Chicago, IL (NOW HIRING)

Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people's lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business-critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the #1 company in e-signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).

You will lead event-focused brand design from concept through execution, creating high-impact, cohesive visual systems and experiences that connect our Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) story to customers, prospects, and partners across the globe. This role sits at the intersection of experiential design, marketing, and storytelling, owning the visual expression of Docusign at events like Momentum, Regional Momentums and Momentum on Tour, Dreamforce, GKO, Discover, and priority partner programs such as CLOC and Ignite.
