Dye Capital & Company

We&rsquo;re an AI company that actually makes creative things. Our products generate video content, power digital screens, and coach frontline teams &mdash; and we need a visual creative who can keep up with the technology. If you get restless when things look &ldquo;just okay,&rdquo; you&rsquo;re always experimenting with new tools and new mediums, and you light up at the intersection of design and AI &mdash; keep reading.About XQaiXQai is the Execution Intelligence Platform. We build AI products for retail operators, restaurant groups, and sports organizations &mdash; and creative output is baked into what we sell. Our product suite includes an AI-powered video production studio (Spotlight), a digital display network that delivers content to screens across partner locations (Vista), gamified AI coaching for frontline teams (LvlUp), and real-time operational analytics (Lighthouse). Creative isn&rsquo;t a support function here &mdash; it&rsquo;s core to the product.We&rsquo;re a small, fast-moving founding team backed by serious technology. We don&rsquo;t do bureaucracy. We ship. And we&rsquo;re looking for our first dedicated creative to help define what XQai looks, sounds, and feels like as we scale.The RoleAs Associate Creative Director, you&rsquo;ll be the creative engine behind XQai &mdash; and that means two things. First, you&rsquo;ll be hands-on producing creative assets that live inside our products: video content for Spotlight, visual content for Vista&rsquo;s display network, and design work that our clients and their customers actually see. Second, you&rsquo;ll own the visual identity of XQai itself &mdash; marketing, sales collateral, social, brand, all of it.This isn&rsquo;t a role where you execute someone else&rsquo;s creative brief and call it a day. You&rsquo;ll work across mediums &mdash; motion graphics, video editing, graphic design, presentation design, social assets &mdash; and you&rsquo;ll be expected to bring ideas to the table, not just pixels. We want someone who has opinions about what &ldquo;great&rdquo; looks like and isn&rsquo;t afraid to push for it.What You&rsquo;ll Do<ul><li>Create video content and digital series for our AI production studio (Spotlight) &mdash; from concept through post-production &mdash; using Premiere Pro and After Effects</li><li>Design and produce visual content for our digital display network (Vista) that runs on screens across partner locations in retail, restaurants, and sports venues</li><li>Build creative assets that support client engagements &mdash; pitch decks, demo videos, case study visuals, campaign creative, and sales collateral that help close deals</li><li>Leverage AI-powered creative tools (generative imagery, AI video, automated design workflows) to multiply your output without sacrificing quality &mdash; this is an AI company, and we use it</li><li>Own XQai&rsquo;s brand identity across every visual touchpoint &mdash; website, social, marketing materials, product UI &mdash; making sure we always look sharp, modern, and unmistakable</li><li>Design high-impact graphics, one-pagers, presentations, and social content in Photoshop, Illustrator, and modern design tools</li><li>Collaborate directly with the founding team on campaign concepts, product launches, and go-to-market creative</li><li>Bring fresh creative ideas to the table &mdash; you&rsquo;re not waiting for assignments, you&rsquo;re spotting opportunities and proposing concepts</li></ul>What You BringYour portfolio is your resume.

You didn&rsquo;t wait for permission to start creating.You&rsquo;re not looking for a safe corporate gig. You want to be at a company where your work matters on day one, where you can grow with the company, and where the technology you&rsquo;re working with is genuinely exciting. You care about craft, but you&rsquo;re not precious &mdash; you&rsquo;d rather ship something great today than agonize over perfection for a month.You&rsquo;re curious about AI, not threatened by it.
