Senior Graphic Designer
True AnomalySpace was once the quietest place in the universe. Now, it's crowded, contested, and confrontational. We are True Anomaly: the only defense company focused exclusively on space defense. Founded in 2022 by ex-U.S. Space Force members, True Anomaly designs and builds advanced systems for space superiority: agile and powerful spacecraft platforms, mission software engineered for unmatched command and control, and payloads tailored for precision sensing and effects. True Anomaly is headquartered in Centennial, CO, with regional offices in Colorado Springs, CO, Long Beach, CA, and Washington, D.C. We are hiring and seeking exceptional talent to join True Anomaly, from any technical industry or background, to bring unique talents, perspective, and solutions. If you embrace complexity, lead instead of follow, showcase integrity over ego, take ownership for outcomes, and measure success by impact, we want to hear from you.
A new space race has begun. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build innovative technology that solves the next generation of engineering, manufacturing, and operational challenges for space security and sustainability. OUR MISSION The peaceful use of space is essential for continued prosperity on Earth—from communications and finance to navigation and logistics. True Anomaly builds innovative technology at the intersection of spacecraft, software, and AI to enhance the capabilities of the U.S., its allies, and commercial partners. We safeguard global security by ensuring space access and sustainability for all. OUR VALUES - Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity - What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results - It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together YOUR MISSION Creatives like you are essential to this mission — to inspire, narrate, and build. This is some of the most meaningful work you'll ever do, in an industry devoted to protecting the people you care about. We're looking for an experienced graphic designer to join a growing creative team at an early and exciting moment for the company. This is a hands-on role — creating product assets, brand materials, visionary content, and whatever else the mission demands. Your artistic talent is front and center; we're not directing agencies, we're rolling up our sleeves and doing. You'll work directly with our Creative Director who’s building this team for people who care as much about the craft as the mission. WHY THIS ROLE There's no established playbook for how space security looks, sounds, or feels. No legacy brand guidelines handed down from a fifty-year-old agency relationship. No committee approving your every choice. The work you make here will define how an emerging and critical industry presents itself to the world. You'll have real ownership. From designs that will go into orbit to how we frame our strategy, your fingerprints will be on work seen at the highest levels of government and military, as well as the public. If you've ever wanted your craft to carry real weight — this is that job. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Design & Creative Execution - Help us build our product. Create visual assets from scratch utilizing a variety of methods, 3D, 2D, photography, film, whatever it takes - Drive vision with our products and company strategy and visualize ways to tell our story in a way that connects - Bring impeccable design and artistic vision into everything we do, make us stand out WHAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE - We hire for talent and potential, not pedigree. - Show us an amazing portfolio that showcases your personal artistic skills and demonstrates your experience on projects you’re proud of - While defense and space knowledge is great, we don’t expect it. Tech, Games, design/creative agency and freelancer are all good backgrounds for this role - We work in Adobe Creative Suite, Blender or Cinema 4D for 3D, and Figma for UX — comfort with these is a plus, mastery of your own toolset matters more. 3D is not essential for this role but a plus. WHAT WE EXPECT - Leverage your experience to work quickly and efficiently, we’re a lean team, everyone needs to pitch in and move fast - Take ownership of creative programs and see them through concept to final execution - Turn your hand to what’s needed, livery for a spacecraft – check, presentation materials for a board meeting - check If you like this role but your skills or experience don’t quite fit… well apply anyway, or look at our other creative team role and see if that’s a better match: SENIOR UI DESIGNER COMPENSATION: - Base Salary: $90,000-$130,000 - Equity + Benefits including Health, Dental, Vision, HRA/HSA options, PTO and paid holidays, 401K, Parental Leave Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education and experience. This position will be open until it is successfully filled. To submit your application, please follow the directions below. To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
