Slingshot AI

Slingshot AI is the team behind Ash, the first AI designed for mental health. Our mission is to make support more accessible and help people change their lives in the ways they want.

We’re building a world-class team by empowering individuals with the autonomy, flexibility, and support they need to do their best work. We dream big, iterate fast, and care deeply. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.

Our team spans machine learning, product, engineering, conversational design, clinical, growth, and operations, with offices in both New York City and London.

We're a well-funded Series A company, having raised $93M from Andreessen Horowitz, Radical Ventures, Forerunner Ventures, plus top-tier tech investors involved in ElevenLabs, Captions, Shopify, Plaid, Notion, Canva, Twitch, Airtable, and many others.

The role

This is a chance to join a passionate team leveraging cutting-edge AI to improve mental health access globally. As a Designer, you will work across the Marketing and Product team to help shape our creative storytelling across our product, while bringing our brand to life outside of it.

In this role you’ll be crafting the visual direction for marketing campaigns, landing pages, social assets, emails, and videos. You’ll also collaborate with the product team on prototypes, features that benefit from visual storytelling, and UI flourishes that make Ash feel cohesive and high craft.

About you:

  • Resourceful & Adaptive: You figure things out by doing. Whether it’s creating an email asset, editing a short video, or adapting creative for a new channel, you’re comfortable learning in motion.

  • High Craft, Strong Fundamentals: You have good taste. You understand typography, color, layout, composition, and motion, and you know how to apply them to tell a compelling story.

  • Comfortable with Ambiguity: You thrive in evolving environments where direction isn’t fully defined. You bring clarity through exploration and iteration.

  • Systems-Driven Designer: You’re able to build scalable visual systems that work across multiple surfaces. Your work demonstrates coherence, flexibility, and a strong sense of craft.

  • Collaborative & Low Ego: You enjoy working with product, marketing, growth, and clinical teams. You take feedback seriously and use it to sharpen the work.

Key responsibilities:

  • Creative Direction & Asset Creation: Design across marketing, landing pages, email, pitch decks, and in-app UI—translating strategic direction into cohesive, high-impact creative.

  • In-Product Brand Expression: Collaborate with designers and product strategists to create brand-aligned product visuals—education screens, empty states, illustrations, onboarding moments, and other flourishes.

  • Exploration & Iteration: Prototype quickly, iterate based on feedback or performance, and experiment with new creative approaches and formats.

  • Systems & Toolkits: Build templates, kits, and reusable systems that help internal teams and external partners extend the brand consistently.

  • Bring our story to life: Lead design across key brand moments such as product launches, campaigns, events, internal initiatives, and moments we haven’t defined yet.

What we offer:

  • A chance to join a passionate tight-knit team working on something to change the world

  • Competitive compensation (we target 90th percentile)

  • Travel between our NYC / London offices

  • Usual startup perks like free lunch in our offices + generous learning budget

  • Generous budget to cover your personal therapy

Compensation Range: $150K - $200K
