The Role

This role will start as a contractor role, with potential to transition into a full-time opportunity based on performance and business need.

What You’ll Do

• Design training visuals : Create 3d art, icons, gifs, and layouts that make complex security topics clear and engaging.
• Elevate learning experiences : Translate written scripts into compelling visual narratives inside our training platform.
• Support consistency : Apply Adaptive’s design system and content style guidelines across modules and keep assets organized.
• Collaborate with content creators : Work closely with product managers and product designers to ensure visuals enhance learning, not just decorate it.
• Experiment with motion / animation : Use lightweight motion to bring key learning moments to life.
• Contribute to accessibility : Design with diverse learners in mind, ensuring clarity, readability, and accessibility in all visuals.
