Corkified — Turning Every Bottle Into a Relationship
Who we are
Corkified gives every wine bottle a digital identity — connecting producers directly to the people who drink their wine. We are an early-stage company with global ambitions, and everything we put into the world needs to look and sound like it was made with intention.
The role
You will manage how Corkified looks, sounds, and presents itself. That means completing and standardising our design system, producing the materials that represent us to producers and investors, and running our communications channels with consistency and craft. AI is central to how you will work — not occasionally, but every day, across the full creative process.
This is a senior, independent role reporting directly to the CEO. You set the standard. You own the output.
What you will do
Design system Complete and document what exists — turning a partially built system into a rigorous, scalable reference with master templates in Figma for every format we use.
Design and production Landing pages, pitch decks, producer presentations, investor materials, social content, and email campaigns — produced to a standard that reflects where Corkified is going.
AI-powered workflow Use AI tools actively across everything: copy, imagery, layout, production, and automation. Bring a point of view on which tools matter and help raise the team's creative output as a result.
Communications Own LinkedIn and other channels — strategy, writing, design, scheduling. Write and publish blog posts and long-form content. Plan and execute email campaigns from brief to send.
Brand guardianship Be the final eye before anything is published. Brief external suppliers when needed. Make sure the brand holds as the team grows.
What we are looking for
5+ years across design, brand, and communications — agency and in-house experience both valued
Demonstrable experience building or completing a design system, not just working within one
Expert in Figma. Comfortable in Photoshop.
Fluent with AI tools in a creative workflow
Knowledge of the wine industry or wine is a plus
Writes professionally in both English and Portuguese
Copywriting ability — you can produce a landing page, a campaign email, or a blog post that does not need to be rewritten
Independent, high quality bar, comfortable with early-stage pace
