About Atlys

Our mission is to enable every person on Earth to travel freely.

Travel should feel exciting. Instead, too much of it is still defined by paperwork, uncertainty, and processes that were never designed for travellers.

Atlys is changing that.

We’re building an AI-first platform that removes friction and uncertainty from travel. To date, we’ve processed visas for 1M+ travellers across 127 countries. But we’re still early.

The Role

We’re looking for an Art Director to lead the visual direction of Atlys across brand and performance.

You’ll lead our team of graphic designers, set the creative bar, and stay close enough to the work to shape ideas and step into execution when needed.

This role sits at the intersection of brand, culture and business. You’ll define how Atlys shows up visually, build a strong design team and turn ambitious briefs into distinctive creative across digital and offline channels.

The Job

• Define the visual direction for Atlys across brand campaigns, social, performance marketing, web and offline experiences, creating work that is distinctive and recognisably ours.

• Turn briefs into strong creative concepts and carry them from the first idea through art direction, design and final execution.

• Build and evolve Atlys’ visual identity through systems, principles and creative expressions that scale across channels without becoming formulaic.

• Lead and develop the graphic design team by setting a high creative bar, giving clear direction and feedback, and getting hands-on when a project needs your craft or judgment.

• Raise the creative bar while moving fast by partnering closely with Marketing, Content and Product to ship ambitious work and iterate based on what resonates.

The Ideal Candidate

You’ll likely thrive in this role if you:

• Have 8+ years of experience across brand, advertising or visual design, ideally with exposure to agencies, studios or digital-first consumer brands.

• Have a portfolio that demonstrates strong art direction, visual storytelling and brand-building, not just polished execution.

• Have experience leading and developing graphic designers while staying close enough to the craft to guide execution when needed.

• Bring exceptional visual judgment across typography, composition, colour and layout, with experience across digital and offline formats.

• Have sharp cultural and internet instincts, and the ability to create excellent work at speed without losing craft.

We hire exceptional people for their craft, not travel enthusiasts. We solve hard problems that happen to touch global travel and government infrastructure.

What you can expect

Atlys is built by a small team with outsized ambition, high ownership, and an obsession with doing great work.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Competitive compensation and equity so you participate in the value you help create.

• Comprehensive health insurance covering you and your family, plus annual preventive health check-up on us.

• A thoughtful leave policy with paid time off and company holidays, because great work also requires real time off.

• Lunch, high tea and dinner at the office, so the basics are taken care of while we build together.

• Learning & development credits to invest in courses, books, conferences and tools that help you get better at your craft.

• Relocation support to make moving closer to the team as seamless as possible.

• Great tools to do your best work, including high-spec equipment and software.

• An office designed for more than just work, with pickleball, table tennis, PlayStation, an arcade game room, an F1 simulator and even a full flight simulator.

Our values shape how we make decisions, work together and build for travelers. The bar is high, the pace is fast, and the way we work is deliberate. Read them before you apply. If this environment energizes you, you’ll probably thrive here. If it doesn’t, it’s better to know that upfront.
