Position Summary & Responsibilities

Company

Gantri is building the digital manufacturer for design. We combine software, advanced materials, and a local digital factory to produce high-mix, low-volume furniture and lighting on demand. We partner with world-class designers and brands to create products that are more innovative, more sustainable, and made locally.

We’re looking for a Director of Design to lead brand design, UI/UX, and creative at Gantri — someone with exceptional taste and a track record of building cohesive, elevated brand experiences for design-forward, tech-enabled consumer companies.

Role

We're looking for a Director of Design to lead and elevate every dimension of Gantri's design expression, including brand, digital, and creative. This person will own the visual identity and experience of a company where design is the entire point.

You'll set the creative bar across brand design, UI/UX, campaigns, packaging, and storytelling. You'll build and mentor a tight-knit, high-caliber team. You'll work closely with Product, Marketing, Sales and Software to shape how Gantri looks, feels, and communicates at every touchpoint. This is a rare opportunity to lead the design voice of a design disrupter.

🎯 Candidate Preparation Guide For Gantri Applicants

Key Role Competencies & Evaluation Highlights

Key Role Focus:

Assessing rigorous design sensibility, sustainable manufacturing literacy, and the ability to scale a direct-to-consumer digital-physical ecosystem.

📋 Preparation Priorities (Key Areas to Clarify):

1. Treating design purely as an afterthought rather than a core business driver.
2. Lack of familiarity with sustainable hardware supply chains or domestic manufacturing complexities.
3. Proposing generic performance marketing tactics that dilute high-end brand equity.

✨ Recommended Role Alignment Hook:

I bridge the gap between visionary industrial design and high-velocity digital acquisition to scale sustainable physical goods.
