Job description
Why This Role Matters Now
We’re growing fast - as we scale our brand, design, and creative execution are central to how customers experience and feel about DualEntry. The Founding Visual Design Lead will own design strategy and output end-to-end across brand, marketing, and product assets — setting the standard for speed, craft, and consistency.
We think in systems, protect the core, and embrace creative destruction. We iterate while building and ship with purpose.
Underneath it all is a belief that beauty matters — that emotion belongs in software, and that what people remember most is how it made them feel. We strive for excellence in design across all customer touchpoints.
About DualEntry
Founded in 2024, DualEntry is one of NYC’s fastest-growing AI startups, backed by top-tier VCs and 30+ unicorn founders.
Our team previously built a $100M ARR business from scratch, scaled it to 300+ people, and led a successful exit.
Now, we’re building a category-defining AI-native SaaS ERP product to automate and modernize enterprise accounting — one of the most painful and outdated products in finance still stuck in the 1990’s.
We move fast and care deeply about what we ship.
📍 Location: Remote with overlap to our New York HQ on US EST timezone.
