Background

Praan (Praan, Inc.) is an impact focused deep-tech startup democratizing clean air using breakthrough filterless technology. The company is backed by top tier VCs and CXOs globally and currently operates between the United States and India. Our team puts extreme attention to detail and loves building technology that's aspirational. Praan's team and culture is positioned to empower people to solve large global problems at an accelerated pace.

Why

Everyone worries about the dooms-day in climate change which is expected to occur in the 2050s. However, there's one doom's day which is the reality for millions of people around the world today. Air pollution takes more than 7 Million lives globally every single year.

Over 5% of premature children death occur due to air pollution in developing countries. Everyone has relied on governments or experts to solve the problem, but most solutions up until today have either been too expensive or too ineffective. Praan is an attempt at making the future cleaner, healthier, and safer for the generations to come.

Job Overview

Praan’s team solves nuanced technical problems using design, cutting edge engineering, and manufacturing. However, this nuance serves as a high barrier for usability if the software, brochures, manuals, and other marketing materials aren’t able to convey the concepts simply and visually. Further, with high emphasis on design and space, it’s imperative that Praan’s technology along with its impact, uniqueness, and reliability is conveyed effectively to any audience.

As a Visual Communication Designer, you will primarily focus on creating compelling visual narratives across marketing, product and technical content, while also contributing to UI/UX design for our digital products.

- Develop illustrations, renders, animations and motion graphics for campaigns and promotional content

- Maintain a cohesive visual language and consistency across all communications, following brand guidelines
- Collaborate with marketing, product, sales and engineering teams to align visuals with brand and business goals
- Manage multiple projects in parallel, ensuring every deliverable meets a high bar of quality, accuracy and polish

Skill Requirements

- A degree/diploma in 3D design, computer animation, graphic/communication design, industrial design, fine arts or a related field
