Creative Director

About the role

Legion produces a steady and growing stream of creative across brand, demand, product, web, social, video, and events. We are bringing that creative capability in-house and closer to the team, and rebuilding it as an AI-native creative function, while keeping our agency partner for the largest and most specialized bets. As Creative Director, you are the hands-on operating core of that function: the senior creative who sets the bar, ships the work, and builds the prompts, templates, and playbooks that let a lean team produce like a much larger one. This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role to start, a player-coach who makes the work. You will report to the SVP of Marketing and partner first across the marketing team, including Federal Marketing, Demand Marketing, Product Marketing, Digital Marketing, and PR. You will work closely with the Product team on product design direction and in-product visuals, and with GTM and Sales on enablement and customer-facing materials. You will build and manage a small flex bench of designers and specialists over time, with limited contractor support to start. Why This Role Matters Legion's work spans national security, defense, intelligence, the public sector, critical infrastructure, and the national research labs, work that often matters most where it cannot be discussed. The creative function you build is how that mission becomes legible to the people who need to understand it. You will be building the creative infrastructure that lets Legion tell a hard, important story at the speed the moment demands. Legion is a remote-first company and an equal opportunity employer. We offer competitive compensation, meaningful equity, and a culture built on ownership, discipline, and mission. To apply, submit your resume along with a portfolio or work samples. You will work at two levels at once At the craft level , setting the creative bar and personally shipping the highest-priority brand, campaign, product, and web work. At the systems level , building the machine-readable brand, prompts, and AI-native workflows that make on-brand speed the default for the whole team. The way we build for customers is the way you will build here: a human sets intent, AI does the heavy lifting, and a human approves what ships. This is a builder's seat, not a brand-police seat. If you want to define how a modern, AI-native marketing team creates, ships, governs, and scales creative work, this is that role.
