Visual Designer (Equity Based)
About Wastel
Wastel is a climate-tech startup turning waste streams into measurable climate assets - connecting waste generators, biofuel manufacturers, heavy industries, and policymakers on one platform.
We’re creating a new economic layer:
Waste → Biofuel → CO₂ reduction → Carbon credits → Permit trading
…and shaping India’s circular economy.
About the Role
We are seeking a design-driven mind - someone who lives and breathes visual systems, UX psychology, and innovation.
This role is 80% creative visual communication for marketing & awareness, and 20% design support for product UI direction.
You will become the voice of Wastel through visuals.
? What You’ll Do
✔ Create social media graphics (LinkedIn, Instagram, X/Twitter, YouTube thumbnails)
✔ Turn complex climate & waste concepts into clean visual stories
✔ Create posters, diagrams, banners, pitch images, infographics
✔ Support fundraising & investor decks with polished visuals
✔ Design branding elements consistent with Wastel identity
✔ Create educational visuals (e.g. CO₂ reduction, biomaterial flow, supply chain)
✔ Collaborate with content writers & founders to execute campaigns
✔ Help develop Wastel’s visual personality & tone
✔ Have creative freedom — zero micromanagement
Secondary Responsibilities
✔ Provide UI direction & styling for product mockups
✔ Review basic screen layouts in Figma
✔ Suggest design consistency for mobile screens
Requirements
Must-have:
? Your graphics don’t just sell — they educate, change thinking, inspire.
? You will shape how India understands climate accountability and waste-to-energy.
? You’ll be part of the founding narrative and visual legacy of Wastel.
? You’ll hold equity — owning a piece of the company you design into reality.
? Your work will be seen by stakeholders:
This is mission-driven visual influence.
Ideal Candidate
You are someone who:
✔ sees Instagram as an educational platform
✔ loves crafting visual analogies
✔ gets excited by cause-driven design
✔ can turn numbers into charts
✔ can turn policy into posters
✔ can turn science into simple visuals
This role is not for someone who wants a standard job with repetitive tasks.
It’s for someone who wants to say:
“I designed the system that transformed India’s waste into clean energy.”
If this gives you energy…
We should talk.
