Hire designers in India, powered by Mira AI.

Open the role with the discipline, tools, seniority and timezone overlap you need. Mira AI drafts the job description and scorecard, the role reaches our candidate community, and every application is scored against your scorecard, portfolio included, as it arrives. You review the ranked shortlist, and when you are ready to offer, Wisemonk employs the person on your behalf so you do not need an Indian entity.

Any of them. UI/UX and product design, graphic design, brand and identity, motion and video, illustration and web design are the areas we hire for most. Roles outside those, from 3D and AR/VR to packaging, presentation design and UX writing, can be opened the same way; the scorecard is built from your brief, not from a fixed list.

It depends on seniority, the discipline and the city. A senior product designer who owns a design system is benchmarked very differently from a mid-level graphic designer. When you post a role, we check your salary band against our own payroll data for that discipline and tell you before it goes live whether the band will fill it. On top of salary, employer costs in India include provident fund and gratuity, which Wisemonk carries as the legal employer.

Applications start arriving as soon as the role is live, and Mira AI scores them as they come in. The start date is set by the notice period rather than the search: employed designers commonly serve 30 to 90 days, and senior hires are often a full 90. Filter for shorter notice when the start date matters more than seniority.

Mira AI scores each application against the scorecard you wrote, and reads the linked portfolio alongside the CV, which for design is the real signal. Every score comes with the reasoning behind it. You still review the portfolio yourself and run your own interviews, and a short paid design exercise on a realistic brief tells you more than any CV.

Early on, a generalist who can move between product, brand and marketing keeps you flexible. As the work deepens, specialists in product design, motion or brand deliver more. Write the mix you need into the scorecard and Mira AI will weigh range against depth accordingly.

Partial overlap with the UK and Europe is standard and easy to staff, which suits design work built around reviews and critique. Full US-hours shifts are a smaller pool, so set the overlap you need when you open the role and only candidates who accept it apply.

No. Wisemonk becomes the legal employer, holds the employment contract, runs payroll, and handles provident fund, gratuity, ESI and income tax withholding. You direct the work day to day. If you already have an Indian entity, you can employ the person on it instead. That is decided at offer stage, not when you post.

Indian law looks at how the work is directed, not at what the contract is called. If you set hours, supply the laptop and manage someone daily, treating them as a contractor carries misclassification risk, and it also affects who owns the designs and source files. Employment through Wisemonk removes that risk without needing your own entity.

Your company. The employment contract Wisemonk signs on your behalf includes IP assignment and confidentiality terms, so work created in the course of employment, including designs, source files and brand assets, belongs to you, not to the designer or to Wisemonk.

Roughly six to nine years, owning the design of a product or a brand system end to end, setting the patterns others follow and giving art direction. Titles inflate in the Indian market, so write the scope you need into the scorecard rather than relying on the job title on a CV.

Yes. Screen candidates with Mira AI and export them into your own system, or run the whole process here. Candidates from your careers page, a referral or another job board get scored against the same scorecard as ours.
