  • Proven ability to craft narrative-driven design solutions across omnichannel campaigns—web, event, in-store and social.
  • Develop and refine design systems, including templates and design elements libraries, within tools that enable more self-serve and faster content production that meets both brand and design fidelity standards at scale.
  • Stay on the leading edge of design trends, AI advancements, and digital storytelling techniques, sharing insights and inspiration back to the team.
  • Design brand-aligned assets for a broad portfolio of platforms—web, environmental, graphic, and event design—leveraging expertise and technology to elevate creative quality and cohesion at every touchpoint.
Strategic Mindset & Innovation Leadership
  • Demonstrated ability to bridge design and technology, shaping the future of how creative teams work.
  • Clear communicator who can articulate the "why" behind the work—inspiring teammates, educating stakeholders and advocating for smart experimentation.
  • Passion for future-forward design practices, including co-creation with AI, generative workflows and experience innovation.
  • Obsessed with efficiency, quality, and innovation, always pushing for smarter, faster, more adaptive creative methods without sacrificing craft, quality and brand fidelity.
What you’ll bring:
  • 3+ years in creative roles across digital design, creative technology, or experience design within agency or in-house teams.
  • Bachelor's degree in Design, Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, or related field; hybrid backgrounds strongly preferred.
