Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders and external partners, setting the creative bar and ensuring cohesion across all deliverables
  • Independently drive design and brand projects from concepting to execution, and also know when to step back and gather feedback or ask for help
  • Oversee design systems and ensure visual consistency, ensuring materials are executed to a high level of craft and clarity across all mediums and audiences
  • Lead thoughtful, constructive critiques, where we focus on the work not the ego
  • Take as much responsibility as possible, often managing your own projects
  • Define, refine, and protect brand aesthetics
  • Sketch, storyboard, and prototype websites, publications, and brand guides, decks, one-pagers, digital brochures, investor materials, and corporate communications
  • Be a team player with a "no task is too small" attitude, but also know when to delegate and how to mentor others
  • Maintain asset libraries and archives

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in graphic, brand or communication design experience at a creative agency, brand, technology company or similar environment
  • 3+ years of experience leading projects, teams or cross-functional initiatives
  • Mastery of Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
  • Exceptional graphic design fundamentals, typographic sensibilities, strong grids, hierarchy and systems thinking
  • Experience building and evolving design systems
  • Proven ability to thrive in a creative, scrappy, and collaborative environment, while having the vision and autonomy to create systems and process for the future
  • Confident in the work, but balanced by healthy self-doubt (most of us are usually wrong)
  • Smart, kind, creative, collaborative
  • Verbally and visually articulate
  • Comfortable mentoring junior designers and contributing to a healthy team culture

Preferred

  • A strong network of freelance creative collaborators across design and web development

Benefits

  • A benefits package that helps you take care of yourself and your family, including:
  • Flexible paid time off
  • Health insurance (the company pays 100% of gold level PPO plan for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
  • Dental insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees and 100% for their partners and dependents)
  • Vision insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
  • Disability insurance (the company pays 100% for a policy to provide long term financial support if you become disabled)
  • Ability to contribute to tax-advantaged accounts, including 401(k), health FSA, and dependent care FSA
  • Relocation assistance to facilitate your move to Portland (if needed).
