Enjoy a good design challenge. Take complex ideas, and craft them into simple clear ideas and a visually appealing story.
Follow brand principles, and participate in the evolution of our style and brand.
Tackle the balance of a dynamic, yet sometimes ambiguous environment. As we are and always have been a distributed organization, it’s important to raise your hand if you need help or clarification.
Embrace your design creativity in other mediums, we all work together to design whatever comes up, swag, events, ads, slides.
Actively participate in team critiques; we all have a voice here.
What you bring
1+ years of web design experience, with a strong portfolio at a creative agency or on in-house team

Deep love of (and perhaps slight obsession with) clean, cohesive design, typography, color, and layout
A passion for orderly design outside of traditional design programs, e.g., Google docs can still be challenging and beautiful
Possess time management skills and have the ability to work within an estimated timeline to meet deadlines
Some flexibility with working hours (within reason), recognizing worldwide time zones can be a challenge!
Some experience with remote collaboration
High emotional intelligence, ability to handle constructive criticism and competing ideas
Nice to have:
Experience working with a design system
Figma experience
User research experience
Experience and interest in SEO, web analytics tools
What we bring
Leadership that cares
An experienced and seasoned approach to remote work; we’ve been operating with a mostly remote staff for seven years
A dynamic brand that encourages clean, effective design, but knows when to have fun
Yearly, international, company-wide meetups (when we're not experiencing a pandemic)
An open work environment where your voice is encouraged
Lots of opportunities for creative freedom and exploration
An open work environment where your voice is encouraged
A small but passionate team of designers
Because we’re a global team, occasional meetings outside of your working hours
Pet-friendly office ;)
