    As a Lead Digital Designer, you'll help shape that research into actual concepts, working alongside strategists on client insights and turning them into interfaces people want to use. This isn't a production-only seat. You'll be in strategy conversations from the start.

    What you'll do:

    • Design responsive websites and digital experiences grounded in audience research
    • Build and evolve visual brand systems, including logo and identity work
    • Present concepts directly to clients and defend your design decisions
    • Mentor junior designers as the team grows
    • Collaborate with writers and strategists on creative concepts, including new business pitches

    What you bring:

    • 7+ years in UX/web design, less if the portfolio proves you can do the job
    • A portfolio with a range of styles, not one look repeated
    • Experience mentoring other designers
    • Comfort designing for mobile and responsive web
    • Experience building brand systems, not just working inside someone else's
    • A second strength beyond web design, illustration, typography, motion, or front-end code

    Open to remote, based in the US.
