How you work

This part matters as much as your portfolio. We're looking for someone who:

Shows up prepared.

You come to briefs and check-ins having done the work ahead of time. You don't wait to be told what you need.

Communicates early and often.

In a remote environment, silence creates problems. If something's unclear, off-track, or taking longer than expected, you say so before it becomes an issue.

Genuinely curious

You're always learning; new tools, new approaches, new ways to make the work better. You bring that energy to the team.

Challenges the work

We want designers who push back when something isn't landing and bring ideas to the table. Your job isn't to produce files, it's to help us deliver the best possible outcome for the client.

Comfortable with ambiguity

Projects shift, priorities compete, briefs aren't always perfect. You figure it out, flag what matters, and keep moving.

Seeks out feedback

You're not waiting for a formal review. You ask, you listen, and you apply it.

Makes the details someone else's non-problem

Files are organized. Assets are named. Work is delivered ready to use. The people you hand off to shouldn't have to clean up after you.
