Brand Designer

You’re a sharp, strategic designer with 3–5 years’ experience and a portfolio that reflects a penchant for systems thinking and typographic elegance. You’ll likely join us from a studio, ad shop, or in-house environment where you’re happy and comfortable designing deeply for a few brands, distributing your energies equally across a myriad of mediums, creative asks, and yet-to-be uncovered opportunities. This position will primarily entail designing for an iconic family of Houston-based brands—a longstanding client who values design thinking and creativity across all touchpoints. (Hint: if you love to eat, very good news for you.) You’re hungry for a tight-knit team, a rainbow roster of projects, and the freedom to share your voice and your skills to shape something special—as much in the brands you touch as in the place you work.

What you bring:

• A point of view

• Mastery of Adobe Creative Suite and motivation to continually monitor and master best practices, across print and digital applications

• Appreciation for tactility and an analogue approach—you recognize the best thinking often begins with pencil and paper

• Experience with print and environmental production techniques and a desire to expand these skill sets (experience in web design is a plus!)

• Ditto for type and layout

• Strong verbal/written communication skills

• Ability to juggle multiple projects autonomously and respond to direction with grace and good humor

• Rigorous standards for your work, from concept to kerning, preparation to presentation

• Passionate, whatever-it-takes attitude to get the job done right and with respect for all involved

• Appreciation for process, research, organization, and efficiency

• Love of collaboration and ability to provide and receive constructive critique

• Innately optimistic outlook and hunger to learn and grow

• Affinity for studio pets, pastries, big windows, and big thinking

• Bonus points for experience or expertise in motion design software

What we bring:

This is a full-time, salaried position (commensurate with experience) including medical benefits, PTO, a company-sponsored retirement account and profit-sharing program, and offsite team summits for foodie fun and designerly bonding. (We let the writers come, too.) This hybrid-format position is based at our Houston studio, with remote workdays Mondays and Fridays.
