  • Strong collaboration skills with designers, creatives, and strategists, balancing technical constraints with creative vision
  • Applicants must be willing and able to work on-site in New York, NY
  • Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for visa sponsorship

Nice to have:
