We're looking for a Staff Brand Designer with a strong point of view and the range to move across editorial design, program branding, merch, print, and live events, sometimes all at once. Same level of craft on a 40-foot event banner as on a Newsroom header. You do your best work when the brief is loose. You move fast, make decisions, and know when you're done. Design isn't just aesthetic to you, it's what makes people feel something. You raise the energy and craft on every team you're on. You'll manage and mentor a small team of designers, set the creative bar, and still ship the work yourself. You're an opinionated tastemaker with conviction in every decision.
Job Responsibility
Own design for Shopify's public-facing editorial properties: the Newsroom, In Stock (Substack), and Engineering Blog
Design infographics, data visualizations, and shareable graphics that make complex information land for executive social and owned channels
Lead design for recurring internal programs and events, Hack Days, BFCM, Intern Cohorts, Startup Foundations/Connections, and beyond
Set and maintain the creative bar for Storytelling & Production
Apply a systems mindset across the team's full surface area
Lead large-scale, multi-stakeholder programs end-to-end across external comms and team-wide initiatives
Manage and mentor a small team of designers
Bring AI tools into your daily creative process
Treat project briefs as minimum floors
Requirements
A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft, a clear point of view, and proven experience leading complex, multi-surface brand work
Deep fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign), with proven experience designing across both physical and digital formats
Proven experience with data visualization and infographics
A track record of owning and evolving design systems, not just operating within them
Active, hands-on experience with generative AI tools, for image generation, concepting, and workflow
High ownership, reliability, and pace
Accountable for the impact of your work
Has led design end-to-end on a major brand, editorial, or comms program, owning the work from brief through delivery
Exceptional design fundamentals
Clear communicator in the work, in the room, and in writing
