Senior Designer

Overview

Role Brief: Senior Designer

Engagement

• 30 hours/week, Monday-Friday, part time hours each day, W2
• Fully remote, must work PST hours, local to Portland preferred
• 3- 6 months with possible extension
• Talent must provide their own laptop for this assignment
• Collaborates directly with our Design Director

Agency context 

Our agency client is a small, senior, embedded brand and growth team. Their anchor client is a large sports tech company (13+ year relationship), with growing work in sports tech, performance, and outdoor categories. The hire complements our Design Director — not a junior to scale his hours, but a peer-level creative who can carry their own work end to end.

Must-haves

• Senior-level designer (8+ years ideal)
• Expert in Figma (primary working environment)
• Strong across Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign at minimum)
• Portfolio showing brand and digital work — not just deliverables, but evidence of design thinking

Strong pluses

• Sports marketing background, especially sports tech (Garmin, Strava, Zwift, Whoop, Peloton, Hyperice, Therabody, etc.)
• Endemic categories adjacent to that world: outdoor, performance, fitness, cycling
• Motion design / After Effects for light animation in social and digital
• Portland-based or PNW

Nice-to-haves

• Experience working inside small senior teams or embedded agency models (vs. large agency pods)
• Comfort moving between brand systems work and campaign execution
• Some exposure to web/UI design in Figma (since our site rebuild and client digital work both lean that way)
