The Role

We'relooking for aGlobalDesign Directorfor Shark Hometo define what Shark looks like — and where it goes next.

Thisisn'tjustan execution role. You shape product identities, build visual systems from scratch, and architect creative platforms that drive demand across the full funnel.

You'reas comfortable sweating the smallest pixel as you are concepting a campaign platform from scratch — and you understand that bothmatterequally. You bring sustained creative rigor to everything you touch: the willingness to go back to an idea, pressure-test it, refine it, and push it further until it's genuinely right. That kind of discipline — applied consistently across a high volume of work — is what it takes to succeed here.

You'refluent in modern creative tools, includingChat, Claude andnode-based canvas for image and video creation likeFigmaWeave or a similar platform, using them to accelerate exploration and hold a high bar for taste and originality.
