Job description

Placement Type:
Temporary
Salary:
$50-60 Hourly
$50 - $60/hr
Start Date:
Jun 27, 2026
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)
