About This Role

This is a cross-pillar, staff-level individual contributor role reporting to the Senior Director of Product Design, Discovery. You'll be Faire's creative quality owner — the person who thinks about the holistic visual and experiential identity of our product and programs, and ensure they are shipped at high quality in-product and cohesive to our customers out of product. You are staffed centrally.

You move across the entire product surface, partnering with pillar leads, pod designers + engineers, system designers + engineers, and creative stakeholders to define and raise the visual bar. You'll lead high-ambiguity, high-visibility creative problems from 0 to 1—the kind that shift how Faire feels for every retailer and brand who uses it. We're looking for candidates open to working in San Francisco, CA or New York, NY.

What You’ll Work On Rebranding and evolving flagship programs like Faire's Insider membership—rethinking visual identity, hierarchy, and touchpoints across PDPs, product tiles, and marketing surfaces Defining the visual language for Faire's emerging AI product suite—naming, color, iconography, and UX differentiation Evolving holistic systems work—color strategy, iconography, illustration framework, interaction patterns, motion standards—that affects every pod and every surface, and partnering with design platform to encode those decisions into scalable standards that get to every designer and engineer Partnering with the design systems team to encode creative decisions into scalable standards that reach every pod, every surface, every engineer — and supercharging that team's impact in return.

What We'Re Looking For

Exceptional visual and creative craft—you continually raise the bar Meaningful experience working within digital product environments—you know how to partner with product managers, engineers, and product designers, and you understand how brand decisions land in shipped UI Comfort with ambiguity and cross-functional complexity — you can drive your own projects, build alignment across stakeholders, and know how to make things happen in a large organization Strong communication and influencing skills—you don’t need direct authority to move things forward Systems thinking—you see individual creative decisions in the context of the whole product and contribute to/highly collaborate with the design systems team Creative Director backgrounds are welcome if paired with demonstrated experience translating brand and visual identity work into meaningful customer impact and business outcomes.
