Our Commitment to diversity and inclusion:
We know good design is informed by a diversity of perspectives and lived experiences. Whether we’re designing apps, rolling out a campaign, performing a rebrand, or anything else, what we create has a stronger user experience and enables a more equitable society when created by a diverse team of creatives and project managers.
We also know the field of design, like many fields, is unfortunately lacking in diverse voices. We hope to help amplify the voices of Black and Brown, Indigenous, Queer, disabled, and other under-represented and underinvested groups in the field of design.
If you identify with any of these, we encourage you to apply. Your voice and perspective is crucial.
