About PopSockets
PopSockets started with a simple idea — make phone life better — and grew into a global brand built on self-expression. Our mission is to become an Eternal Positivity Machine: an enduring global brand that makes an increasingly positive impact on the health and happiness of the planet.
We make grips, cases, mounts, wallets, and wireless chargers — everyday objects that people customize, collect, and show off. As we grow into a lifestyle brand, design is the thread that connects function and self-expression across every product, every drop, and every partnership. We care about craft, taste, and doing right by people and the planet.
About the Role
We're looking for a Senior Designer with a strong point of view and an even stronger eye. This is a hands-on, craft-first role for a designer who lives in the details — type, image, color, layout — and can raise the visual quality of everything they touch.
You'll own work end to end: concepting, art direction, and execution across brand campaigns, product storytelling, packaging, social, and retail. You'll set the visual bar for your projects and be a trusted reference for teammates on what "good" looks like.
This is a senior individual contributor role, not a management or creative-director position. We're not looking for someone who has already run a department — we're looking for an exceptional maker who is still deeply hands-on, has real taste, and wants to grow their influence through the work itself.
What You'll Do
- Concept and design across brand, campaign, product storytelling, marketing content, and social — from first sketch to final, production-ready artwork.
- Set the visual tone for your projects: typography, photography direction, color, composition, and overall aesthetic. Ie. Create good vibes with solid concepts.
- Use AI-gen tools and processes to rapidly develop concepts from sketch to finished content and animation. Bonus if you’re already deeply experienced with these tools (ie. Nano-banana, GPT2, Seedream, Midjourney, etc.). We will work with you to develop and refine a process for doing this consistently and with a high bar of aesthetic output.
- Extend and evolve our visual identity system, keeping it consistent and fresh across channels and partners.
- Translate briefs and business goals into design that is both beautiful and effective, and be able to articulate the thinking behind it.
- Present work with clear rationale, take feedback gracefully, and iterate quickly without losing the idea.
- Collaborate closely with marketing, product, packaging, and external agencies and partners.
