About Play&Co

Play&Co Creative Group is a forward-thinking creative studio dedicated to partnering with visionaries to craft meaningful brand and product designs that inspire positive change. Driven by a commitment to exploration and innovation, the studio combines creative storytelling with thoughtful design to shape better futures for people and the planet. With a playful yet purpose-driven approach, Play&Co values collaboration, iteration, and pushing boundaries to create impactful solutions.

Position Overview

We’re looking for a junior–mid digital designer to join us for an initial 3‑month contract, with the potential to convert to full‑time. You’ll be working on real product experiences — building UI systems, exploring concepts, and shaping how products feel in use. Not just pushing pixels.

What we’re looking for:

  • A good eye for typography, iconography, and component design
  • Solid understanding of responsive design and usability best practices
  • Ability to take direction, explore independently, and present back thinking
  • Interest in motion, interaction, and product behaviour

Nice to have:

  • Social / content asset creation

Key responsibilities:

  • Design intuitive, visually compelling interfaces for digital displays on physical products.
  • Produce wireframes, prototypes, and high‑fidelity designs in Figma
  • Collaborate closely with product managers, developers, and stakeholders to translate requirements into effective design solutions
  • Work within and contribute to existing design systems and component libraries
  • Iterate rapidly based on feedback and project needs
  • Ensure consistency in visual design, branding, and user experience
  • Prepare design assets and specifications for handoff to development

Location:

Applicants must be eligible to work in the USA.

Ideally based in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon / Washington), in a hybrid capacity.

Closing Statement

If you’re someone who can take a brief, disappear for a few days, and come back with something unexpected — we should talk.
