- Develop new ways for design work to be shared across studios and with cross-functional partners.
- Attend weekly and bi-weekly Design Studio reviews and help ensure teams are prepared.

- Support creative team projects such as yearly team swag and other studio initiatives.
Ideal Background- Experience working as a designer or within a professional design studio.
- Strong understanding of the design and creative development process.
- Experience supporting Industrial Design, physical product design, consumer hardware, or similar environments strongly preferred.
- Comfortable working with physical prototypes, models, reference products, material samples, and design assets.
- Experience coordinating design reviews, presentations, or creative work for senior leadership.
- Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and presentation/design tools.
- Strong visual eye and enough creative craft to help create, organize, or refine presentation materials.
- Excellent project coordination, organization, and communication skills.
- Comfortable partnering with designers, producers, studio managers, business operations teams, vendors, and leadership.
- Ability to take loosely defined creative ideas and turn them into organized, executable projects.
- Basic working knowledge of creative AI tools and an interest in using AI to improve creative and operational workflows.
What We're Looking ForThis role is a strong fit for someone who enjoys being
behind the scenes helping great designers do their best work. You understand designers and the creative process, but you're equally comfortable coordinating people, preparing leadership reviews, organizing prototypes and assets, and making sure the studio runs smoothly.
