Senior Digital Designer, Digital + Brand
US-based, remote position
Real Chemistry is looking for a Senior Designer, Digital & Brand who knows great design isn’t just about making things look good. It’s about creating work with clarity. This role is for a designer who obsesses over the details and keeps asking “what if?”
Your mission:
Help us create work that people remember.
We’re looking for a Senior Designer, Digital + Brand who knows great design isn’t just about making things look good. It’s
about creating work with clarity. This role is for a designer who obsesses over the details, keeps asking “what if?” and can
move fluidly between digital experiences and brand expression.
Your mission is to create standout digital work that connects with people — all in service of making the world a little
healthier.
Who you are:
You’re design-obsessed and deeply invested in craft. You live and breathe creativity and care about quality. You have a
strong foundation and know the essentials inside and out: hierarchy, pacing, scale, composition and typography. You
understand how to use grids and when to break them. And more than shaping how something looks, you think about how
people move through the experience, engage with it and respond to it.
You also know how to translate brand ideas across formats. You’re comfortable developing visual identities, extending
brand systems and designing polished print materials with the same level of rigor you bring to digital work. You
understand that the best designers don’t think in channels — they think in systems, stories and how a brand shows up
consistently everywhere.
You bring your own ideas to the table, but you also take direction well and use feedback to make the work better.
And yes, your biggest weakness might be that you won’t stop until it’s right.
What you’ll do:
• Bring ideas to life through strong visual thinking, storytelling and execution across digital and brand
touchpoints.
• Design campaign websites, microsites and landing pages that are visually compelling and designed to perform.
• Develop and extend brand identities across campaign and corporate expressions.
• Design with user behavior in mind by thinking through how people engage.
• Think beyond the static layout, you’ll design for responsive behavior across desktop, tablet, and mobile.
• Create page layouts and content systems that guide users through a clear story.
• Translate strategic and verbal ideas into ownable visual territories, identity directions and design frameworks.
• Create flexible visual systems that maintain consistency across web, social, print and experiential applications.
• Contribute to design concepting and development, not just execution.
• Collaborate closely with writers, strategists, UX partners, developers and creative leads.
• Stay immersed in design, branding, digital and AI trends.
• Be a student of the craft: experiment with it, master it, enjoy it and help protect it.
Qualifications:
• A compelling portfolio highlighting expertise in digital design, branding, typography and foundational design
principles across both screen and print.
• 5+ years of experience in digital, brand or integrated design roles.
• Strong experience designing websites, landing pages and responsive digital experiences.
• Experience developing brand identities, extending visual systems and applying them across a range of
touchpoints.
• Understanding of digital best practices, including accessibility, responsive behavior and build feasibility.
• Expertise in design software (Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, etc.) and familiarity with AI design tools.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly present design thinking and rationale.
• Comfortable collaborating with developers and speaking build language.
• Working knowledge of HTML and CSS, with the ability to design in a way that is informed by real-world web
behavior and constraints.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly present design thinking and rationale.
• Experience creating prototypes.
• Bonus: Experience in agency environments.
