In brief

**Overview** This role is for a Senior Designer at Somewhere, a brand platform focused on acquiring, scaling, and revitalizing consumer brands in the U.S. The company aims to build a $100M+ portfolio of performance-driven brands and seeks individuals who are detail-oriented, take ownership, and want to build lasting products. The Senior Designer will join the creative team to shape the visual expression of a growing portfolio of consumer brands. It is a highly hands-on role requiring exceptional visual taste, strong digital craft, and a flexible creative mindset, with a major emphasis on generative AI. The work environment is described as a fast-paced startup where priorities can evolve, briefs may not always be perfectly defined, and designers are expected to bring judgment, curiosity, ownership, and solutions. The position is remote, open to candidates in SA/LatAm/PH, with a work schedule of 9am-5pm EST. The salary is market related. **What you will do** Key responsibilities include: * **Creative Across the Portfolio:** Developing creative across various digital touchpoints such as brand, e-commerce, campaigns, paid social, email, product launches, and landing pages. This involves translating existing brand identities into fresh creative while maintaining consistency, and taking projects from early ideas to polished final execution. * **Generative AI and Image-Making:** Extensively using generative AI throughout the creative process, including early exploration, concept development, image generation, and finished creative. This entails directing, prompting, iterating, compositing, and retouching AI-generated work to ensure it is sophisticated and commercially usable. * **Tools and Craft:** Working primarily with Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, confidently moving between collaborative digital workflows and high-craft execution. The role also requires managing multiple brands, projects, and priorities simultaneously without compromising work quality. * **Cross-Team Collaboration:** Partnering closely with creative, brand, growth, retention, e-commerce, and product teams, and contributing references, ideas, creative perspectives, and thoughtful critique to the broader creative team. **Requirements (from the original advert)** * A strong portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual taste, typography, composition, and digital design craft. * Professional experience designing for consumer brands within DTC, CPG, lifestyle, beauty, wellness, food and beverage, or adjacent categories. * Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, including strong experience working within collaborative design systems and digital workflows. * Strong hands-on experience with generative AI tools and workflows. * Strong image-making skills, including compositing, retouching, manipulation, and visual refinement. * An understanding of how brand systems translate into e-commerce and performance-driven digital environments without becoming generic performance creative. * The ability to work independently, make confident creative decisions, and clearly communicate the thinking behind them. * Comfort in a fast-moving startup environment, where priorities can shift and ambiguity is part of the process. * The flexibility to move between different brands, aesthetics, audiences, and creative challenges. * Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. * A collaborative mindset and the confidence to give, receive, and act on creative feedback. * Strong English communication skills. *Nice to Have (not required):* * Packaging and print production experience, particularly within CPG. * Experience with motion, e-commerce platforms, or emerging creative technologies. **Who should apply** The ideal candidate is described as a senior-level designer with a strong visual point of view and the judgment to recognize what makes something good. They do not fit neatly into a single design specialty, being curious, adaptable, visually obsessive, and exceptionally resourceful. This individual should be equally comfortable building a system in Figma, developing imagery through generative AI, refining it in Photoshop, adapting a brand across digital touchpoints, and solving creative problems they haven't encountered before. They thrive in the speed, variety, and ambiguity of a startup and multi-brand portfolio, maintaining a consistently high bar for taste, craft, creativity, and attention to detail. This role is for someone who already sees AI as part of the creative process, comfortable directing, prompting, iterating, selecting, compositing, retouching, and refining AI-generated work into commercially usable creative, and who can bring judgment, curiosity, ownership, and solutions without always waiting for instructions. **Deadline** Not specified **Reference** Original posting: https://recruitcrm.io/apply/17924305082760072484Ghg?source=Jobspage&new=yes Source: somewhere

    Position:Senior Designer Location: Remote: SA/LatAm/PH Work Schedule:  9am-5pm EST Salary:Market Related About The Company We are a brand platform on a mission to acquire, scale, and revitalize. ​​​​​​​A brand platform that acquires and scales consumer brands About the Role We're hiring a Senior Designer to join our creative team and help shape the visual expression of our growing portfolio of consumer brands. This is a highly hands-on role for a designer with exceptional visual taste, strong digital craft, and a flexible creative mindset. You'll move between brand design, campaigns, e-commerce, paid media, email, product launches, and broader digital experiences, across multiple brands. A major part of this role is generative AI. We're looking for someone who already sees AI as part of the creative process, not simply a shortcut for producing images. You should be comfortable directing, prompting, iterating, selecting, compositing, retouching, and refining AI-generated work into sophisticated, commercially usable creative. We operate with the speed and flexibility of a startup. Priorities evolve, briefs aren't always perfectly defined, and designers are expected to bring judgment, curiosity, ownership, and solutions rather than wait for instructions. What You'll Do Creative Across the Portfolio ● Develop creative across brand, e-commerce, campaigns, paid social, email, product launches, landing pages, and other digital touchpoints ● Translate existing brand identities into fresh creative while maintaining consistency and recognizable brand codes ● Take projects from loose briefs and early-stage ideas through polished final execution Generative AI and Image-Making ● Use generative AI extensively throughout the creative process, from early exploration and concept development through image generation and finished creative ● Direct, prompt, iterate, composite, and retouch AI-generated work until its it's sophisticated and commercially usable Tools and Craft ● Work primarily across Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, moving confidently between collaborative digital workflows and high-craft execution ● Manage multiple brands, projects, and priorities simultaneously without compromising the quality of the work Cross-Team Collaboration ● Partner closely with creative, brand, growth, retention, e-commerce, and product teams ● Contribute references, ideas, creative perspectives, and thoughtful critique to the broader creative team Who You Are You're a senior-level designer with a strong visual point of view and the judgment to recognize what makes something good, not just how to make something polished. You don't fit neatly into a single design specialty, and that's the point. You're curious, adaptable, visually obsessive, and exceptionally resourceful. You're equally comfortable building a system in Figma, developing imagery through generative AI, refining it in Photoshop, adapting a brand across digital touchpoints, and solving a creative problem you haven't encountered before. You thrive in the speed, variety, and ambiguity of a startup and multi-brand portfolio, and you keep a consistently high bar for taste, craft, creativity, and attention to detail the whole way through. What We're Looking For ● A strong portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual taste, typography, composition, and digital design craft ● Professional experience designing for consumer brands within DTC, CPG, lifestyle, beauty, wellness, food and beverage, or adjacent categories ● Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, including strong experience working within collaborative design systems and digital workflows ● Strong hands-on experience with generative AI tools and workflows ● Strong image-making skills, including compositing, retouching, manipulation, and visual refinement ● An understanding of how brand systems translate into e-commerce and performance-driven digital environments without becoming generic performance creative ● The ability to work independently, make confident creative decisions, and clearly communicate the thinking behind them ● Comfort in a fast-moving startup environment, where priorities can shift and ambiguity is part of the process ● The flexibility to move between different brands, aesthetics, audiences, and creative challenges ● Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously ● A collaborative mindset and the confidence to give, receive, and act on creative feedback ● Strong English communication skills Nice to Have ● Packaging and print production experience, particularly within CPG (a strong plus, not required) ● Experience with motion, e-commerce platforms, or emerging creative technologies Why Join ● Real scope, real variety. You're not designing for one brand. You'll shape the look and feel of a growing portfolio, with the autonomy to push the work forward. ● AI at the center of the craft. Generative AI isn't a side experiment here. It's part of how We are creative every day, and you'll help define how that's done well. ● Your work ships and matters. What you make goes straight into campaigns, launches, and customer touchpoints, and directly shapes how our brands are perceived. ● Grow with a platform that's just getting started.
