Job Description: We’re looking for a freelance Brand Designer to support our growing portfolio of brands at a billion dollar consumer packaged goods (CPG) company.

This is a great opportunity for a designer who understands the balance between brand expression and performance—someone who’s fluent in both visual design and conversion-focused UX for DTC and retail channels.

- Create scalable design systems for PDP modules
- Apply a mobile-first mindset, ensuring designs are optimized across devices and retailers
- Implement feedback from performance data and user insights to continuously refine PDPs for conversion
- Deliver clean, organized Figma files and specs for dev teams or external partners
- Tailor creative for key retailers (Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc.) based on platform best practices and technical requirements
- Edit and manipulate product imagery as needed, including retouching, background removal, and color adjustments
- Create storyboards for short-form motion content and collaborate with internal partners on production
- Develop simple motion graphics (GIFs or animated content) to support storytelling and engagement
- Collaborate with internal teams including copywriters, designers, and marketing leads to ensure brand alignment across all assets
- Apply established brand guidelines while identifying opportunities to evolve visual expression
- Stay current on eCommerce trends, platform updates, and content innovations to inform creative decisions
- Manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously while maintaining high quality standards
- Support the development of occasional print or presentation materials when needed
- Explore and utilize AI tools and design technologies that increase workflow efficiency or creative effectiveness
Requirements :
- 5+ years of experience in digital, e-commerce, or marketing design
- Proven ability to design high-performing PDPs, landing pages, or e-commerce modules
- Strong eye for visual design, layout, typography, and brand nuance
- Experience designing for mobile-first, responsive experiences
- Proficiency in Figma with comfort working in design systems
- Bonus: Familiarity with retailer requirements and PDP best practices (e.g., Amazon, Walmart, Target) and/or Shopify
- Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign; Premiere or After Effects a plus)
- Strong grasp of layout, color theory, and typography with a high attention to detail
- Comfortable working within structured brand guidelines, while bringing fresh thinking to asset development
- Effective communicator who is proactive, organized, and open to feedback
- A collaborative teammate who thrives in fast-paced environments and adapts quickly to shifting priorities
- Curious and tech-forward, with a desire to experiment with AI and other tools to boost design performance
