We’re looking for a hybrid Art Director & Senior Visual Designer to lead and execute the visual expression of our brand across all platforms. This is a hands-on, high-impact role: you will be the sole in-house designer, leading the development of creative assets while also acting as a strategic partner to internal teams and our external creative agency.

You’ll be responsible for both creative direction and end-to-end execution — from conceptual thinking to delivering visuals that perform across digital, physical, and commercial touchpoints.

This is a great opportunity for a creative who loves to both craft and collaborate, and who thrives in agile, multidisciplinary environments.

About us:

At Ostrichpillow, we believe Rest is not a luxury — it’s a human need. Since 2012, we’ve been designing tools that help people slow down, recover, and feel well. From our iconic Napping Pillow to our 3D Eye Mask, everything we create is meant to support better rest in everyday life.
We’re a small, multicultural team of curious minds and design lovers, working together to build products (and a culture) that put people first. Our values guide us — simplicity, autonomy, curiosity, and a quiet belief that less is often enough.
We're not a finished story. We’re in motion — and we’re inviting others to help us write what comes next.

-Partner with leadership and marketing to shape brand storytelling and campaign narratives.
-Translate strategic briefs into compelling visual concepts that align with the brand ethos.

Design Execution (Hands-on)

-Independently design a wide range of assets: campaign visuals, product mockups, newsletters, social media content, Amazon/e-commerce graphics, landing pages, print materials, and more.
-Create and maintain high-quality design systems, templates, and asset libraries for scalable creative output.
-Produce high-impact visuals under tight timelines, balancing speed with attention to detail.

-Provide design support for product launches, seasonal campaigns, internal brand presentations, and more.
-Ensure and approve final creative work (internal and external) to ensure brand integrity and executional excellence.

Commercial & Channel-Specific Content

-Design content tailored to the needs of different sales channels: Amazon, B2B retail, marketplaces, e-commerce, and offline retail.
-Understand platform-specific requirements and adapt visuals accordingly — including A+ content, infographics, hero images, and promotional materials.
-Deliver marketing materials that drive performance while staying true to the brand aesthetic.
-Support the sales team with visually polished decks, toolkits, and promotional assets.

Requirements:

-Comfortable communicating and presenting visual ideas to stakeholders across teams (marketing, product, commercial).
-Experience working with external creative partners (agencies, freelancers, production vendors).
-Experience in planning or supporting product photoshoots and managing visual asset creation.
-Highly autonomous, organized, and self-directed, with the ability to manage multiple priorities at once.
-Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, or a related field (preferred, not required).

Why Work With Us?

We’re not selling a polished culture — we’re building one with intention.

If you believe rest matters, and you’re ready to build something meaningful with others, this could be the place for you.
