About the Role
This is the role for the designer who doesn't want to be boxed in. One day you're designing a product feature, the next a landing page, the next a social campaign or a print piece for an event. You'll move fluidly across brand, product, growth, and communications — wherever the highest-leverage design work is.
At Superpower, designers do work across many channels and departments. If you have exceptional taste, you shouldn’t be boxed into a channel. This role is about multiplying that capacity — bringing the same range, taste, and speed to a growing surface area of work.
We call this "founder mode" for design: you're in the weeds, you're shipping, and you're proactively finding the places that need the most help.
What You'll Do
Design across product, brand, growth, and communications — wherever the biggest need is on any given week
Create product UI, landing pages, email campaigns, ad creative, social content, presentations, and event materials
Move between strategic thinking and pixel-level execution daily
Proactively identify design gaps and fix them — no one needs to assign you work
Collaborate with engineers, growth, clinical, and leadership directly
Contribute to and extend the brand system and product design system
Ship fast. We believe action produces information — your first version doesn't need to be perfect, it needs to exist
Give and receive direct feedback. Radical candor is how we raise the bar together
What You Bring
3–6+ years of experience across multiple design disciplines — you've done brand, digital, product, or some combination
A portfolio that shows range: product screens, campaign work, web design, and maybe something unexpected
Strong fundamentals: typography, layout, color, hierarchy, and interaction design
Comfort with ambiguity and context-switching — you can reprioritize quickly without losing quality
Speed and craft. You don't treat them as opposites
Proficiency in Figma. Familiarity with prototyping, basic motion, or front-end code is a bonus
Self-directed and proactive. You ask "how would I act if this were my company?" and then do it
Genuine care about health, wellness, or human performance
Nice to Have
Front-end development skills (HTML/CSS, React, Webflow)
Motion design or video editing skills
Experience at an early-stage startup where you wore many hats
Illustration, 3D, or photography skills
Experience in health, wellness, or mission-driven companies
