Envisioner - Design Strategist

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team through all phases of project work — from client alignment and context-setting through insight development, opportunity exploration, and go-to-market support
• Listen with curiosity and an open mind; develop a deep understanding of what truly matters to consumers and clients, setting personal preferences aside to create for the target audience
• Surface and generate ideas when faced with a problem — seeing a breadth of possibilities, practicing structured ideation, extracting ideas from others, and live scribing to capture conversations as they happen
• Communicate the team's vision by distilling experiences to their fundamental form and selecting the right medium — sketches, storyboards, prototypes, video, journey maps — to convey ideas clearly and without distraction
• Translate abstract strategies into tangible, holistic experiences and actionable tools that enable consumers to interact with and respond to a new business strategy or opportunity
• Establish a foundation for design by articulating criteria and guidelines that ensure the future integrity of the experience, and support developers and designers in maintaining that intent through execution
• Actively engage with and apply AI tools and emerging technologies to enhance visualization, ideation, and concept development processes

Requirements

• Degree in Design, Art, Communications, or another creative field
• Excellent visualization skills, including drawing, Adobe Suite proficiency, and working knowledge of Figma
• Demonstrated experience with consumer/user research, ideation, brainstorming techniques, sketching, prototyping, and concept visualization
• Strong client-facing communication, presentation, and storytelling skills; comfortable presenting to and facilitating workshops with senior stakeholders
• Openness and enthusiasm toward AI tools and experimentation; prior experience using AI in a creative, research, or strategy context is a plus
• Willingness to travel approximately once per month, primarily domestic US (occasional international travel may be required)
