Product Creative Designer & Illustrator

What You'll Be Doing

• Design and illustrate a diverse range of Collectibles assets — including avatar decorations, profile effects, nameplates, and profile frames — across a variety of styles: characters, visual effects, objects, and environments.
• Conceptualize, storyboard, and execute illustrations that communicate design concepts clearly within product constraints and user experience goals.
• Design in-app marketing layouts for Shop that feel native to the product and visually consistent with the broader Collectibles aesthetic.
• Partner closely with game publishers and vendors to art direct and deliver high-quality assets, providing clear direction and feedback aligned with Discord's brand guidelines and technical specifications.
• Collaborate with Product Designers, Engineers, and PMMs to ensure creative assets are purposeful, performant, and well-integrated within the product interface.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously, owning asset delivery end to end and communicating proactively on timelines and priorities.
• Give and receive constructive feedback in critiques and live reviews, iterating toward the strongest outcome.

What You Should Have

• A portfolio demonstrating expressive, high-craft illustration and graphic design work across a range of styles — ideally including work that shipped within a product or established brand ecosystem.
• 2–4 years of design or production experience at an in-house creative team or agency, ideally in tech, gaming, or entertainment.
• Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, with a strong eye for composition, color, typography, and visual hierarchy.
• Experience working within brand guidelines and design systems to produce work that feels native to an established visual identity.
• Experience working with external partners, vendors, or publishers — including providing creative direction, managing feedback loops, and coordinating deliverables.
• Comfort presenting creative concepts and articulating design decisions to cross-functional partners.
• Ability to take feedback, iterate, and deliver production-ready assets that meet both creative and technical requirements.

Bonus Points

• Experience with animation or motion design, and an understanding of how static illustration and design assets translate into motion.
• Proficiency in Figma.
