Hello, we’re THRIVE
We’re a group of creative professionals raising the bar on Informed Design. We design human-centered brands, products, services, and experiences for leading companies around the world.
Why should you work with us?
1) Your skills will be nurtured
Every organization talks about development and evolving your career, but at THRIVE, it’s a part of the job description. We welcome your talent and your skills and want to give you the support and framework to nurture your abilities. We also want you to be able to do everything you’ve wanted to do, whether that’s something focused in design, branding, strategy, or something entirely separate.
2) Your skills will be used in a variety of ways
Our clients come to us because they have a problem and they want THRIVE’s help solving it. The exciting and challenging part is that no problem is just alike, which means our team members — and hopefully you, if you decide to bring your talents to THRIVE — work on a variety of projects for a variety of clients. This keeps the work fresh and stimulates innovation.
3) You’ll be surrounded by talented, passionate people like you
We’re growing fast, which also means that there’s lots of growth opportunities at THRIVE. But the other factor that helps our team members grow is the amount of sheer talent everyone is surrounded by on a day-to-day basis. In addition to top-tier talent, the other thing our team possesses is a serious passion for their work, which ultimately stems from a passion for designing a world that helps people thrive everywhere. If this is something you’re interested in doing, THRIVE might be the perfect place for you.
At THRIVE, we're in the business of making the invisible tangible. We believe that what the eyes don't see, the heart can't feel. In our hyper-connected world, every product battles for a space in consumers' lives, making the role of industrial design more crucial than ever. In this contracted role, we are seeking a Senior Industrial Designer who can harness the power of cutting-edge design to forge meaningful experiences that extend beyond mere functionality. If you're someone who thrives on innovation, understands the deep impact of design on consumer relationships, and is driven by the challenge of transforming strategic insights into actionable product solutions, we want you on our team.
About You:
You are someone who sees beyond the shape of objects, understanding that each curve, color, and material tells a story. Your design philosophy is grounded in creating experiences that not only meet functional needs but also touch the heart and mind. You are as strategic as you are creative, capable of leading with insight and inspiring with innovation. With a diverse portfolio that spans industries, including a keen interest or experience in medical device design, you are ready to take on challenges that satisfy your intellectual curiosity and make a real impact.
We're especially keen to connect with individuals or small agency owners interested in forming a long-term contract partnership with us.
