jobs in the wild.

Since the start of 2026, we've been reimagining what's next beyond traditional product reviews and recommendations. That work has evolved into a broader effort to create consumer experiences as part of CNN's growing New Business team. We're at a really exciting stage. We've done a lot of the foundational work, and now we're ready to bring on a thoughtful designer to help turn those ideas into products that people can actually use. If you enjoy navigating ambiguity, collaborating across disciplines, and helping shape products from the ground up, you'll have a meaningful impact on what we build next. The ideal candidate brings at least two years of professional product design experience, has worked closely with cross-functional teams, and has a portfolio that demonstrates strong UX thinking, visual craft, and problem solving. If that sounds like you, I'd love to see your application through the official posting. And if someone comes to mind, I'd appreciate it if you shared this with them. One final note: I expect to receive a lot of applications and messages, so I may not be able to respond to everyone personally. That said, I'll do my best to give every application and portfolio the thoughtful consideration it deserves. https://lnkd.in/gWkMM_hq

1. Founding Editor 2. Creative Associate 3. Founding industrial designer If you are good at what you do and feel passionate about what we are building, say 👋🏻 to us! Application form pinned in the comments.

Here's the brief: own the visual grammar of the brand at scale. Our website and app, our stores, our marketplaces, our campaigns - everything that's meant to make someone stop and look. One unified, ownable and premium aesthetic across all of it. I'm looking for someone who thinks in big ideas, has impeccable taste, and sweats the details. Someone who can build a brand world that cuts through the sameness of D2C, and make work that looks beautiful and actually converts. For the right person, this should be a rare and exciting opportunity. You get your fingerprints on the DNA of a brand consumers already love, at a moment it's scaling fast. So what you make actually shapes where we go. You'll stretch across static, motion, film, web, app, and retail, building a visual world across all of it, alongside a creative team that's as sharp as it is fun to work with. The must-haves: – 10+ years across agency + D2C / fashion & lifestyle – A portfolio strong in both static and motion – Big-idea orientation, real mastery of visual craft – Comfort with speed, high volume, iteration, and ambiguity If you've built a brand world people remember -  in fashion, beauty, personal care, electronics, or D2C of any category  - and this intrigues you, I'd love to meet and go deeper. Apply at the link below (in comments), or DM me. And if someone you know fits the bill, please tag them. PS - random website screenshot as an example of some imagery we think we are doing quite well already. And want to get much much better at. Also demonstration of the insane consumer love we are seeing for the brand - out of stock across sizes and colors on something we launched this month :)
