Senior Designer, Web + Brand (Contract )

Instrument is a digitally native design and technology company built to help brands unlock their full potential. Since 2005, our team of makers, thinkers, and storytellers has partnered with leading brands like Google, Nike, Uber, ŌURA, and Eventbrite to craft digital experiences that create impact and drive results.


Unlike traditional agencies, we don’t just design—we build. Our work lives at the intersection of taste and technology, powered by curiosity, thoughtful curation, and a commitment to delivering the most fitting solution for every brief. We bring this to life across three core offerings: Brand, Marketing, and Product.


As a member of our freelance network, you’ll collaborate with our teams to bring bold ideas to life—whether launching new brands, building digital products, or shaping experiences that move people. We welcome collaborators from all backgrounds and experiences who share our curiosity, creativity, and care for craft.


We believe great work comes from diverse perspectives and shared purpose. If you’re passionate about learning, experimenting, and making work that matters, we’d love to hear from you.


We’re looking for a Freelance Senior Designer to join us on a fast-moving project focused on branding and a web experience for an upcoming event. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in highly expressive visual systems and can translate bold creative direction into thoughtful, production-ready design.

You’ll be working within an established creative direction—cyberpunk-inspired with glitch art influences—and helping bring it to life across both brand and digital touchpoints.
