Freelance Visual Designer

Chicago, IL

Pixel One is a creative partner to some of the most ambitious teams in AI, enterprise SaaS, and future-defining tech. We collaborate with clients like nVIDIA, Google, Hublot, Autodesk, Epic Games, and Mercedes-Benz to bring bold ideas to life.

We're looking for an elite Freelance Visual Designer to join our visual design team on a three-month contract to cover for an existing designer going on a small health leave. This can turn into a full-time role. Our visual design team delivers branding, web design, motion design, illustrations and more for B2B SaaS clients - and we need someone who can execute at the highest level across all of it.

This is a freelance engagement with potential for a full-time in-house role. It’s a chance to work alongside a world-class design team, partner with leading global brands, and contribute to some of the most exciting projects in tech and culture.

Responsibilities:
- Execute high-quality visual design — Deliver polished brand identities, web designs, marketing assets, and UI components that meet our quality bar and reflect our clients' ambitions.
- Operate within design systems — Work fluently within established visual systems and contribute to evolving them thoughtfully as projects grow.
- Support client deliverables — Prepare work for client reviews, incorporating feedback quickly and professionally while maintaining design integrity.
- Collaborate cross-functionally — Provide clean, well-structured assets to motion designers, developers, and illustrators. Understand how your work fits into the broader production pipeline.
- Uphold studio standards — Follow our SOPs, quality benchmarks, and file organization practices. Your output should be ready for handoff without cleanup.
- Contribute to team rituals — Show up to critique sessions prepared to give and receive direct, constructive feedback. Help raise the bar for the whole team.

Qualifications:
- Minimum 7 years of experience in Visual Design
- At least 2 years specifically in B2B SaaS, ideally from seed-stage or Series A startups
- A portfolio that shows real B2B or SaaS work — brand systems, web, marketing, and/or product visuals
- Advanced proficiency in Figma
- Strong fundamentals: typography, layout, color, and visual hierarchy
- Ability to execute within existing brand systems and push them forward intelligently
- Comfortable working with ambiguity — our clients come to us for clarity, not with it
- Experience managing multiple concurrent projects with different visual languages
- Meticulous attention to detail across all aspects of design and delivery
- Clear, proactive communication — you don't need hand-holding to move work forward

Benefits of Working with us:
??? Organized: You’ll have clarity on what is expected of you, what you need to succeed in your role and grow beyond it.

?? Remote: We’re relatively distributed (all mostly from Canada) and let you work from home as long as you cover PT and EST working hours.

?? Learning and growth: We often pay for courses or any additional learnings a person wants to take. Simply bring it up to your manager. We also conduct weekly elevate sessions that help us sharpen our thinking and design skills (the team loves it).

?? Offsites: We meet in person a minimum of 2 times per year! There are good moments to get the team together, celebrate our accomplishments and align on a unified vision. Past locations: ???? Montreal, ???? Toronto, ???? Barcelona, ???? Greece, ???? Miami, ???? Tulum.

?? Work: You work closely with an elite peer group and directly with CEOs, Founders and other executives that drive revolutionary companies. If you’ve ever thought of creating your own company or love the variety of working with multiple different products, you’ll be right at home.

??????? Cross-disciplinary opportunities: Whether you’re joining the visual design team or the product design team, you’ll get the chance to collaborate with experts in various other fields to help you elevate your craft and discover more opportunities for delight (Motion, 3d artists, illustrations, etc).

???? Team: The team is one of the best in the world. Everyone is very talented in what they do, but more importantly, they know how to play within a team.
