We are always accepting applications from independent contractors of all relevant backgrounds and/or related work experiences who are motivated to create significant impact through human centered design innovation.
We require that all independent contractors have an EIN number (not their own social security number) for their business, as well as business insurance.
If you meet this criteria and have a background in Research and Design Strategy, Business Strategy, (Digital) Product Strategy, Visual Design, Content Design, Interaction Design, Program Management, or other design or innovation-related experience, we would like to hear from you.
