The Role

At North, product design doesn’t stop at performance — it looks fast, feels intentional, and tells a story before it ever touches the water.

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer to lead the visual identity of our products across Kite and Foil. From kites and wings to boards, bars, foils, and hardware, you’ll define how North products look, feel, and show up in the world — season after season.

This is a purely creative, product-level design role. You won’t be engineering constructions or solving structural problems — instead, you’ll shape graphics, color systems, material expression, and visual storytelling, working closely with technical experts who bring your ideas to life.

Sitting at the intersection of brand, category, and product, you’ll translate North’s brand vision and category strategy into bold, confident, and unmistakably North visual design.

What You’ll Own

Product Visual Identity

• Define and lead the seasonal visual direction for all Kite & Foil products
• Create and evolve graphic systems, design languages, and signature elements
• Build inspiring seasonal frameworks — mood boards, themes, visual narratives
• Make sure every product instantly looks like North, without looking like last season

 Color & Trend Magic

• Own the annual color roadmap across Kite and Foil
• Turn trend insights into timeless, high-performance color palettes
• Balance innovation, recognisability, and factory reality
• Ensure color harmony across products, components, and materials

Product Graphics & Execution

• Design graphics for:
  • Kites, wings, boards, foils, bars, hardware, and accessories
• Create everything from canopy layouts and branding systems to logos, trims, icons, labels, and micro-details
• Deliver factory-ready artwork that’s clear, clean, and production-smart
• Adapt graphic systems to different shapes and constructions — without losing impact

Technical Collaboration (Without Engineering)

• Work closely with Technical Leads and Designers to understand materials and construction
• Read panel layouts, drawings, and specs to inform visual decisions
• Adjust and refine visuals based on technical feedback
• Push creativity while staying realistic about production

 Collaboration & Creative Leadership

• Partner with the Art Director to align product visuals with brand direction
• Work side-by-side with Category Directors to support hero products and commercial priorities
• Act as the visual voice at product level
• Mentor junior designers and raise the overall creative bar

Materials, Print & Real-World Performance

• Design with a strong understanding of print techniques and material behavior
• Collaborate with factories and suppliers on sampling and visual testing
• Solve challenges around stretch, distortion, fading, and durability
• Review samples and pre-production runs to ensure everything looks right — on land and on the water

Who You Are

• 5–7+ years experience in senior product design, product graphics, or a similar creative role
• Deeply visual, detail-obsessed, and brand-driven
• Comfortable designing for technical, performance-led products
• Fluent in turning ideas into clear, production-ready artwork
• Confident collaborating with technical teams — without needing to be an engineer
• Passionate about action sports, outdoor culture, or performance gear (strong plus)

 

 

Who You’ll Work With

• Art Director
• Category Directors (Kite / Wing / Foil)
• Chief Brand Officer
• Technical Leads & Technical Designers
• Product Managers
• Marketing & Creative teams
• Factories, material suppliers, and riders

Why North?

Because here, design is not decoration.
It’s how performance is communicated.
It’s how innovation becomes desirable.
It’s how our products stand out before they ever get wet.

If you love crafting visual systems that live on real products, survive real conditions, and show up in some of the most exciting places on earth — this role is for you.
