Design Director, Industrial Design - (Chicago, IL)

At Artefact, we believe industrial design cannot exist in a vacuum. Each connected device – from your couch to your fitness bracelet, the hospital room to your wallet – demands we think about connected experiences. The shape and form of our design impacts the object's meaning as much as the underlying software architecture and the services that can be built on top of it. In a sense, "Post-Industrial Design" becomes the ultimate platform on which to build tangible experiences that connect the physical and digital worlds. As a Design Director you will work in a fast-paced and highly collaborative environment with researchers, developers, and interaction designers, facilitating thinking within the context of design in the 21st Century. Designer Directors at Artefact are hands-on with both project deliverables and client relationships, and set an example for teammates with their dedication to maintaining the highest level of quality.
