Product Designer - Rapptr Labs

Brand & Product Designer (Remote, Part-Time)

About Rapptr Labs

Rapptr Labs is a NYC-based digital product agency. For 15 years we have designed and built mobile and web products that people actually use, including two Google Play Apps of the Year and apps serving more than 10 million monthly active users. We have shipped over 50 products across consumer, B2B, and enterprise. We treat every client's product like it is our own.

The Role

We are changing what design looks like at Rapptr. AI now handles a large share of standard interface production, so we are hiring for the part AI cannot do well, which is original visual thinking. We want a designer who is first and foremost a strong graphic designer and artist. You should be able to create brand identities, logos, and custom graphics from a blank page, and then use AI tools to move quickly through the standard product UI work that used to take up most of a designer's week.

You will work directly with our team and clients to shape how products look and feel across iOS, Android, and web. This is a part-time role, and hours can scale as the work grows.

What You'll Do

• Create original brand identities, logos, and visual systems for our clients and for Rapptr itself
• Design custom graphics, illustration, and art direction that make products feel distinct
• Use AI design and image tools to produce standard UI work quickly and to a high standard
• Take app and web interfaces from concept through high-fidelity design across iOS, Android, and web
• Partner with engineers so designs ship accurately
• Present work in client sessions and turn feedback into stronger design
• Build and maintain design systems and component libraries

Requirements

• A portfolio that shows original brand and visual identity work, not just UI screens. We want to see logos, brand systems, and custom graphics that you created from scratch.
• Strong graphic design and artistic craft across typography, color, and composition
• Fluency with AI design and image generation tools, along with a real point of view on how to use them well
• Solid product design ability across mobile (iOS and Android) and web
• Proficiency in Figma
• Strong communication skills, since you will work directly with clients
• Availability during core US business hours

Nice to Have

• Motion and animation design skills
• 3D or generative art experience
• Experience owning brand from strategy through execution
• Familiarity with React Native or Flutter constraints
• Previous agency or consulting experience
• Experience with user research and testing

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation
• Remote role, work from anywhere
• A role where your creative range is the point, not an afterthought
• Direct collaboration with experienced engineers and product managers
• A flexible part-time schedule
