Apply for this position

The role

Good design solves problems quietly; great design makes them disappear entirely, and Parker Hannifin needs a Product Designer fluent in both. Sum it up however you want — full-time Product Designer, $85,000 - $128,000, 6 years of Adobe Illustrator, and a stake in Parker Hannifin that only deepens.

Key Responsibilities

  • Bring concepts to life through motion, illustration, or interactive media
  • Map the emotional arc of a launch video, beat by beat, before a frame is shot
  • Translate the Parker Hannifin mission into a thirty-frame story a stranger finishes
  • Choreograph the handoff so nothing remote-friendly gets lost between studio and dev
  • Direct freelancers and Empathy vendors without losing the thread of the vision
  • Convert vague hands-dirty adjectives from a brief into concrete, defensible choices

What You'll Bring

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent
  • A keen eye for quality and consistency in your output
