About the role

Senior Designer to define and grow visual systems, art direction, and conceptual design for Apple Services content experience. Focus on typography, layout, composition, visual storytelling, and incorporating creative technology (creative code, AI, generative tools, motion) as core mediums. Collaborates with Art Directors, Creative Director, producers, cross-functional partners, and external agencies to build and scale systems across languages, markets, and platforms.

Responsibilities

  • Define and evolve visual systems and design frameworks that scale across projects, markets, and platforms.
  • Provide art direction across campaigns and initiatives, ensuring visual consistency and a strong point of view.
  • Use code, AI, generative tools, and motion design to prototype and develop new creative ideas.
  • Partner with Art Directors and the Creative Director to shape concepts and iterate on design solutions.
  • Work with cross-functional partners inside and outside design — engineering, production, and technical teams — to build and scale systems.
  • Anticipate and solve for creative and technical challenges as systems scale across languages and markets.
  • Prepare for creative reviews by organising files, prototypes, and presentation materials clearly.
  • Guide ideas from concept to final execution, ensuring work meets both creative and business objectives.
  • Operate with autonomy and independence in the role as a senior member of the team.
  • Ensure final deliverables — typography, layout, motion, and system components — are flawless and consistent.
  • Continually seek opportunities to refine design thinking and improve workflows.

Qualifications

  • 5–7 years of relevant graphic design experience, ideally within a creative, cultural, digital, or technology-focused environment.
  • A portfolio demonstrating strong graphic design fundamentals, art direction, and design systems work.
  • Strong command of visual communication and graphic design principles, with exceptional attention to craft and detail.
  • Deep understanding and appreciation of typography, photography, motion, illustration, and visual storytelling.
  • Hands-on experience with creative technology — AI, generative tools, or creative coding — as part of the creative process, not just an interest in it.
  • Demonstrated mastery of Adobe Creative Suite and familiarity with a broad range of design and motion tools.
  • Bilingual skills in both Japanese and English (minimum business level of reading, writing, and spoken in either language).
  • Experience developing and scaling graphic design systems across multiple languages, markets, and cultural contexts.
  • Art direction experience on campaigns, editorial, or brand initiatives.
  • Comfortable working through an iterative creative process, embracing experimentation, feedback, and refinement.
  • Ability to work effectively with global teams across time zones, markets, and different working practices.
  • A genuine passion for music, culture, and contemporary visual communication.
