We’re looking for a Senior Industrial Designer based in Colombia who can bring innovative ideas to life—merging creativity, technical expertise, and real-world production knowledge.

What You’ll Do
- Design and develop retail displays, branded environments, custom furniture, and event activations from concept to build.
- Create 3D animations and walkthroughs that allow clients to experience activations virtually before they’re built.
- Collaborate closely with carpenters, engineers, fabricators, and project managers to ensure designs are structurally sound, practical, and aligned with production capabilities.
- Recommend materials, finishes, and construction methods that balance creative intent, durability, and cost-efficiency.
- Problem-solve build challenges (e.g., re-engineering vehicles for mobile activations or complex structural elements).
- Stay up-to-date on the latest in 3D rendering, animation, AI design tools, and fabrication technologies.
- Participate in client-facing creative meetings in English and support cross-functional teams with presentations, technical drawings, and production files.

- Skilled in rendering and animation software such as Twinmotion, Unreal Engine, Blender, KeyShot, or equivalent.
- Strong understanding of fabrication methods, CNC cutting, prototyping, and mixed materials (wood, metal, acrylic, lighting).
- Able to balance conceptual creativity with production practicality.
- Comfortable working in English and Spanish, especially for client presentations and design reviews.
- Bonus: Experience with project management, production planning, or working directly with manufacturers.
Why Work with Us
- Join a creative cross-border team that produces standout work for global brands across top airports and retail spaces.
- Work remotely from Colombia with the flexibility to lead projects and influence creative direction.
- Build a portfolio of one-of-a-kind activations, displays, and experiential builds seen by millions of travelers worldwide.
