AI at SharkNinja

At SharkNinja, we’re building an AI-native culture. We’re not waiting for the future; we’re creating it. Our people are expected to experiment boldly, adopt new tools, and continuously raise what’s possible to create meaningful impact for our consumers. If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in.</div>About SharkNinja

At SharkNinja, our purpose is to positively impact people's lives in homes around the world. We create 5-star products that solve real problems — and bring them to market with the same level of ambition.

Our creative team operates at the intersection of product, brand, and performance. We are consumer-centric, digging for insights and iterating until we find what truly resonates. We are product-led, where our innovation is the story. We are idea-driven, building platforms and systems, not just campaigns. And we are increasingly AI-enabled, using new tools to move faster, explore more, and raise the bar.

This is a team that values speed, ownership, and craft — and expects its leaders to be both strategic thinkers and practicing makers.

The Role

We're looking for a Global Design Director for Shark Home to define what Shark looks like — and where it goes next.

This isn't just an execution role. You shape product identities, build visual systems from scratch, and architect creative platforms that drive demand across the full funnel. You work upstream — with product, insights, and marketing — influencing how products are positioned, named, and brought to life before briefs are written.

You think in systems, not assets. Platforms, not one-offs. Speed and taste that scales across every touchpoint and performs in the real world.

You're as comfortable sweating the smallest pixel as you are concepting a campaign platform from scratch — and you understand that both matter equally. You bring sustained creative rigor to everything you touch: the willingness to go back to an idea, pressure-test it, refine it, and push it further until it's genuinely right. That kind of discipline — applied consistently across a high volume of work — is what it takes to succeed here.

You're fluent in modern creative tools, including Chat, Claude and node-based canvas for image and video creation like Figma Weave or a similar platform, using them to accelerate exploration and hold a high bar for taste and originality. You lead and grow a design team while staying hands-on in the work — setting the standard by doing it yourself.
