Description

A Little About Us

Oats Overnight is changing the way people eat breakfast, and since launching in 2016, our high protein spoon-free oatmeal has been enjoyed by over 1,000,000 customers.

We are scaling quickly in both direct-to-consumer and retail with the goal of becoming a household brand.

We have end-to-end control of all phases of the business, producing and fulfilling the product in-house, which is extremely rare for companies our size.

This allows us to create new flavors and products quickly and is a tremendous advantage for our brand - we're able to give customers a behind-the-scenes look at what we do, highlighting our people and process in content.

Being vertically integrated also enables us to incorporate customers directly in the development process.

A Little About How We Do Things
Starting with our founder/CEO and extending to multiple teams across all departments, many of us come from non-traditional backgrounds.

This is a superpower - we are not stuck in traditional industry patterns, but instead leverage extreme rationality and first principles thinking to solve problems and find new opportunities.

This is a special place to work, and our team is what makes it that way; this is why every employee is also an owner.

As such, there is a high level of expectation for all team members.

What We're Looking For

Someone that can partner and influence at all different levels
Ability to handle multiple priorities and navigate in a fastmoving environment
Expectations will be clearly set, but an ambitious approach to the work is key
Ability to artfully convey even subtle or complex messages clearly, as appropriate for the topic and audience.
A relentless drive to get things done.
Curious and entrepreneurial mindset.
Enjoys working in a highly collaborative and supportive team environment
Flexible, willing, and quick to learn new processes, new technology, and new ways of thinking

What's The Job?

We are looking for a versatile and creative Visual Designer to join our dynamic design team to support various initiatives.

This role is the perfect opportunity for someone who is a jack-of-all-trades looking to do more UX design that inspires, informs and captivates our target audience.
