About the role

As a Design Director on our team, you’ll help shape how Ro shows up in the world. You’ll concept, design, and craft campaigns that feel bold, human, and unmistakably ours. This role calls for a hands-on creative leader with deep experience in design, art direction, and visual storytelling — someone who can think conceptually, execute beautifully, and stretch what healthcare can look and feel like.

You’ll join a team of creative craftspeople driven by purpose. We care about making healthcare feel modern, accessible, and gutsy. We build empathy for our users, challenge assumptions, and design with honesty.

We’re looking for a design leader who’s ready to build data-informed brand campaigns that connect emotionally and perform powerfully. Someone who moves fast, experiments boldly, and believes simplicity is the ultimate expression of confidence.

This role is an individual contributor working alongside the broader design organization and growth partners. Please include your portfolio or Figma file to be considered.

What you’ll do

• Be hands-on . You’ll concept and design alongside the team. At Ro we are all makers.
• Elevate the brand. You’ll evolve Ro’s visual brand world, ensuring it remains flexible, scalable, and future-facing while staying true to us.
• Results-driven mindset . We work hand-in-hand with growth and analytics teams to harness data insights, building a performance-oriented culture that prioritizes achieving tangible results together.
• Champion creative excellence . You’ll set the visual bar across all brand work — campaigns, product marketing, CRM, landing pages, paid, OOH, and TV — ensuring every piece ladders up to a cohesive, modern, and differentiated brand experience.
• Collaborate across teams. You’ll work daily with creative, growth, product, and marketing leaders to align strategy, priorities, and execution.
• Shape campaigns . You’ll define the art direction and visual strategy for top-of-funnel campaigns, working closely with copy partners to bring bold ideas to life across channels.
• Mentor through craft . While this is an individual contributor role, you’ll inspire and guide other designers by example — modeling great design thinking, sharp taste, and thoughtful feedback.
• Advocate for inclusivity . You’ll continuously prioritize diversity, inclusion, and representation in your work, bringing empathy and intention to each design choice you make.

What you’ll bring

We welcome qualified candidates of all races, creeds, genders, and sexuality to apply.

The target base salary for this position ranges from $173,000 to $203,000, in addition to a competitive equity and benefits package (as applicable). When determining compensation, we analyze and carefully consider several factors, including location, job-related knowledge, skills and experience. These considerations may cause your compensation to vary.

Ro recognizes the power of in-person collaboration, while supporting the flexibility to work anywhere in the United States. For our Ro’ers in the tri-state (NY) area, you will join us at HQ on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
