"I actually think the most successful businesses are the ones where people think like that. If you think ‘where is the gap in the market for me to make a lot of money?’ and spend your life like that the chances are you’ll fall flat on your face. You have got to have a passion for what you are doing."

Disrupto is hiring a designer in New York!

My friend Jack is hiring designers for his super awesome company. If you know anyone who is a badass designer, I would definitely recommend Disrupto.

jackcheng:

We’re hiring:

We asked ourselves what our ideal design job would be, and this is what we came up with:


You

  • ambitious, eager to learn and can work quickly
  • like surrounding yourself with intelligent, capable, hardworking people
  • enjoy thinking about (and building!) the future of entertainment and media
  • comfortable with taking a more startup-like approach to design: putting stuff out there, seeing what sticks and iterating on it based on real-world feedback
  • interested in working on a diverse range of products that live on multiple devices and platforms (mobile, tablet, web, 10-foot UI, iOS and Android, to name a few)
  • enthusiastic about personal growth and self-improvement
  • maybe you’re fresh out of school and want to start your own company someday
  • or maybe you’re a graphic/print designer who’s looking to branch out into digital, user-experience and interaction design

Us

  • small (but growing!) tech-centric design and development studio in New York
  • we do everything from product strategy through to UI/UX and visual design and application development
  • we work on our own products and also soon-to-be-launched projects for media, entertainment and technology companies

The Gig

  • start out on a freelance, project basis
  • if you like us and we like you, then we can go steady
  • work out of our new Soho office (which we’re moving into soon) shared with other startups
  • flexibility to work from home when appropriate


Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be New York? 
Yes. Meetings happen here, and things are moving too quickly for us to spend too much time coordinating remotely. Plus, we’re big believers that you learn a lot more when you get to work with others in person.

What if I’m not looking for something long-term?
We’d prefer someone interested in a full-time gig, but feel free to contact us anyway—we’d love to add you to our rolodex for future projects. 

What kind of work do you guys do?
In the past we’ve built and launched Steepster, an online community for tea drinkers, though the projects we’re working on right now are of a different ilk and haven’t seen the light of day yet. We’d love to tell you more in person.


How to Apply

Send a brief email to jobs@disrupto.com with a portfolio or links to things you’ve worked on and are proud of.

I’m pretty psyched to announce I’ll be having my first solo show in San Francisco, entitled SOMETHINGMISTAKENFORNOTHING, next month at the Curiosity Shoppe! The title of the show comes from a constant theme throughout the works, which deals with the idea of discardness within human interactions. There will be a bunch of new works as well as two prints, and a zine cataloging most of my more recent work.
Exhibition Dates: August 27th – September 26th
Opening Reception: Friday, August 27th, 6-9 PM
If you’re in the area, please stop by and say hi!Hope everyone is doing awesome!

If you’re in San Francisco, definitely check this out! It’ll be badass. Also, the artist is really good a foosball
