Our work tackling some of the world’s toughest challenges takes us all over the world—from communities across Asia and Africa to neighborhoods in our own backyards.

We are hiring a Senior Talent Associate in our New York studio. Reporting to the Director of Talent & HR, the Associate will manage recruitment across all three IDEO.org studios (San Francisco, New York, and Nairobi, Kenya) and will perform other essential HR generalist responsibilities related to onboarding, offboarding, compliance, learning and development, employee relations and engagement, benefits administration, and applicant tracking system and HRIS maintenance.

We are currently seeking a Marketing & Communications Lead to join our team (based in either New York or San Francisco). As a core member of IDEO.org’s Global Communications Team, you will craft and implement communication strategies that help us tell compelling, timely stories about our work across a variety of channels. Equal parts brand strategist and project manager, you’ll collaborate with teams across the U.S. and Kenya to envision, design, and execute on marketing initiatives that build momentum around the value of design in the social sector.

We’re currently looking for an Interaction Design Lead to join our New York studio. As part of a multi-disciplinary design team, you’ll work hand-in-hand with our partner organizations and the communities they serve across the U.S. and around the world—identifying opportunities for design, imagining new possibilities, and bringing those ideas to life through engaging digital experiences.

Our ideal candidate has experience in the full life cycle of digital design—from concept to prototyping to execution, and a healthy dose of curiosity. Part researcher, part strategist, and part maker, in this role you might be sketching wireframes for a new digital service one day, hosting a co-design workshop the next, and wrapping up the week building scrappy digital prototypes to test in the real world.

You may have built your career as a UX designer, creative coder, digital media artist, or software designer, but by now you’re comfortable flexing your skills in a number of ways, and leading teams through the design process.

We are currently seeking a Partnerships Lead to join our Nairobi studio. In collaboration with the Director of Partnerships, you will be responsible for identifying new opportunities, pursuing the right partners, facilitating great transitions for our teams who work on these engagements, and maintaining long-term relationships. You will support design teams on the ground and ensure that the solutions we create lead to real and lasting impact in the lives of the people we’re designing with.

In this role you'll have the opportunity to go deep and build expertise on a broad set of issues, such as health and well-being for adolescent girls, rural livelihoods, and women’s economic empowerment. You’ll gain deep exposure to the design process, ramping up quickly through on-the-ground fieldwork. You’ll also have opportunities to showcase the studio’s work to a wider audience, where you’ll represent this way of working through creative storytelling.

The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker, strong writer and communicator, and detail-oriented. You’re a quick learner and collaborative - ready to roll up your sleeves and join a team that’s helping to bring human-centered design to some of the world’s toughest challenges.
