About VSCO
For years, we've helped photographers create their work. Now we're building what comes next.
VSCO exists for photographers. Not as a side feature, not as an afterthought, but as the whole point. We build the connected system photographers rely on, and we've spent over a decade earning the trust of a global creative community that takes the craft seriously.
Photography is at an inflection point. AI is reshaping what's possible for creative work, and that's where our mission shines. VSCO is building the full photographer's workflow: from creating and editing your work, to delivering it to clients, to running your business. All of it built thoughtfully, with photographers leading the way. We believe the future of photography tools creates more space for creativity, handling the busy work so photographers can focus on the craft.
If you care about craft, community, and what technology can unlock for creative people, this is the work. We're a mission-driven and focused company where your work ships quickly, is meaningful, and reaches tens of millions of people worldwide. You'll have a real say in what we build and how we build it. We hire people who don't wait to be asked, naturally connect the dots, care about the quality of what they ship, and believe the best outcomes come from building together.
We're looking for a Staff Product Designer to join our design team and lead high-impact design initiatives across our portfolio. You'll own products end-to-end — from strategy and problem framing through interaction design, visual craft, and delivery. This role will be responsible for designing our next generation of photography business management tools and the AI frameworks that drive them. This is a product-defining role where you'll be a primary design voice, working closely with product, engineering, and data to shape strategy, define what gets built, and drive measurable outcomes.
We design and prototype with AI-native tools like Cursor, Claude, and v0 — and we move fast. We're looking for someone already working this way, or genuinely eager to lean in, while holding a high bar for craft.
