The opportunity

We're a freelance team in Dearborn, MI that treats a Product Designer like an author, not an asset, with $35,000 - $54,000 and the room to prove it. Few creative roles let you own the whole thing end to end; this junior one in Dearborn does, and it pays $35,000 - $54,000.

Key Responsibilities

  • Drill into analytics to learn which creative actually moved the creative needle
  • Reframe constraints from the freelance budget as the brief's most useful lever
  • Audit existing creative for the remote-friendly inconsistencies nobody flagged sooner
  • Reframe a rejected idea as the seed of the one that finally lands
  • Stitch fragmented brand assets into a system that scales past Manufacturing Plus's next phase

What You'll Bring

  • The humility to revise strong opinions when the data argues back
  • Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment
  • A team player who lifts up colleagues and shares credit
  • The kind of attention to detail that catches what spell-check misses
  • A steady hand when three priorities all claim to be number one
  • Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
  • The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly

Manufacturing Plus exists for one stubborn reason: the creative tools everyone settled for were never good enough, so we rebuilt them from Dearborn, MI. Our MI crew runs on candor, caffeine, and a stubborn refusal to ship sloppy work.

You bring the Color Theory; we bring $35,000 - $54,000, a mentor, a benefits package, and the freedom to grow on your terms in Dearborn.

Our hiring manager is personally reviewing every Product Designer application that comes in.
