Nothing exists because of design. The transparent aesthetic, the Glyph Interface, the CMF sub-brand โ every product decision starts with design. They recently hired Adam Bates as Design Director, and their design team collaborates closely with Teenage Engineering on industrial design. This is one of the few hardware companies where a designer's vision genuinely drives the product.

6 open design roles
Nothing is one of the most design-obsessed hardware companies on the planet โ Carl Pei built the brand around design as the primary differentiator. A director of software product design here leads the team shaping the OS experience across phones and earbuds that millions of people use daily.
Nothing's software design team creates the distinctive Nothing OS experience โ transparent widgets, dot matrix aesthetics, Glyph interfaces. A senior designer here works on one of the most visually distinctive mobile operating systems in the world.
Another senior software design role at Nothing โ the fact they're hiring multiple senior designers signals a major investment in the software experience. Nothing OS is one of the few Android skins designers actually admire.
The Shenzhen office puts this designer close to where Nothing's hardware is manufactured โ a unique opportunity to work on software design with direct hardware team collaboration. Rare for a design role at a Western-founded brand.
Nothing's social media presence is one of the best in consumer tech โ bold, playful, and unmistakably on-brand. An art director here shapes how a design-forward hardware brand communicates with its community.
Creative production at Nothing means orchestrating the visual storytelling for one of the most distinctive consumer hardware brands. Nothing's launches and campaigns consistently punch above their weight in the design community.
