Monks
We are makers. We create because we are curious, and we believe that the best way to prove an idea works is to make it real.
As the Creative Director, Interactive & Retail Experiences, you are the architect of the "magic moment"—that split second when a user touches a device and understands exactly why they need it. Reporting to the GCD of Emerging Experiences, you will own the digital manifestation of Google hardware and software in the physical world.
Your domain is the screen, but your context is the store. You will lead the creation of world-class interactive demos for global retail environments (Google Store, Best Buy, etc.) and event activations. You are a hybrid creative leader: part UX architect, part product designer, and part storyteller, capable of translating complex AI features into intuitive, playful, and "Google Grade" interactions.
