    Who we are

    99designs is the world’s global creative platform that makes it easier for customers and designers to work together to create designs they love. Our mission is to champion creativity to create opportunities for people around the world. Founded in 2008, 99designs has grown from a small, online forum into a worldwide community of talented designers that is now the go-to solution for businesses, agencies and individuals.

    Co-founded by serial entrepreneurs Mark Harbottle and Matt Mickiewicz (SitePoint, Flippa, Tweaky, Hired!), and backed by Accel Partners (who have also invested in Facebook, Slack, and Dropbox) and Recruit Strategic Partners, 99designs is a dynamic company with offices in Oakland, Melbourne, and Berlin. We’re a global team that benefits from bringing together the experiences and viewpoints of a wide range of talented folk around the world.

    About working with us

    At 99designs we care deeply about diversity and inclusion. We welcome applicants of all types, from all backgrounds that have the skills and experience we're looking for because we know our ability to design and create products for all our customers is largely a sum of the diversity and empathy of our team.

    We encourage our engineers to help us find new ways to improve our product. We care about quality and strive to keep our systems modular and our code clean. We constantly refine our processes and tools with the aim to make developers happy, efficient and able to focus on building great products. We love shipping, continuous delivery is in our DNA; anyone on the team can deploy to production, and we do so many times a day.

    We love our employees and go to great lengths to make sure they know it! Perks include: a well-stocked kitchen for breakfast, lunch, and snacks, free weekly catered lunches, happy hours, health & wellbeing programs like a free local gym membership and more!
