About the role
Deckers Brands is seeking a Lead Color Designer for HOKA Lifestyle Footwear in Portland, OR. You will drive color strategy and execution across lifestyle lines, collaborating with design, material, and merchandising teams to shape cohesive product stories and elevate storytelling through color.
You bring 6–8 years in footwear color design, deep color theory, and strong tools proficiency, with a portfolio that demonstrates trend insight and execution.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
