Want to join us?

We value clear over complicated; pictures over words; stories over explanations; results over accolades. Creativity is at the heart of everything we do, from the work that delights our clients down to our all-staff meetings with weekly themed backgrounds.

What it’s like to be part of the Bluewave team

We are constantly pushing ourselves to deliver the highest-quality design and clear and effective stories. Quarterly “Chompathons” allow the design team to explore creative solutions to hypothetical problems, culminating in lively discussions about the creative process, design trends, and new ideas to present to our clients. We believe that everyone on our team has valid insight – from our Design Director to our Intern.

We know that inclusivity is a business imperative – our work only improves as we learn from our team’s diverse backgrounds, abilities, and interests. As visual storytellers, it’s our duty to reflect an inclusive world in our work. And a privilege to give back to our community when we can – through a Giving Campaign with matching funds to pro-bono communications work.

Where we're located

Our staff is fully virtual now, but we have home bases in the San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, and India.
