flytedesk is the largest network of campus advertising in the U.S. and we build the technology advertisers use to access it at scale!

Wait, what? How do you do that?

Brands spend billions trying to reach millennials, but since 63% block ads online and 57% don’t have TV, that’s become really difficult to do effectively. We aggregate all the advertising on college campuses and make it easy to buy in a single platform. We operate across every media channel – we work with 400 college newspapers, have billboards on 500 campuses, and reach college students a dozen other ways.

Damn. That makes sense. That didn’t exist?

Nope, flytedesk was founded by CP+B and NBC alum (former journalists!) who were just as dumbfounded. Advertising on college campuses looks almost the same as advertising in the “real world” but the audience is way more valuable and it’s completely inaccessible.

We’re a Techstars ’15 company backed by Steve Case, Chuck Porter, Alex Bogusky, and the founders of SpotX. We reach 85% of U.S. college students on behalf of Nintendo, Trojan, Dr Pepper, Jimmy Johns, Adult Swim, and L.L.Bean..

Hehe, Trojan…

Oh, please, grow up. This is what we work on for Trojan, we’re very proud of that.

Touché́, what’s it like at flytedesk?

We work really hard and are obsessed with building flytedesk. We don’t sugarcoat the startup lifestyle, it’s not glamorous and it’s not for everyone. We take our work seriously, but ourselves, not so much. We’re grateful for the opportunity we have and on birthdays we bring in Julian the Clown.

A clown! I’m in, what do you want me to do?

Our head of product does everything right now. We need someone to work with her and act as a liaison between sales, operations, and development teams to gather project requirements and deliver tested and accurate end products. This person will also lead the design lifecycle from discovery to wireframes and prototypes to testing and implementation, and finally lead the QA phase before implementation for assigned projects.

Sweet, you should have seen me in art class in 4th grade!

That’s nice but this is the big leagues. We’re looking for an experienced designer with strong communication skills, an extreme attention to detail, and a zealousness for organization. Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign are obvious and it’s a big plus if you’ve used Axure and have an understanding of both front-end web development and back-end capabilities.
