About DSS

DSS Games is a leading creator of irreverent, one-of-a-kind social games. With each game, we strive to “keep it weird” and make our games in the most environmentally sustainable way possible.

Our games are sold nationally through accounts such as Amazon, Target, Walmart, Barnes & Noble, Urban Outfitters, and more. All of our games are actually tabletop games (not video games or apps). We are all about getting people off their phones and into the here and now.

About the Role

This is a full-time, hybrid role for a Junior Production Designer based in Solana Beach, CA . As our Junior Production Designer, you’ll be involved in every stage of making our games—playtesting, prototyping, polishing, and launching them into the world. As part of the Creative team, you’ll help keep the DSS look sharp across products, marketing assets, and everything in between. You’ll work closely with the Product Development, Production, and Marketing teams to translate designs into flawless, print-ready files and eye-catching digital assets that make our games impossible to ignore.

Location: Hybrid (2-3 days/week in person at our Solana Beach office)

Start Date: 2/23/26

Reports To: Graphic Designer + Art Director

Salary: $27-$30/hr

Benefits: Insurance, 401K with up to 4% company match, half-day Fridays year round, 10+ paid holidays per year, company-wide profit sharing
