Orbit is a detailed tool suite enabling community first brands to identify, understand, and engage with their community members: “Mission Control for Your Community.”
In January of 2021, I started working for Orbit as a freelancer and later joined the team full-time as the Senior Brand Designer in June of the same year. Throughout my time at Orbit, I actively contributed to a wide range of marketing, events, sales, product, and internal initiatives. I provided a range of design services, including illustration, branding, and art direction, to different areas of the company, ensuring successful and impactful project delivery.
The following selected works are some of my favorite highlights from 2021 to February 2023.

Gravity Magazine
Gravity is the field guide for product communities—a print and digital digest from Orbit that explores the theory and practice of building and scaling product communities. I led the creative effort and oversaw all aspects of branding, illustration, layout, and design.
Year in community
Similar to Spotify Wrapped, users were given a unique in-app experience celebrating their community wins for 2022. I worked on the art direction, illustration and design.
Constellation report
One of my first illustration and design projects for Orbit, after joining the team full time, the Constellation Report charts the state of community tools and was printed as a booklet.
“Jarod was responsible for many beautiful, highly impactful projects at Orbit and added a level of polish to everything we did internally and externally. He is super creative and can also do what it takes to get the job done on time, even with many projects and deadlines.”
