We give our team the resources they need to get their work done without having to sit in a cubicle or stuffy office.

Although we are remote, team members are expected to be available online during regular business hours, and there is occasional travel for events and trade shows.

Brilliant is in its second decade as a fully remote company and is one of the most respected agencies serving consumer lifestyle brands with a specific focus on products, brands, and services for families including baby and maternity, toys and games, tech, housewares, and food.
