At HYFN we take great pride in our people—brilliant, fun minds who challenge each other at the table, and the ping pong table, with fervor. We have no time for office politics, spending it instead brainstorming around the campus or testing our puzzle-solving skills in an escape room (we never said we were conventional). With a team like ours, work and play are one and the same.

We’re a digital interactive agency with offices in Playa Vista, CA and Austin, TX, and we work with some of the largest brands in the world. You’ll have the opportunity to grow your portfolio with high level work for major brands and make invaluable industry contacts. Our open-door policy allows for upward mobility and room for growth.

HYFN is an award-winning group of strategists, human behavior analysts, creators, and amplifiers that thrive on compelling and engaging audiences in meaningful ways. With a quality of service that's second to none, we create partnerships to design and develop cross-platform solutions that meet the demands of an evolving digital culture and diversified media landscape.

A solutions-focused agency offering strategy, UX, design, development, and ad operations, we've found that regular collaboration multiplies what our team can do. As a subsidiary of Nexstar Media Group, Inc., we thrive on big ideas but also understand that the smartest concepts are supported by measurable results. Launching hundreds of projects a year, we work in lockstep toward the best solutions possible.
