Join the collective
We’re recruiting artists, piercers, producers, and hospitality specialists who balance precision with poise. Travel globally, work residencies, and create permanent experiences for planners and brands who expect more.
The standard
Every crew member is selected for artistry, hospitality, operations mindset, and cultural alignment. We’re a traveling studio, not a tattoo vendor line-up.
Fine-line mastery, diverse portfolio, willingness to co-create flash and adapt to brand guidelines.
Calm presence, intuitive guest care, multilingual and ADA awareness preferred.
Comfort with structured timelines, planner communications, and compliance protocols.
Respect tattoo lineage, collaborate generously, and support crew wellbeing on tour.
Open pathways
Most team members join as contract talent or residency specialists. Full-time offers extend to crew leads who support multiple cities.
Fine-line tattooers and piercers with BBP/first-aid certification, travel readiness, and residency experience.
Show callers, logistics captains, compliance strategists, and planner liaisons who keep activations running smooth.
Concierge-level hosts managing queues, aftercare rituals, VIP suites, and multilingual guest support.
Photographers, videographers, scent and sound designers supporting residencies and tours.
How we invest in you
Training covers BBP, ADA, hospitality scripts, cultural sensitivity, and planner communications. Quarterly labs keep skills sharp across flash, piercing, scent, and wellness.
Led by Emerald, Oz, and Cedar Medical.

Mental health and bodywork funded each year.
