Dark Mode
Innovative Marketing Force Since 2008.
Built quietly for what's next.
Days Since AI Woke Up
"Every disruption sounds like chaos until you hear the signal." — Steven Ayres
Minimally Viable Website
What you see here is intentional.
We're not trying to sell you on our capabilities through a showcase of bells and whistles. If you're looking for polished landing pages and carefully curated case studies, you'll find plenty of those elsewhere.
This is a Minimally Viable Website — designed to start real conversation with the right kinds of clients.
Who the Heck is Rocket55? +
Rocket55 is one of the early digital design firms, founded in 2008 with an integrated approach before that was considered standard practice. We were the first Google Premier Partner and we've been honored as an Inc. 5,000 fastest-growing company six times.
We've been quiet the last few years. There's a reason for that.
Goal #1: Client Value +
Everything we build is measured by its impact on clients. Not awards, not impressions, not our portfolio. Client outcomes.
If the work doesn't make your business better in measurable ways, it's not the work we want to be doing.
AI-Native, Explained +
AI-native means building systems and strategies that assume AI exists — and use it intentionally.
It doesn't mean everything is automated. It doesn't mean we've replaced people with robots. It means we've built the infrastructure, the team, and the discipline to apply AI thoughtfully where it creates value.
Most agencies are still figuring this out. We've been building for over two years.
The Dark Mode Decision +
In late 2022, the signal cut through the noise. We saw what was coming. Rather than talk about it, we went quiet and started building.
Dark Mode is what emerged — a team, a methodology, and a set of capabilities that exist to create real client advantage.
We're not here to hype. We're here to deliver.
What Stays True +
Technology changes. The principles don't.
- Clear communication over complexity
- Measurable outcomes over vanity metrics
- Long-term partnership over transactional work
- Human judgment at the center of everything
These haven't changed since 2008. They won't change now.
Build with intent.
Move with purpose.
You can wait for the change to happen to you, or be a part of shaping what comes next. The traditional hiring model is broken. By the time roles are posted and filled, the moment has often passed. Rocket55 expects significant growth ahead, and we're building connections now with marketers and client-facing professionals who value performance, judgment, and real connectivity.
This isn't about a single open role. It's a call to arms. We believe the smartest people, paired with advanced and thoughtfully applied technology, drive the greatest business outcomes. That's who we're building with.
Who the Heck is Rocket55? +
Rocket55 is an award-winning digital agency founded in 2008. We were building high-performing, great-looking websites before "digital agency" was a category, pairing design with search performance when few understood the connection. A six-time Inc. 5,000 honoree and the first Google Premier Partner, we operate at meaningful scale in complex environments and continue to prepare for what's next.
How We Think (AI-Native) +
AI-native doesn't mean AI-obsessed. It means assuming AI exists and using it intentionally.
Technology alone isn't the advantage. Creative problem-solving, sound judgment, and human understanding are. Whether you're writing code, building strategy, selling, or servicing clients, the work requires turning complexity into something useful, understandable, and actionable.
Used well, AI creates leverage. Used poorly, it creates noise. We expect people to know the difference.
What We Value +
Great work comes from people who can solve problems and communicate clearly, regardless of role.
We value people who:
- Break complex problems into practical solutions
- Translate technical, creative, or strategic work into language clients understand
- Take ownership and move work forward
- Stay curious, test ideas, and improve systems
- Build trust through clear, human communication
Agent-C +
Agent-C is a separate division. It operates quietly, with limited visibility and no public attribution.
This is where we work at the bleeding edge of sales and marketing, amplified by technology. The work is experimental, high-leverage, and discreet. If this is meant for you, we'll let you know. Invite only.
Working Together +
This isn't a place where one skill set wins.
We do our best work when creative problem-solving, technical execution, and clear communication work together. You don't need to be everything, but you do need to understand how your work connects to others and to the client.
What Comes Next +
This page isn't a job listing. It's a starting point.
If there's alignment, get in our system now. When opportunities emerge, we'll already have the context, and we'll move faster together.
