Role Overview

The Visual/Print Designer role centers on producing polished visual work across print and other static formats. The position may also involve illustration and conceptual development, especially where dense or technical information needs to be communicated clearly and attractively.

Key Responsibilities

The designer will create layouts and artwork for a variety of visual communication materials, including books, magazines, newspapers, websites, television assets, packaging, posters, publications, reports, and signage. The work includes planning the graphic treatment, deciding how copy and visuals should be arranged, and choosing type styles and sizes that fit the available space and support readability.

Additional duties include building artwork manually or with design software, maintaining consistent design standards, drawing sample layouts, reviewing final compositions, and recommending improvements where needed. The role may also involve preparing instructions for production teams, assembling final files for print, and, when required, creating rough sketches, illustrations, television sequence drawings, or layout photographs. In some cases, the designer may also support still or animated graphic formats for television broadcast material.

Skills and Working Style

This position suits a designer who values clean execution, strong visual systems, and clarity in communicating complicated subject matter. Precision, organization, and a production-ready mindset are important, particularly when working under brand or design system constraints.

Requirements

The ideal candidate should have a strong portfolio that demonstrates print design, typography, and layout expertise. Illustration ability, whether conceptual, technical, or explanatory, is also preferred. A solid understanding of visual hierarchy, communication design, and brand systems is important, along with strong attention to detail and organizational discipline.

Advanced proficiency in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop is required. Candidates must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. This is an on-site role.
