We are seeking a highly skilled Graphic Designer with strong expertise in Adobe Illustrator to support two fast-growing, creative brands: a screen printing company and a nationally touring live music production.

This role blends technical production design with creative concept development, requiring someone who can move seamlessly between preparing print-ready artwork and designing compelling visuals for apparel and marketing campaigns.

• Create print-ready vector artwork and perform color separations for screen printing (spot color, simulated process, etc.)
• Design custom apparel graphics from scratch for clients across multiple industries
• Develop original merchandise designs for concerts and live events
• Produce high-performing ad creatives for Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and other digital platforms
• Build mockups and proofs for client approval and internal use
• Prepare and organize files for production (proper layering, trapping, registration, etc.)
• Collaborate with sales, marketing, and production teams to ensure designs meet both creative and technical standards

<Requirements>

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Illustrator (non-negotiable)
• Strong understanding of screen printing processes, including separations and print limitations
• Experience designing for apparel and merchandise
• Solid portfolio demonstrating both creative design and production-ready work
• Experience creating social media ad graphics with a focus on engagement and conversion
• Ability to work quickly without sacrificing detail or quality
• Strong typography, layout, and composition skills

<Preferred Experience>

• Background in screen printing or apparel decoration
• Experience with Photoshop for mockups and raster manipulation
• Familiarity with classic rock / music branding aesthetics
• Experience creating designs for live events, concerts, or tours
• Knowledge of print-on-demand or e-commerce workflows

<What We're Looking For>

• Someone who understands the difference between “looks good on screen” and “prints perfectly on a shirt”
• A designer who can balance creativity with production efficiency
• A self-starter who can take direction but also bring strong original ideas to the table
• Detail-oriented and highly organized with files and workflows

Join our team of creative professionals dedicated to pushing the boundaries of visual storytelling! We value innovation and enthusiasm. This position offers an exciting opportunity to grow your skills while making a meaningful impact through compelling graphic design.
