Graphic Designer - Packaging Design

Hi, we’re Speks — a Brooklyn-based product design company creating premium sensory tools for teens and adults. We’re growing quickly and looking for a talented designer to help shape how our products show up on shelves around the world.

We’re currently seeking a full-time Graphic Designer focused on packaging design to join our creative team. In this role, you’ll primarily design retail packaging for our products while also supporting the creation of retail PDQs and in-store displays that help bring the brand to life in stores.

This is a full-time, in-office role based in DUMBO, Brooklyn.

What You’ll Do:

• Packaging design. Design retail packaging across multiple product lines, including layout, typography, color, and visual storytelling.

• Structural packaging development. Contribute to the structural design and development of packaging formats, working through concepts, mockups, and dielines to create packaging that is both functional and visually compelling.

• Dielines & production files. Create and manage dielines, structural layouts, and production-ready artwork for packaging across various formats including boxes, trays, tubes, and blister cards.

• Packaging systems. Develop scalable packaging systems that work across product families, colorways, and SKUs while maintaining brand consistency.

• Retail PDQs & displays. Design retail-ready PDQs, countertop displays, and other in-store merchandising units that present products effectively at retail.

• Print production. Prepare press-ready files and collaborate with factories and vendors to ensure packaging and displays are produced accurately and efficiently.

• Cross-functional collaboration. Work closely with product development, operations, and creative teams to move packaging from concept through sampling and mass production.

What You Bring:

• 5+ years of graphic design experience, with a strong focus on packaging design

• Experience with structural packaging design and development

• Strong understanding of print production, packaging materials, and dielines

• Experience designing retail PDQs, countertop displays, or other in-store merchandising

• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)

• Excellent typography, layout, and visual hierarchy skills

• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple SKUs and revisions

• Strong communication and collaboration skills

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

This is a full-time role in our bright DUMBO office, complete with great views, snacks, and an endless supply of Diet Coke. You’ll join a small creative team that cares deeply about thoughtful design and the satisfaction of seeing your work on shelves around the world.

We offer competitive salary, full benefits, and a 401(k).

Please send a resume, portfolio, and one interesting fact about yourself that’s not on either of those.

We’re hiring right away and excited to hear from you.
