Large Format Print Production & Prepress Specialist

What this role is

You take incoming artwork—good or bad—and turn it into clean, production-ready files that print correctly the first time.

This is a production-first role. Speed and accuracy matter more than “creative.” If your background is mostly web/social design, this isn’t a fit.

What you’ll do

• Preflight and correct customer files (scale, bleed, resolution, color)
• Build layouts for large format graphics (banners, tent panels, walls)
• Run HP Latex workflows (RIP, queue, nesting, material efficiency)
• Catch issues before they hit the printer (this is the job)
• Light layout work when needed using Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and occasionally Adobe InDesign

What good looks like

• You’ve worked in a sign shop or large format environment
• You understand bleed, DPI, scaling, tiling, and color profiles without guessing
• You know when to use vector vs raster—and why it matters at 40 feet wide
• You move fast without creating rework

Non-negotiables

• Strong proficiency in Adobe Illustrator
• Working proficiency in Adobe Photoshop
• Real prepress experience (not just design)
• Experience with large format printing (HP Latex or similar)

Nice to have

• Event graphics / signage experience
• Familiarity with vinyl, mesh, blockout materials
• Basic printer maintenance knowledge

What you won’t be doing

• Sitting in meetings all day
• Designing social media graphics
• Guessing and hoping files print correctly

Compensation & growth

• $25–$28/hr depending on experience
• Full-time, consistent workload
• Opportunity to take ownership of print workflows as we grow

Pay: $25.00 - $28.00 per hour

Benefits:

• 401(k)
• Dental insurance
• Health insurance
• Life insurance
• Paid time off
• Vision insurance

Work Location: In person
