Production Graphic Designer (Packaging + Digital Assets)

OUR MISSION We’re a family\-owned garden seed company on a mission to create self\-reliance through gardening by helping more people grow their own food, reconnect with nature, and build greater security for their families. Design plays a critical role in that mission. Our packaging and digital assets are often the first interaction customers have with our brand, so clarity, consistency, quality, and accuracy matter. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS We’re hiring a detail\-oriented Graphic Designer to support our growing packaging and eCommerce design workload. This is a production\-focused role centered on accuracy, consistency, speed, and follow\-through. The right person takes pride in creating clean, production\-ready files, maintaining organized assets, and delivering reliable work with minimal revisions. This is not a highly conceptual or brand\-strategy role. Success in this position comes from strong execution, attention to detail, and dependable output within established systems and brand standards. This role may begin as a contract position with the opportunity to transition into a long\-term employee role based on performance, ownership, and overall fit. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE You’ll be successful in this role if you: * Deliver production\-ready packaging files with minimal revisions * Complete assigned work accurately and on time * Maintain organized and accessible design files and assets * Create clear, conversion\-focused eCommerce graphics * Apply feedback quickly while maintaining brand consistency * Communicate proactively and flag blockers early * Work independently without requiring constant oversight If you enjoy being the person others trust to “get it right the first time,” you’ll likely do well here. WHAT YOU’LL DO * Modify and prepare existing packaging files for print production * Create and format digital assets for Amazon, Walmart, Shopify, and other eCommerce platforms * Build gallery images, infographics, and marketing visuals for product listings * Maintain and organize a large library of design and product assets * Collaborate closely with the creative and marketing team during scheduled work hours * Implement feedback accurately while maintaining design consistency * Prepare files that are production\-ready and aligned with brand standards TECH \& AI EXPECTATIONS You’re comfortable using modern design tools and staying current with evolving technology, including AI\-assisted workflows that improve speed, organization, and execution quality. At the same time, this role requires a strong foundation in real graphic design principles before AI assistance. AI should be used as a tool to enhance workflow and productivity, not replace design judgment, typography, layout, branding consistency, or production accuracy. We are looking for someone who: * Actively stays current with modern design and AI\-assisted workflows * Understands when AI tools improve efficiency and when they do not * Uses AI to accelerate execution while maintaining high quality standards * Has strong foundational design skills independent of AI\-generated output This is not a prompt\-only design role. Strong design judgment, attention to detail, and production experience are essential. WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR You’re likely a strong fit if you: * Have hands\-on experience preparing print\-ready packaging files * Are highly proficient in Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Creative Cloud * Are detail\-oriented, organized, and dependable * Enjoy working within established systems and brand guidelines * Take ownership of your work and follow through consistently * Communicate clearly and ask questions early when direction is unclear * Can maintain speed without sacrificing quality or accuracy * Have basic gardening knowledge or interest in gardening * Are able to work consistently during agreed\-upon working hours Our values are not aspirational. They show up in how work gets done, how feedback is handled, and how standards are maintained every day. IMPORTANT This role involves a high volume of production\-based design work with deadlines, revisions, and detailed file preparation. Success requires strong organization, attention to detail, and the ability to work consistently within established systems. WHO THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR This role is probably not a good fit if you: * Prefer highly conceptual branding or open\-ended creative direction * Get frustrated working within templates, systems, or established guidelines * Need constant direction or supervision * Struggle with production accuracy or deadlines * Dislike detail\-oriented production work We value clarity, reliability, and consistency over flashy creative work. NICE TO HAVES (NOT REQUIRED) * Experience creating Amazon or Walmart listing assets * Experience with vegetable, flower, or herb gardening * Familiarity with ClickUp or similar project management tools * Basic video editing or videography skills * Experience with creative testing platforms such as PickFu WHO WE ARE We’re a U.S.\-based, family\-run seed company grounded in four core values: * Quality in Everything * Extreme Ownership * Humility in All Things * Constant Improvement Our team is collaborative, supportive, and purpose\-driven. We communicate clearly, work hard, and care deeply about doing things the right way. TO APPLY Please submit: * Your resume * A portfolio of relevant packaging and digital design work We’re looking for someone who values quality, ownership, accuracy, and purposeful work. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Pay: $25\.00 \- $30\.00 per hour Application Question(s): * Please upload or provide a link to a portfolio showing packaging design, print production, or eCommerce design work. * Do you have hands\-on experience preparing print\-ready packaging files for production? * Do you regularly use Adobe Illustrator for packaging, print layout, or production design work? * How do you typically work with established brand guidelines? A) I prefer creative freedom and minimal constraints B) I follow guidelines loosely and adapt as needed C) I use guidelines as a system to ensure consistency and accuracy * Tell us about a time you caught a mistake before it went to print or go live. What was the issue, and how did you catch it? * When priorities or direction are unclear, what steps do you typically take? * How do you currently use AI or modern design tools in your workflow while maintaining design quality and accuracy?
