The Role
You don't follow the moodboard, you set it, and that instinct is what makes you the Graphic Designer StartupEdge has been quietly waiting for. Count it up: 4 years, $57,000 - $81,000, a creative charter, and the kind of StartupEdge growth that compounds.
Key Responsibilities
- Wring a campaign system from an one-line creative tagline
- Coordinate with external agencies, freelancers, and print vendors
- Deliver pixel-perfect, production-ready files to engineering and print teams
- Compose social cuts that read clearly with the sound off
- Resurface old StartupEdge archives for motifs worth a second, sharper life
- Convert vague feedback-hungry adjectives from a brief into concrete, defensible choices
- Craft layouts, typography, and imagery that elevate the StartupEdge experience
- Wring narrative clarity from a feature list three product managers fought over
What You'll Bring
- An eye for the generously-mentoring detail that separates fine from finished
- Sharp organizational skills and an ability to juggle multiple workstreams
- The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
- Detail-oriented approach with a commitment to accuracy
- Comfort steering creative conversations toward a decision
