We are seeking a visually driven, highly organized entry-level Packaging and Documentation Designer with a strong foundation in graphic layout, print production, and technical writing.

This is an ideal junior professional role for a graphic design graduate who wants to combine creative layout skills with professional technical communication.

  • Build virtual product samples via digital photo manipulation for presentations and client approval documents.
  • Update and maintain digital layouts, including customer-facing installation websites and digital portals.
  • Utilize studio photography to document prototypes, log inbound/outbound samples, and maintain visual archive files.

Technical Writing & Documentation Control

  • Draft structural assembly and method documents to outline clear production workflows.
  • Create and update raw material and production specifications for both internal and external customer review.
  • Maintain internal and customer Bills of Materials (BOMs) to track design changes accurately.
  • Manage engineering change workflows by processing, distributing, and archiving change requests and deviation notices.
  • Maintain rigorous project history archives, ensuring all design changes and verification records are thoroughly documented.
  • Support general design department administrative needs, including sample log coordination, trial sample builds, and meeting minutes.

Job Requirements
Education

  • Associate degree required; Bachelor’s degree preferred.
  • Degree field must be in Graphic Design or a related subset such as Editorial Design, Visual Communication, or Package Design.
  • Must have completed specific coursework or possess project experience combining graphic layout, typography, print design, and professional/instructional writing.

Technical Skills & Software Proficiency

  • Adobe Creative Suite: Advanced entry-level proficiency in Illustrator and Photoshop is strictly required.
  • Microsoft Office: Strong functional knowledge of Word and Excel for formatting technical data tables and specifications.
  • Technical Aptitude: Willingness and ability to learn AutoCad LT software to support foundational technical drawing tasks.

Core Competencies

  • Strong Visual Eye: Deep understanding of typography, grid systems, page composition, and print production workflows.
  • Detail-Oriented: Exceptional accuracy when aligning technical text with graphic assets and maintaining configuration control.
  • Time Management: Proven ability to balance immediate creative design projects with routine technical documentation deadlines.

Physical Demands

  • Ability to sit at a design workstation for up to 8 hours on a regular basis.
  • Ability to lift 10 pounds regularly, 25 pounds occasionally, and up to 50 pounds on rare occasions.

What We Offer

  • Cross-functional training in CAD software, manufacturing design workflows, and industrial production.
