What is a vector illustrator?

A Vector Illustrator is a graphic design professional who creates digital artwork using vector-based software such as Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW. Unlike raster images, vector illustrations are made up of scalable paths, allowing them to be resized without losing quality. Vector Illustrators work in various industries, including advertising, branding, publishing, and web design, to produce logos, icons, illustrations, and other visual elements. Their job typically involves interpreting client briefs, conceptualizing designs, and refining artwork to meet project requirements. Strong artistic skills, attention to detail, and proficiency in design software are essential for success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a vector illustrator?

To excel as a Vector Illustrator, you need strong artistic ability, a solid understanding of design principles, and proficiency in digital illustration techniques. Expertise in software like Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW, along with a relevant portfolio or design degree, is highly valued. Attention to detail, creativity, and effective communication are essential soft skills for turning concepts into compelling visual assets and collaborating with clients or team members. These skills ensure the creation of high-quality, scalable artwork that meets project goals and client expectations.

What types of projects and collaborations can a vector illustrator expect?

As a Vector Illustrator, you may work on a wide variety of projects such as logo design, branding assets, infographics, icons, product illustrations, or digital art for marketing and web applications. Collaboration is often required with graphic designers, art directors, marketing teams, or clients to ensure the artwork aligns with overall project objectives and brand identity. While some projects may be completed independently, many roles involve working within a creative team or in direct communication with clients to receive feedback and iterate on designs. This diversity in projects and teamwork fosters both creative growth and opportunities to expand your professional portfolio.

Job description

Hand-Drawn Illustrator — Retail / Cannabis Packaging
The Sticky Trap (FM Holdings LLC) · Michigan · On-site · [Full-time / Part-time]

We're a design house that brands cannabis and consumer products — logos, packaging, apparel, merch.


We're looking for an illustrator whose hand-drawn art can own a shelf: characters, caricatures, and striking scenes that make someone pick the product up. Your art ships — on jars, bags, shirts, and stickers people actually buy and keep.


This is a hands-on, in-studio role. You'll sketch in front of clients, think out loud in design meetings, and — because we build in public — show your process on camera for our channels. If your best work only happens hidden behind a screen, this isn't the seat.


What you'll do

  • Hand-draw original art for retail packaging — characters, caricatures, scenes, label and wrap illustration
  • Take work from rough sketch to print-ready file
  • Present concepts and sketch live in client meetings
  • Keep our artwork library organized and reusable
  • Show your process on camera for social content, with the team

What you need

  • A portfolio that proves the hand-drawn skill. Show us the work — it beats a résumé or a degree.
  • Fluency in Adobe: Illustrator (vector for print), and Photoshop
  • Comfortable working on Windows
  • Print discipline — our deadlines are tight and unforgiving; a misspelled strain name or an off-register file costs real money
  • 21+ and comfortable creating cannabis-industry artwork

Bonus points

  • A distinct, recognizable style you can talk about
  • Range beyond illustration — lettering, 3D, motion, print finishing — anything that widens what we can make
  • Up for being part of our content — you'd rather show the craft than hide it

What you get

  • Pay: $45 to $60k · paid sick time ·
  • Your work on real products, out in the wild
  • A reel and an audience you build through our content — not just ours

To apply
Send your portfolio (link or PDF) and a couple lines on your style and method. Include one piece you'd put on a product — and one line on why it'd sell. Applications without a portfolio won't be reviewed.


FM Holdings LLC, dba The Sticky Trap, is an equal-opportunity employer. This is an at-will position.
