Graphic Designer

**Please note this is an in-house position before applying!**

At HiViz Lighting and the FireTech brand, our mission is to help first responders work more safely and effectively after dark, so that they can help others. To continue accomplishing this mission, we need to add a strong graphic designer to our team!

Do you use Illustrator and InDesign like an extension of your brain to convey visual ideas? Do you know the Creative Suite like the back of your hand? Rocking the socks off these programs is a must- we’re busy creating really exciting tech, and need a strong creative that can help us breathe life in to the product material without getting hung up in the software. XD, Keyshot, and After Effects/Motion are nice bonuses as well!

We’re looking for someone who can dream in storyboards, who loves UI/UX design, who appreciates and can articulate the difference between “good” and “meh” design. We’re looking for someone who really loves Comic Sans MS. Ha, kidding on that last one… we hate that font and hope you do too!

A bit about the company: If you’re passionate about spending your days with good people and serving those who serve others, we are your team! Does working with passionate, humble, friendly team members (who double as friends) sound appealing to you? That’s us! It’s worth noting that we are a work from work company, so no need to apply if you’re looking for a remote gig!

What Winning Looks Like:

  • Create marketing materials for print and digital format, including product catalogs, product brochures, application guides, sales sheets, etc
  • Develop product packaging and installation instructions for new product releases (with support from our engineering team)
  • Generate on-brand visual assets for trade events (printed and digital)
  • Maintain product pages, company news, and other aspects of the company’s website using Wordpress CMS
  • Be knowledgable of Microsoft Office including Word, Excel, Outlook & Powerpoint as well as proficient in Mac programs Pages & Keynote
  • Keep up with current design trends
  • Energized by opportunities for personal and professional growth
  • Complete design projects from start to finish 
  • Ability to work quickly and efficiently (we’re not tyrants but we do move quickly!)
  • Collaborate with the entire team to complete tasks and create INCREDIBLE content
  • Have the ability to take small pieces of information and expand on it to create a deliverable
  • Contribute to our team’s culture and drive for success
  • Collaborate with outside vendors or partners to get quotes, organize printing etc. 

Skills needed to win:

  • Strong typography skills
  • Ability to multi-task when needed
  • Excellent communicator
