Graphic Designer

Overview:

Two Barrels is looking for a graphic designer with a background in UI, branding and identity and/or illustration, but we hate to get so oddly specific about all that. This is a full time, 40 hour, Monday – Friday position with an annual salary of $75,000. This is a remote position. Our main office is in Spokane WA, and we have satellite offices in Austin TX and Salt Lake City UT.

The role works with a portfolio of manyyy websites and an ever-expanding set of software tools, but they are all in-house projects (no external clients). Projects may include web designs/redesigns, app development, spot illustrations, iconography, logo/brand development, brand campaigns for social media and external channels, and graphic support on video and animation projects.

You will be able to draw on your skills and experience to do whatever you feel inclined to do to get the job done right. You should have an interest in doing the research to understand the users and visitors of these properties and think outside of the box to raise the level of the projects you’ll work on. This is a chance to really dig in and do amazing things.

Two Barrels stays on the forefront of our industry’s trends, setting the bar for many others that follow. This requires everyone to work proficiently, so being a team player is a must. In addition to playing well with others, we would anticipate our graphic designer to be extraordinarily creative, have advanced knowledge of Adobe CS products, and to speak the language of design and production in the digital setting.
