About the position

At SimpliSafe, we are seeking a talented Graphic Designer to join our dynamic team. As a high-tech home security company, we are dedicated to protecting the lives our customers have built, and we are passionate about our mission of keeping Every Home Secure. Our culture is one of collaboration and innovation, where we value the growth and development of our employees just as much as the work we do. We embrace a hybrid work model, allowing our teams to balance their time between the office and home, with core in-office days typically on Tuesday and Wednesday. This flexibility enables us to leverage the best of both worlds to accomplish our goals. In this role, you will work closely with the Associate Creative Director (ACD), senior designers, and copy partners on a variety of design projects, including in-store retail displays and packaging design for a broad range of SimpliSafe products. You will also participate in digital design projects, particularly for online retail platforms such as Amazon and BestBuy. Your responsibilities will include collaborating with internal clients and stakeholders to ensure projects are completed on time and meet the specified briefs. You will need to be knowledgeable about print best practices, ensuring that final files adhere to print and web standards, and assist in the pre-press validation and review process with the packaging team. Your role will also involve maintaining technical documentation and a database of finished printed packaging items, while protecting and enhancing SimpliSafe's brand identity. Staying updated on current design trends will be essential to your success in this position. We are looking for someone who is not only skilled in design but also embodies our values of being customer-obsessed, aiming high, and working collaboratively as one team. If you are ready to take on this challenge and make a significant impact in the home security space, we encourage you to apply.
