2d • CA$40 - CA$55 • Hybrid

About The Position

The Digital Graphic Designer plays a key role in keeping Klue's Brand & Design team moving fast and looking sharp. The goal is to produce visually compelling, on-brand assets that bring ads, social posts, podcasts, articles, and slide decks to life. This role involves working closely with the Brand team, integrating feedback from the Content team and other stakeholders to turn requirements into polished, ready-to-ship designs. The work will span podcast cover art, article feature images, infographics, banners, and other promotional materials. The designer will lean on existing templates and brand systems for structure, while also creating new designs and templates to keep the visual identity consistent and the workflow efficient. The role will also involve working with AI tools and workflows to generate artwork and animations, and iterate on layouts. This is a role for someone who's craft-driven, brand-minded, fast at iteration, and proactive, balancing execution with creativity.

Requirements

• A strong portfolio that demonstrates visual craft: layout, typography, color, hierarchy, and composition.
• Proficiency in Figma, Photoshop, and Indesign.
• Comfort working from existing brand systems and templates.
• Clear, proactive communication that keeps distributed teams aligned over Slack and email.
• Self-direction: manage your own time, tools, and workflow as an independent contractor.
• A drive to learn, expand and grow your skillset.

Nice To Haves

• Hands-on experience with AI design tools (e.g., Runway, Midjourney, Claude Design and similar) to generate, refine, and improve graphics.
• Experience designing for podcasts, content marketing, or B2B SaaS brands.
• Experience with motion design using After Effects or AI tools like Runway.
• Experience designing for slide decks, especially using Google Slides.

Responsibilities

• Bring briefs to life by working with stakeholders to implement specifications, direction, and feedback into finished assets.
• Design graphic assets for articles, resources, banners, PDFs, podcast cover art, infographics, and promotional materials.
• Keep the brand cohesive by working with existing artwork to create engaging compositions and harmony in style that reinforce our brand structure and aesthetic.
• Build for efficiency by using existing templates for a streamlined workflow and creating new templates that scale.
• Communicate clearly to keep projects moving via Slack and email, and join daily check-ins and ad hoc meetings.
• Work AI-first by using AI design tools to create graphics, explore variations, accelerate production, and elevate output, then fold the best results back into on-brand work.
• Grow your own skillset and contribute to the growth of others.

Benefits

• Extended health & dental coverage that starts on Day 1.
• Discounts at Goodlife and Perkopolis.
• Access to a Mac (or PC) and A+ tooling.
