About The Position

As a Screenprint Production Artist on our Little Falls Floor Support team, you will work close to the production floor and respond when artwork needs a fast, accurate fix before garments are printed. You will step in when a live order has an art question, compare the file with the work order and production reference, make the needed correction, and help the screenprint team get the job moving again. This position blends graphic production work with hands-on manufacturing support. One request may involve correcting a namedrop, while the next may require checking a comp, rebuilding part of a file, updating an ink rotation, or preparing a reburn request. You will communicate directly with artists, leads, Quality Control, and Little Falls production partners so decisions are clear and the finished print matches the approved artwork.

Requirements

Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator is required; working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop is strongly preferred.
Ability to inspect digital artwork carefully and recognize issues involving spelling, color, sizing, placement, file setup, and print quality.
Comfort using computers, shared files, work-order systems, and digital workflow tools throughout the day.
Strong organization and follow-through when priorities shift or several requests arrive at once.
Clear, respectful communication with artists, production team members, leads, and quality partners.
Ability to make sound decisions independently while knowing when to ask a lead for direction.
Reliable, flexible, welcoming, and ready to contribute to a team-first work environment.
Employee must be able to see, hear, read, write, communicate clearly, use good judgment, stay organized, adapt to changing priorities, and work with patience, professionalism, reliability, flexibility, and a helpful team-first attitude.

Nice To Haves

Graphic Design degree preferred, or equivalent education, portfolio work, or hands-on production art experience.
Experience with production art, prepress, screenprint, print production, apparel decoration, or manufacturing is helpful.
