- Digital Press Setup: Send approved design files to digital presses using RIP software (Fiery Command WorkStation) and maintain organized client digital asset libraries.
- Production Support: Assist with light digital print runs and sample proofs as needed.
Qualifications & Skills

- Proven graphic design portfolio with a strong grasp of typography, layout, and visual hierarchy.
- Demonstrated understanding of print design standards (CMYK vs. RGB, vector vs. raster, bleed/trim specs).
- Strong customer service and communication skills with a positive, client-focused attitude.
- Prior print shop, quick-copy, or pre-press experience is a major plus.
