What are the responsibilities and job description for the Graphic Designer position at Artistic Invasion?
Graphic Designer
Artistic Invasion Central Indiana (Indianapolis Area)
Full-Time | On-Site | Apparel Decoration & Promotional Products
Artistic Invasion is a custom screen printing, embroidery, and apparel decoration shop serving businesses, schools, teams, and organizations across Central Indiana. We turn ideas into wearable, print-ready art — and we’re looking for a Graphic Designer to join our production team and help bring those projects to life.
This is a hands-on production design role. You’ll spend your day preparing art for real jobs heading to the press, the embroidery machine, and the heat transfer station — not building brand decks. If you love the satisfaction of seeing your work printed on hundreds of garments, you’ll fit right in.
What You’ll Do
- Prepare and clean up customer-supplied artwork for production across multiple decoration methods.
- Create mockups and proofs for customer approval, and revise based on feedback.
- Color-separate artwork and produce screen-printing positives.
- Set up files for DTF, DTG, sublimation, heat transfer, and vinyl, including cut lines.
- Digitize or coordinate embroidery files for the embroidery team.
- Work alongside our designers and production crew to keep jobs moving and deadlines met.
- Maintain organized art files and job documentation in our production system.
What We’re Looking For
- Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop (vector and raster work).
- Strong eye for typography, layout, color, and detail.
- Ability to take rough or low-quality customer art and make it production-ready.
- Comfort managing multiple jobs and deadlines in a fast-paced shop.
- Clear communicator who works well with sales, production, and customers.
- Reliable, on-site, and ready to be part of a small, tight-knit team.
Nice to Have
- Prior experience in screen printing, embroidery, or apparel decoration.
- Familiarity with color separations and screen-printing positives.
- Experience with production/order systems (e.g., Printavo) and online stores (e.g., Inksoft).
- Knowledge of wide-format printing and signage workflows.
Why Artistic Invasion
- A steady pipeline of real, varied projects — your designs ship every week.
- A collaborative team where designers, printers, and the shop owner work side by side.
- Room to grow your skills across multiple decoration methods.
- A locally owned Central Indiana shop that values craftsmanship and reliability.
How to Apply
Apply through really with your resume and a portfolio or samples of your design work. Apparel, print, or production samples are a big plus — we want to see what you’ve made.
