Graphic Designer ​/ Production Specialist

Graphic Designer & Production Artist:
The  Maker  Role at FASTSIGNS

Design the City. Master the Craft. Own the Workflow.

Are you a designer who is tired of your work living and dying on a glowing screen? Do you crave the satisfaction of seeing your digital creations transformed into massive, physical landmarks that define your community?

We are FASTSIGNS of Coeur d’Alene
, and we are launching a brand-new, state-of-the-art center. We aren't just looking for someone to  push pixels   We are looking for a Founding Graphic Designer who wants to be a  Maker —someone who takes pride in the entire journey from a blank Adobe Illustrator artboard to a high-fidelity, finished physical product.

In most shops,  fast  means  chaos   In our shop,  fast  means optimized.

Guided by a veteran owner with a proven track record, our design and production area is unhurried, organized, and intentional. No  I need it yesterday  surprises—just a clear, visual work board and a team that stays ahead of the curve.

• The  Maker
  
  Experience:
  
  You won’t just be sitting at a desk. You’ll be the master of our brand-new, FASTSIGNS-exclusive Epson printer fleet and Mutoh plotters. You’ll see your work move from the screen, through the printer, and into the real world.
• A Protected Creative Space: Our sales team is trained to set realistic expectations. We know our name is FASTSIGNS, but we also know that quality takes a process. We protect your queue so you can focus on excellence.
• Mentorship & Growth: Start with a fully-paid, one-week professional training in May at our HQ in Carrollton, TX. You'll return to a shop where the owners are invested in your success and provide the tools for you to do your best work—your way.

We are looking for a high-quality professional with 3–5 years of experience who values precision, integrity, and the  Maker  spirit.

• The Illustrator Pro: Adobe Illustrator is your second language. You understand paths, vectors, and how to prep files for flawless physical output.
• The Detail Fanatic: You  measure twice and cut once   You have the  Maker  mindset where you enjoy weeding vinyl, operating high-end printers, and ensuring every edge is perfect.
• The EQ Teammate: You value a calm environment. You are a curious learner who isn't afraid to ask for assistance, and you take meticulous notes to ensure a project is done right the first time.
• The Physical Creator: You find joy in the  hands-on  part of the job—whether it’s leaning over a production table to apply graphics or seeing a 50lb roll of media turn into a masterpiece.

In your first 90 days, you will have mastered our optimized workflow and Epson/Mutoh equipment fleet. You’ll be the engine of our production area, confidently taking a client's concept and turning it into a finished, high-quality sign with minimal outside input. You’ll be a vital part of our morning huddles, helping us stay ahead of deadlines and building a reputation for excellence.
