We are hiring an Adobe InDesign & Photoshop Designer to prepare accurate, press-ready files for its print production team. You'll build layouts, correct and optimize images, and preflight every job before it prints.The ideal candidate knows a file that looks right on screen isn't always ready for press, and catches problems before they become reprints.

Key Responsibilities:

• Prepare press-ready files in Adobe InDesign and Photoshop for products such as business cards, brochures, flyers, postcards, booklets, posters, banners, and signage.
  
• Preflight every customer-supplied file for resolution, color mode, bleed, trim, safe margins, fonts, and missing links, and fix issues before production.
  
• Build and edit layouts in InDesign using parent (master) pages, paragraph and character styles, and multi-page document setup.
  
• Retouch, color-correct, and optimize images in Photoshop, including RGB-to-CMYK conversion, background removal, and clipping paths.
  
• Set up files to exact specs, including crop marks, die lines, Pantone spot colors, fold lines, and spot UV or foil layers.
  
• Create step-and-repeat and basic imposition layouts when a job requires it.
  
• Export press-ready PDFs (PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-4) and package jobs with all fonts and linked files.
  
• Send digital proofs for customer approval, explain file issues in plain language, and turn revisions around quickly.
  
• Check every final file against the job ticket for size, copy, color, and finishing before release to production.
  
• Manage multiple jobs at once, prioritize rush orders, and keep job files and templates organized.
  
• Work closely with sales and production teams over email, chat, and video calls.

Qualifications:

• 3+ years of graphic design experience in print production, prepress, or a print or sign shop.
  
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe InDesign and Photoshop; working knowledge of Adobe Illustrator and Acrobat Pro's preflight tools is a strong plus.
  
• Strong prepress fundamentals: CMYK vs. RGB, Pantone spot colors, bleed and safe zones, 300 DPI resolution, overprint, transparency, and font handling.
  
• Hands-on experience preparing press-ready PDFs and fixing problem files from customers.
  
• Familiarity with digital and offset printing; large-format printing or RIP software experience (EFI Fiery, Onyx, Caldera) is a plus.
  
• Sharp eye for detail, catching typos, color shifts, low-resolution images, and layout errors before they reach press.
  
• Ability to work quickly and accurately on tight deadlines while handling several jobs at once.
  
• Clear written and spoken English for working with US customers and teammates.
  
• A portfolio of print work (layouts, marketing materials, packaging, or signage) is required.
  
• Reliable high-speed internet, a dedicated workspace, and availability during US business hours.
  
• Degree or diploma in graphic design or a related field preferred; equivalent experience is welcome.

• Job Timings: On-site (6:00 pm till 3:00 am PKT) (Full Time or Part time)
