Signage Designer (ZR-641)

 Job Description:

Horizon Tech is seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Signage Designer with hands-on experience in the signage industry. The ideal candidate will have the ability to design with real-world context—creating visually compelling, production-ready signage solutions across architectural and branded environments. 

This role requires a strong understanding of materials, fabrication processes, and compliance standards, along with the ability to translate concepts into practical, installable designs.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop a wide range of signage including illuminated signs, channel letters, ADA/Braille signage, vinyl graphics, metal letters, and frosted films
  • Create wayfinding systems and environmental graphics aligned with brand and spatial requirements
  • Ensure all designs meet ADA compliance, readability, and safety standards
  • Collaborate with project managers, architects, and fabrication teams to ensure feasibility and accuracy
  • Prepare files for production including dimensions, material specs, and installation guidelines
  • Support permitting processes and documentation when required
  • Optimize designs for cost-efficiency, durability, and scalability across multiple locations

Required Qualifications:

  • 2–5 years of experience in signage design, environmental graphics, or related field
  • Strong portfolio showcasing real-world signage projects (not just digital graphics)
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop)
  • Solid understanding of signage materials, fabrication methods, and installation considerations
  • Ability to create accurate, detailed, and production-ready files
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with illuminated signage and large-scale signage rollouts
  • Knowledge of ADA guidelines and local code compliance
  • Familiarity with permitting processes for signage installations
  • Basic experience with 3D design tools (e.g., SketchUp)
  • Experience working with US-based signage standards or clients

What We're Looking For:

  • A practical designer who understands how designs translate into physical signage
  • Someone who can design with context — considering placement, visibility, materials, and environment
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams
  • A proactive mindset with problem-solving abilities in real-world constraints
