Senior Brand Designer / Art Director

We’re looking for a senior, hands-on Brand Designer to help shape and build the visual identity of Iluia, a Texas-based consumer cannabis brand. We have an existing logo, brand direction, packaging concepts, product imagery, and website layouts in development. We’re looking for someone who can transform these foundations into a cohesive, premium, and distinctive visual system that works across digital, packaging, retail, and marketing. This is not a logo-only or production design role. You’ll help define the brand’s creative direction while creating practical, polished assets for real business needs. The initial focus will include designing website graphics, hero sections, promotional assets, packaging concepts, labels, mockups, production-ready files, and establishing a reusable visual foundation including typography, color systems, image treatment, textures, patterns, and graphic language. The ideal designer has experience creating complete brand systems, not just isolated logos or social assets. You should have strong skills in typography, composition, visual storytelling, packaging design, digital design, and brand development. Advanced Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop skills, along with strong Figma experience, are required. Indiva should feel modern, premium, expressive, and human. We want a brand with a clear point of view—refined without feeling sterile, bold without being chaotic, and distinctive without relying on typical cannabis design clichés. We’re looking for someone who can think conceptually, contribute creative ideas, handle feedback thoughtfully, and deliver highly polished, organized files ready for developers, printers, and production partners. This engagement will begin with a paid test project and can develop into a long-term creative partnership for the right designer. You will work directly with our internal creative lead and become a key contributor as the brand grows. To apply, please share up to three relevant case studies showing your role, process, and how the brand system extended across multiple touchpoints. Please include your availability, Eastern Time overlap, design tools you use, experience with AI tools or external assets, and confirm that you personally complete the work. We are looking for an individual freelancer—not an agency or outsourced design team.
