Technical Product Marketer & Graphic Designer

Posted 4 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

Position Overview We are seeking a rare combination: a technically curious marketer who is also an exceptional, hands-on graphic designer. This is a true hybrid role combining technical product marketing with professional graphic design. The successful candidate must be able to understand engineered products, develop clear customer messaging, and personally create the finished materials used to market and sell them. This is not a strategy-only or agency-management position. You will work directly with engineers, salespeople, and company leadership, then turn technical information and rough ideas into polished customer-facing materials. Responsibilities • Develop product positioning, messaging, value propositions, and sales content. • Translate technical features and specifications into clear customer benefits. • Design brochures, sell sheets, specification sheets, catalogs, presentations, and proposals. • Create technical illustrations, system diagrams, product graphics, comparison charts, and infographics. • Develop website content, e-commerce materials, email campaigns, digital advertisements, and product-launch materials. • Create trade show graphics, signage, training materials, and sales tools. • Work directly with engineers to understand product functionality and technical details. • Coordinate product photography, video, printing, website updates, and outside resources when needed. • Manage projects from initial concept through final production. • Maintain consistent branding, messaging, formatting, and visual standards. Qualifications • Three or more years of professional experience in marketing, graphic design, technical communication, or product content. • Strong portfolio demonstrating high-quality, personally completed graphic-design work. • Advanced proficiency with Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. • Strong understanding of layout, typography, branding, and visual communication. • Ability to understand technical, industrial, electronic, or engineered products. • Strong writing, editing, proofreading, and presentation skills. • Comfortable working with engineers, technical specifications, drawings, and detailed product information. • Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and complete projects with limited supervision. • Strong attention to detail and technical accuracy. Preferred Experience • Manufacturing, engineering, electronics, automotive, marine, wireless, connected-device, telematics, or IoT products. • Technical illustrations, product diagrams, installation materials, or specification sheets. • CAD files, 3D renderings, product photography, video, websites, e-commerce, or digital marketing. • PowerPoint, Figma, Canva, WordPress, or similar tools. • AI-assisted tools for writing, design, content creation, or workflow improvement. Ideal Candidate The right person will be equally comfortable asking an engineer how a product works and designing a professional brochure that explains why a customer should buy it. You should enjoy personally creating finished work, simplifying complex information without losing accuracy, and taking projects from a rough idea to a polished final product. To Apply Please provide: • A brief description of your experience with technical or engineered products. • A portfolio of your strongest graphic-design work. • Examples of brochures, specification sheets, presentations, diagrams, catalogs, or similar materials you personally created. • A description of your role in producing each example. Applications without a relevant portfolio will not be considered.
