Retail Production Designer

<div class="content-intro"><p>We're so happy you're here! Thank you for checking our job out and we hope to have the chance to meet you in our interview process!</p></div><h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">About the role</span></h2>

<p>Grüns is scaling across retail fast, and every new retailer brings its own specs, formats, and quirks. We need a production expert who protects our brand on every shelf and every printer. You'll take our approved designs and turn them into clean, print-ready files, catching problems before they ever hit a press. This is a technical, detail-obsessed role for someone who loves living between design and execution. </p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>This role is part of our remote HQ! </strong>We have a fully remote, high-trust work environment - and also come together on a biannual basis for amazing off-sites where we can connect IRL. </span></p>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">In this role, you will:</span></h2>

<ul>

<li>Own technical production for retail and packaging: dielines, print-ready files, and vendor specs</li>

<li>Adapt approved retail concepts across formats, retailers, and sizes, and catch layout issues before they go to print</li>

<li>Build and maintain a production system (templates, specs, file organization) that keeps retail assets moving fast and accurate as we add new retailers</li>

<li>Become our go to person with print vendors about materials, tolerances, and print methods, and become their go-to person</li>

<li>Be the go-to resource for cross-functional partners on print production, resolving technical questions and driving projects forward </li>

<li>Provide backup production support for retail and DTC packaging</li>

<li>Build quality checks that catch problems before they reach shelves</li>

</ul>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">We're looking for someone who:</span></h2>

<ul>

<li>Has 3+ years as a production artist in packaging, print, retail, visual merchandising, or something similar</li>

<li>Strong expertise in Adobe Creative Suite, especially Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop.</li>

<li>Figma and 3D rendering tools (like sketchup) are a plus. </li>

<li>Has managed high-volume production across multiple SKUs, formats, retailers, and versions without missing a detail</li>

<li>Communicates clearly with designers, vendors, printers, and internal teams</li>

<li>Has a good eye for spacing, typography, and hierarchy, with room to grow. Bonus points if you've worked with print vendors or know flexo, digital, offset, or litho printing</li>

<li>Exceptional proofreading skills and an eagle-eye focus on picking up minor alignment, copy, or structural discrepancies </li>

<li>An understanding of color management techniques to maintain color consistency during print production.</li>

</ul>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Approach to the role:</span></h2>

<ul>

<li>You ask good questions instead of guessing. "I don't know, let me find out" is just part of your process</li>

<li>When a vendor says no or a spec doesn't work, you find a workaround. You don't just escalate it</li>

<li>You move fast without losing precision, even on tight timelines</li>

<li>You own your systems: naming, file structure, tracking, whatever keeps you sharp under pressure</li>

<li>You treat production like a craft, not a checklist</li>

</ul>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Compensation & Benefits:</span></h2>

<p data-start="4181" data-end="4598">At Grüns, we're committed to providing a competitive total compensation package — grounded in market data that considers our size, stage, industry, and location. For this role, the base salary range is <strong>$100,000-$115,000 plus bonus </strong>depending on experience, paired with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support the well-being and growth of our team.</p><div class="content-conclusion"><p><strong>A bit about us...</strong></p>

<p>At Grüns, we believe that foundational nutrition should be simple and convenient for everyone. We're dedicated to bringing comprehensive and real nutrition to you through our gummies, formulated from 60 nutrient-dense and whole-food ingredients. Simply enjoy a grab-and-go snack pack of gummies daily whenever fits best in your schedule and wherever life takes you.</p>

<p>Like you, we were disappointed. There’s an infinite number of “nutrition” companies, all focused on what’s best for them — not what’s best for you. Hundreds of products to sell you on, low-quality ingredients, and small nutrient doses. We’ve seen it all.</p>

<p>So we decided it was time to fix it. No more choking on and popping pills like a pharmacy. No more clean-up and disgust from gross powders. And no more cobbling together handfuls to dozens of supplements. Grüns is comprehensive nutrition, made convenient and delicious.</p>

<p> </p>

<p><strong>What we care about...</strong></p>

<p><strong>Be the Best: </strong>We hold ourselves, our teams, and our partners to an incredibly high standard - and we raise the bar constantly. "We've never done this before" isn't an excuse here. It's an invitation.</p>

<p><strong>Own It: </strong>We act like our name is on the door. That means taking complete ownership of outcomes, collaborating deeply, working through roadblocks - not around them - and never waiting for someone else to solve the problem. Great owners are great partners.</p>

<p><strong>Drive Impact, Urgently: </strong>We measure impact, not effort. We work smart and hard, move fast, and use every tool at our disposal - including AI - to focus our energy where it matters most.</p>

<p> </p>

<p><strong data-stringify-type="bold">Compensation & Perks:</strong></p>

<p>For every role, we aim to have highly competitive compensation and opportunity for impact and career growth.</p>

<p>Everyone at Grüns works hard, but we believe in wellness and balance too. We have super strong benefits coverage -- for you and your family, generous PTO, free Grüns, and a few more perks centered around health and well-being that we can't wait to tell you about!</p></div>
