You’ll work directly with Wyatt Miller, ChopAir’s Marketing Manager , and collaborate with teams throughout the company.

We’re not just looking for someone who can make things look nice.

We want someone curious about why something works.

Why this layout?

Why this color?

Why this hierarchy?

We want someone who enjoys exploring those questions and wants to keep getting better at answering them.

How We Work
Good design at ChopAir is intentional, not decorative.

We want you thinking through your choices, not simply defending them. You won’t always be right, and neither will we. What matters is being able to explain your thinking, take feedback, learn from it, and continue improving the work.

Communication matters a lot in this role. If something is unclear, ask. If priorities shift, communicate it. We would rather solve a problem early than discover it at the end of a project. We’re also a collaborative team, not a competitive one. We share ideas, teach each other, and jump in when someone needs help. Titles don’t excuse anyone from that. We believe creativity works best when people enjoy what they do. We take our work seriously, but that doesn't mean every day needs to feel serious. There's room to experiment, laugh, share ideas, and occasionally step away from a project when you need a fresh perspective.

We want to create an environment where people enjoy coming to work and feel proud of what they create.

You’re Allowed to Be Junior
We don’t expect you to walk in knowing our industry, every tool, or our internal processes.

You’ll receive direction and support while you learn, with more responsibility and ownership as your confidence grows.

You’ll have opportunities to explore different areas of marketing and design, discover your strengths, and develop new ones.

The goal over time is to move from:

“Tell me what to make.”

To:

“Here’s how I think we should solve this.”

We’re looking for someone who wants to grow into that kind of designer.

What We’d Like to See

Strong foundation in typography, layout, visual hierarchy, and color

Working knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign

Interest in video production, filming, and editing

Ability to take feedback and translate it into stronger creative work

Strong attention to detail

Clear communication and willingness to ask questions

Curiosity and a desire to continuously improve

Ability to organize projects and manage priorities across different creative tasks

Figma or Adobe XD experience

Photography experience

Familiarity with Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar video editing software

Experience operating cameras, lighting, and audio recording equipment

Basic video and audio editing experience

Familiarity with video export settings, file formats, and publishing workflows

Podcast or media production experience

Digital marketing experience

Basic understanding of UX/UI principles

A design-related degree is welcome but not required .

Your portfolio, fundamentals, creativity, and thought process matter more than the name of your degree .

Recent graduates and early-career designers are encouraged to apply.

Salary: $45,000–$50,000 annually , depending on experience

Paid time off

Opportunity to grow alongside an expanding company and marketing department

Direct mentorship and professional development from ChopAir’s Marketing Manager
