Description
Description Position Summary Are you a creative problem-solver who loves turning ideas into real-world packaging? We’re looking for a talented Folding Carton Packaging Designer to join our growing team. In this role, you’ll focus on structural folding carton design in ArtiosCAD while also getting hands-on experience with prototyping, production support, and innovative packaging solutions. We will give extra consideration to candidates who are willing to learn pre-flighting customer supplied art files, creating proofs and correctly preparing art files for successful print and finishing production. This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys variety in their day-to-day, and wants to contribute to a team that’s raising the bar in packaging design. What You’ll Do · Design and development of folding carton packaging from structural concept to prototyping and production runs. · Translate creative ideas into production-ready die lines and layouts. · Build accurate CAD samples and mockups using tools such as the Kongsberg cutting table. · Leverage your knowledge of paperboard and finishing processes to design packaging that’s both functional and beautiful. · Partner with production and customer service to troubleshoot challenges and keep projects moving smoothly. · Juggle multiple projects with fast turnarounds while staying detail-focused and organized. · Keep equipment (like the cutting table and proofing printer) running smoothly with light maintenance and calibration. · Support department needs as part of a collaborative, team-first culture. What We’re Looking For 4–6 years of experience in structural folding carton packaging design. Solid knowledge of ArtiosCAD software, carton structures, and packaging production processes. Strong problem-solving and mathematical skills with a sharp eye for detail. Willingness to learn pre-press production processes for offset printing and production finishing as well as prepress workflow and layout programs for imposing, proofing, and plating. Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and Microsoft Office Suite. A team player who can also work independently and adapt quickly to shifting priorities. Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in packaging, design, or related field. More extensive work experience in lieu of a degree will also be considered. Bonus Points If You Have Experience with Prepress, graphic design (print or web), or marketing. Hands-on expertise with cutting tables and physical prototype building. A technical degree or certification in packaging, design, or a related discipline. Why Join Us? You’ll be part of a forward-thinking team that values creativity, problem-solving, and continuous improvement. Every project is an opportunity to make an impact, whether you’re designing a carton from scratch, building a prototype, or helping streamline production. We pride ourselves on collaboration, innovation, and delivering work that sets us apart in the industry.
