[Hiring] Graphic Designer @Corrocoat Usa Inc

Role Description

This is a contract engagement, not a full-time hire. Work will be scoped in two ways:

• Hourly work against a pre-agreed rate for ongoing or smaller requests (social posts, revisions, one-off diagrams, campaign support).
• Lump-sum pricing for defined projects (a brochure, a technical illustration package, a short explainer animation, a trade-show set).

Volume will vary. Some months will be light; others will cluster around product launches, bids, events, or campaign windows. You will work directly with the Director of Corrocoat USA / Marketing.

What you will create:

• Product and capability brochures, sell sheets, case-study layouts, and trade-show materials that stay on brand and stay technically accurate.
• Technical sketches and cross sections: coating-layer build-ups, tank and vessel linings, pipe sections, pump internals, structural-steel details, application sequences, and before/after or cutaway views.
• Social media content for LinkedIn and other channels: static posts, carousels, simple motion graphics, and campaign templates that can be reused.
• Short animated videos (typically 15–60 seconds): product explainers, process sequences, coating-system animations, and project highlight clips.

You will take direction, raw photos, datasheets, and engineering input and turn them into finished, print-ready and web-ready files. Accuracy matters as much as polish. A pretty drawing that misrepresents film thickness, substrate, or application method is not usable.

Qualifications

• Strong portfolio showing both brand/marketing design and technical or industrial illustration (cross sections, exploded views, process diagrams, or similar).
• Expert-level Adobe Illustrator and InDesign; solid Photoshop.
• Ability to produce short motion work in After Effects and/or Premiere (or equivalent).
• Experience designing for B2B industrial, manufacturing, engineering, coatings, oil and gas, or a similarly technical sector.
• Comfort working from rough sketches, photos, product data sheets, and verbal briefings.
• Clean file hygiene: layered source files, print specs, web exports, and version control.
• Reliable communication, realistic estimates, and the ability to quote both hourly and project-based work.
• Availability for scheduled calls during U.S. Eastern Time.

Requirements

• Experience illustrating coatings, composites, linings, mechanical equipment, or plant assets.
• Ability to interpret simple engineering drawings or work with a technical reviewer without needing every line redrawn.
• Motion work that can explain a process without looking like a consumer ad.
• Familiarity with LinkedIn-native formats and basic content systems (Canva is fine as a delivery tool; it should not be the only tool).

Engagement terms

• Independent contractor. You invoice Corrocoat USA.
• Hourly rate agreed in advance for open-ended or revision-heavy work.
• Lump-sum quotes required for scoped projects, with deliverables, rounds of revision, and file formats stated in writing before work starts.
• All finished work and working files created for Corrocoat USA are work product of Corrocoat USA.
• No guaranteed minimum hours. We will give as much forward visibility as the calendar allows.
• Corrocoat USA is an equal opportunity company. We hire contractors based on skill, reliability, and fit for the work.
• Flexible work from home options available.
