Job Description

ABC Imaging has an immediate opening for a Graphic Designer/PrePress Operator Specialist with 3-5 years of printing/graphics experience in our Fort Lauderdale, FL location. We're looking for someone with experience in traditional prepress, more focus on file mechanics vs. artistic design. You will be working directly with a team that supports our high-end retail clients. This is a great opportunity to learn, develop and expand skills in the industry:

PRINTING EXPERIENCE IS A MUST!

• Accept incoming jobs that require art production, digital manipulation, or output.
• Preflight all incoming digital files to ensure the most accurate reproduction based on customer expectations.
• Provides constant analysis and improvement of current preflight and prepress standards against evolving industry standards.
• Maintain proper calibration of digital equipment to industry standards utilizing modern RIP and color calibration equipment.
• Coordinate with other managers concerning schedules and deadlines, ensuring a smooth workflow.
• Proof all jobs for accuracy, content, color, size, and production requirements.
• Aids the graphics and digital production teams as needed.
• Other duties as assigned.

Qualifications

• 3 – 5 years of printing/graphics experience
• Experienced in current design and page layout software
• File prep and "fixing" for print-ready status - pre-flighting, layering, knockout, trapping, and overprints
• Ability to handle complex large format projects, like bus tiling and vehicle wraps, often with variable graphics, bus configurations, and delivery points. A high-level organization must be utilized.
• Experience with Color Management rules and methodologies adhering to industry color standards
• Knowledge of ICC profiling, press profiling, and color gamut limitations are a bonus – this can be trained to new staff.
• Exceptional Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and Corel Draw
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and head multiple projects without losing focus
• Strong attention to detail
• Stellar communication skills both verbally and in writing
• Willingness to learn new skills and train others on these skills as they are incorporated into the digital workflow.
• Self-driven growth activity in the modern design and print market via forums, magazines, or memberships in order to grow with developing technologies and strategies.
