Product Photographer

San Luis Obispo, CA
Part Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    iFixit is the focal point of a global community showing people how to fix the things they own. We've already helped tens of millions of people fix their own devices, and we plan to help hundreds of millions more. That's where you come in!

    We're looking for a part-time (20 hrs/wk) Product Photographer to help us grow and improve our product catalog with visually descriptive product photographs.

    This is your opportunity to make a huge impact at a growing online retailer. We're on a mission to teach the world how to fix everything they own—and we want you to join our team.

    WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:

    • Photographing new products that are to be introduced to the iFixit catalog (ifixit.com, eustore.ifixit.com, and elsewhere).
    • Photographing our parts and tools “in action”.
    • Touching up raw product photos in photo editing software.
    • Following existing design standards and collaborating with the E-commerce Team to develop better layouts and guidelines.
    • Walking the delicate balance of artistry and speed.

    WE'D BE EXCITED IF YOU HAD:

    • Technical know-how and experience with photography and DSLRs (we use Nikon).
    • Experience, skill, and efficiency with Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.
    • Extreme attention to detail and a critical eye.
    • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
    • A sense of humor and an affinity for getting things done.

    WHO YOU ARE:

    • Curious and creative.
    • Self-motivated, proactive, and mindful of deadlines.

    YOU'LL LOVE WORKING HERE BECAUSE OF:

    • The people: you'll be surrounded by some of the most creative, smart, funny, talented leaders and teams—people you can be proud to work with.
    • The excellent benefits: a repairable laptop, $400 toward a bike or alternative transportation, 401k plan with employer match (after one year of employment), profit sharing (after one year of employment), and more—yes, much more!
    • The perks: we have regular barbecues, enjoy catered meals together a couple times a week (our in-house chef is dynamite), and offer free fitness classes.
    • The experience: we help thousands of people fix their things on a daily basis. Really.
    • The impact: you'll reach over a hundred million fixers worldwide every year. (How's that for making a difference?)

    HOW TO APPLY:

    We like to see people who have gotten things done. So show us! Send us/link to your portfolio/photography, and tell us why you'd be perfect for the position.

    DIVERSITY MATTERS!

    When you go to a website like iFixit and scroll through the guides, it's easy to forget that there are tons of real people keeping all those bits and bytes running smoothly. But there are literally dozens of us! We're a diverse team, split between two continents—but we're united by a love of tinkering and repair.

    iFixit is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. Because we are trying to teach everyone to fix everything, we need a team as diverse as our online community. We believe that it takes people of all backgrounds to help us fix the world. Therefore, iFixit does not discriminate based upon race, religion, color, national origin, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, or any of the other important characteristics that make us unique and valuable.

    iFixit is committed to building a diverse team—not only in who we hire, but through creating a supportive environment for all of our team members based on mutual respect and inclusivity.
