We build brands for manufacturers, capital equipment firms and chemical companies. Our clients sell machines worth crores to procurement committees that trust nothing. Our work is what makes them look credible enough to shortlist.
No mood boards. No brand films. No "vibes."
This is design that has to survive a technical buyer with a spreadsheet open.
Read this part before you apply
We reject roughly nine out of ten portfolios. Usually in under 90 seconds.
Here is what gets you rejected:
Templates dressed up as original work
Kerned and tracked type used as decoration
Rounded corners on everything
Portfolios with no B2B, industrial or technical work at all
Case studies that show the artwork but never the problem
AI-generated filler passed off as craft
If your portfolio is a grid of Instagram posts for cafes, this role is not for you. No hard feelings.
What you will actually do
Company profiles, sales decks and product catalogues that close deals
Exhibition graphics for national trade shows
Annual and sustainability reports, 60 to 120 pages, in InDesign
Brand systems that a client's internal team can run without us
Social and campaign assets that hold the same standard as the print
You will work directly with the founder. Feedback will be blunt and rapid. Nothing gets buried in a review cycle.
Non-negotiable
3+ years of professional experience. Not internships.
Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop and Figma. Daily use, all four. InDesign especially. If you have avoided long-form layout work, you will struggle here.
Typography that holds up under scrutiny
Ability to take a brief, argue with it, then execute
Nice to have
Print production and pre-press knowledge
Motion basics in After Effects
Any exposure to manufacturing, engineering or pharma clients
What you get
Real work in your portfolio within the first month. Named clients, published work, not internal exercises.
Direct access to the founder. No layers.
A studio small enough that your work is visib
