About the Role
We are looking for a meticulous designer who can hit the ground running, with a primary focus on creating packaging design solutions for our clients. This includes developing creative concepts, producing digital mock-ups, and preparing print-ready artwork for packaging deliverables. In addition to packaging, your role will also support Minifiglabs in creating digital mock-ups, preparing final artwork for printing, and creating custom sets using LEGO® bricks. Examples of things we design are custom sets/minifigs/wall murals made with LEGO® elements, building instructions, box packaging, 3D models with textures etc. We also expect someone with an openness to learn new pipelines, and who can work in a highly collaborative and team-oriented environment.
At Minifiglabs, we operate in a casual office environment but are very serious about producing high-quality work with unparalleled results. As part of a growing team where our individual job titles mean little and quality of work means everything, you will be held accountable to a high standard and expected to pitch in where needed across the board.
What A Day Looks Like @ Minifiglabs:
- Understand the design requirements of a project
- Propose/conceptualise ideas with digital mock ups (Adobe Photoshop + 3D software)
- Convert the mock ups into printable artwork (Adobe Illustrator)
- Design building instructions for sets
- Create designs for various formats of packaging
- Occasionally communicate with specific vendors regarding your artwork
- Design custom LEGO® sets based on project requirements (training provided)
- We do our best to avoid OT-ing unless necessary. When OT is required, it is accounted for and compensated with time-off

- You’re a team player
- You like LEGO® products
- You are a hands-on person and like to see your creations not just on a screen but physically in reality

- You like sketching and creating outfits for characters
- You enjoy multitasking and managing time-sensitive projects concurrently
