    Role Description This is a full-time role for a Senior Packaging Designer specializing in Production & Systems. Based in Brooklyn, NY, this designer will be responsible for the execution and rollout of packaging across our 1,500+ SKU lineup.

Typography & Hierarchy: Managing dense information (nutrition facts, legal copy, ingredients) while maintaining aesthetic balance and legibility. Materiality & Finishes: Collaborating on the selection and application of print finishes to ensure the physical product feels as premium as it looks. Brand System Conceptualization & Implementation: Assisting the Creative Director in developing brand systems while ensuring the visual identity remains cohesive as it stretches across new product categories and form factors. Qualifications 3+ years of experience in Packaging Design with a portfolio showing realized, printed work (not just digital mockups). Advanced Speed & Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator. Strong knowledge of print production processes. Extreme attention to detail (ability to spot typos, kerning errors, and misalignments). Experience managing complex product families or high-volume SKU libraries. Strong communication skills needed to coordinate with other employees and internal creative teams. Degree or certification in Graphic Design, Visual Arts, or a related field preferred. Salary Range $70,000 - $90,000 Company Description Since its establishment in 2010, Sparkles Gift & Party Shop has evolved from a local provider of superior home goods and kitchenware into a globally recognized leader in e-commerce.
