Graphic Sign Designer (Production-Focused, Real-World Design)
Hummelstown, PA
Full-Time | Monday–Friday | In-Person
Pay: Based on experience
Graphic Sign Designer – Create real-world signage, not just digital graphics. Design with purpose, precision, and production in mind. WE’RE GROWING — DESIGN THAT GETS BUILT
At Stoner Graphix, we don’t design for screens—we design for the real world.
For over 35 years, we’ve created custom signage, branded environments, vehicle wraps, and large-format graphics that are built, installed, and experienced in physical spaces.
We’re looking for a Graphic Sign Designer who understands that great design doesn’t stop at how it looks—it’s about how it’s built, installed, and experienced.
If you love typography, layout, and creating original designs—but also enjoy thinking through materials, scale, and real-world application—this is your role.
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING (REAL DESIGN, REAL APPLICATION)Signage & Environmental Design
- Design custom signage systems, branded environments, and large-format graphics
- Create layouts for dimensional signs, wall graphics, wayfinding, and exterior signage
- Develop concepts that translate from screen to physical production
Production-Ready Design
- Prepare files for fabrication, printing, and installation
- Work within real-world constraints (materials, scale, installation methods)
- Ensure accuracy in sizing, layout, and production specs
Collaboration
- Work closely with Account Managers to bring client visions to life
- Collaborate with Production to ensure designs are buildable and efficient
- Revise and refine designs based on feedback and real-world considerations
Creative Contribution
- Develop original concepts—not templates
- Maintain brand consistency across multiple applications
- Balance creativity with function and clarity
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR (Must-Have)
- Strong experience in graphic design (Adobe Illustrator required)
- Solid understanding of typography, layout, and composition
- Ability to design original concepts (not template-based work)
- Detail-oriented with strong file setup and organization skills
- Ability to take direction and collaborate with a team
Highly Valuable (but not required)
- Experience in signage, environmental graphics, or large-format design
- Knowledge of materials, fabrication methods, or installation processes
- Experience preparing files for print, CNC, or production workflows
- Familiarity with scale-based design (large signage, vehicles, etc.)
THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF:
- Your experience is primarily social media or marketing graphics
- You rely heavily on templates or pre-made assets
- You don’t enjoy working within real-world production constraints
- You’re not detail-oriented with file setup and accuracy
