Who We Are

DK Global is the country’s premier litigation visuals firm. We create 3D animated visual presentations for attorneys to use in demand packages, mediations, and trials. Through the creative process, we are the silent partner in putting broken lives and shattered dreams back together — one frame at a time.

Who We’re Looking For

We are seeking a talented and creative Graphic Designer with advanced skills in Adobe Creative Suite. This person will join our team on a long-term contract basis, with the possibility of transitioning to a permanent full-time role, and take a leading role in updating our branding, style guide, branded assets, templates, and website.

The ideal candidate must be comfortable designing for a wide range of digital and physical media. You will have a passion for design, a strong eye for detail, the ability to bring ideas to life through visual communication, and deep understanding of the most cutting edge and contemporary styles and best practices.

In other words, we’re looking for a boundary-pushing creator, not a paint-by-numbers box-checker.

While this role can be on-site at our headquarters in Redlands, CA, we are open to a remote arrangement for the right fit. If this sounds like you, read on!
