About the role

The Illustrator will bring Lovepop's product designs to life through beautiful, on-brand illustration across our owned and licensed portfolio. Reporting to the Art Director, this role focuses on illustration — creating characters, scenes, patterns, graphics and sentiment art that translate into 3D pop-up cards and paper-art gifts.

As Illustrator, you will work closely with the Art Director, fellow illustrators, and the 3D paper-engineering team to turn briefs into production-ready art. Your mission is to:

(1) execute high-quality illustration work to creative briefs from the Art Director, adhering to the style engineering requirements of each product line.

(2) produce illustrations that respect licensor style guides for our licensed IPs — hitting character integrity, brand voice, and approval standards.

(3) partner with the 3D paper-engineering team to ensure your illustration translates beautifully on the finished product.
