Full-time
Full Job Description
We are Skyward.
That is, a love for people, for improvement, for human advancement through information technology. We are a people-centered business with a desire to serve others. We are diverse and unified; creative and collaborative; a collection of complementary, not competing talents. And though on the surface we remain relaxed, beneath, a torrent of energy links us to our civic tech mission.
We stand by our values, and we won't compromise on any of them.Integrity: We're conscientious, intentional, and empathetic. Our words and actions align. That's our character. Please don't ask us to play another part, we're poor actors.   Compassionate: If we may borrow a quote from Theodore Roosevelt: "No one cares how much you know until they know how much you care." Because our team is thoughtful and supportive, caring deeply for each other, our clients, and our work, this comes naturally. Inquisitive: We remain students by failing openly and turning lessons into solutions.Unconventional: For us, life isn't what happens outside of work. Work happens inside of life and our culture erases the line often dividing the two.   Authentic: Made possible only because we embody the values listed above. We're relaxed and fun yet intensely curious and driven. Team members are placed with thought, care, and precision to ensure that Trust, Truth, and Transparency continue to represent our brand.
Because of that, we continue Onward, Upward, and Skyward.
We need a Graphic Designer.Are you obsessed with great design? Do you have a keen eye for aesthetics, branding, and layout? Can you translate complex ideas into clear, compelling visuals? Oh, and do you thrive under deadlines (because, let's be honest, proposals wait for no one)?We're looking for a Graphic Designer to join our Proposal Team, helping to create polished, professional, and visually engaging graphics for government proposals. If you love turning dense information into sleek, persuasive visuals, have a knack for presentation design, infographics, and layout optimization, and want to collaborate with someone who's just a little artistic himself-then we want to hear from you!
Apply now and help us bring our proposals to life.
Let's go Skyward together.

What you'll do:

  • Be part of our Bid and Proposal team by creating visual designs that help communicate the Skyward message.  This might include marketing materials, website updates, and contract proposal materials.
  • Have a hand in shaping and influencing the visual landscape of Skyward (and in winning business with our government partners).
  • Develop concepts, graphics and layouts, including making decisions about fonts, images, readability and users' needs.
  • Create and edit images using computer software to create and edit photographs or illustrations.

What we'd like you to have:

  • A bachelor's degree in graphic design.
  • 4-5 years of experience in graphic design.
  • Experience with the Adobe Creative Suite.
  • Strong background in design theory.
  • A history of creating visual designs that communicated a specific message or concept.
  • A love for research and understanding target audiences to ensure that the final product effectively communicates the intended message.
  • Good understanding of color theory, typography, and layout design to ensure that the final product is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
  • Experience presenting designs to clients (any kind of client) and receiving feedback.

What would blow us away:

  • Your portfolio.
  • You've previously been a Graphic Designer for a government contractor.
  • Somehow you are a Microsoft Word formatting ninja.

Even if you don't meet 100% of the qualifications, we encourage you to apply. At Skyward, we're focused on hiring individuals with the right skills and passion to grow, not just checking off every box.

And now the important part. What we offer you:

  • Medical, dental, vision insurance (fully paid for employees)
  • 15 days of paid leave
  • 7 days of sick leave
  • 2 days bereavement leave
  • 11 paid Federal holidays
  • Up to 40 hours for jury duty
  • 401K with 4% employer contribution (and no vesting period)
  • Up to 4 weeks of paid paternity and maternity leave
  • Company provided laptop
  • $5,000 per year for professional development
  • $600 per year for technical supplies and equipment
  • $2,000 referral bonus
  • Life and disability insurance
  • HSA and FSA
  • Legal Shield and ID Shield Voluntary Benefits
  • Opportunity to work in a collaborative, motivated team focused on modernizing government services with cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions. Who says government work can't be exciting!
We know great work deserves great pay. That's why we ensure our compensation is not only competitive but also fair and transparent, as required by Maryland law. Expect a salary that matches your skills, experience, and the value you bring to the table -because you're worth it!At Skyward, we believe diverse teams are the key to innovation and success. We are committed to creating an inclusive and equitable environment where everyone, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, or background, can thrive. We strongly encourage applications from women, people of color, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. We support flexible working hours and remote opportunities to help maintain a healthy work-life balance for all employees, including caregivers and those with unique needs. Offers of employment with Skyward are contingent upon acceptable results of a background investigation.  PDN-9d6bd041-4554-49e6-880a-e25619aa34fc
