We live in car culture — from JDM, Euro, Imports, muscle, classic, off‑road vehicles, and lowriders — and we turn what’s happening in the streets, trails, and at shows into collectible‑scale art. We pride ourselves on being on‑trend, authentic, and deeply connected to the culture that inspires us. We’re looking for a Senior Diecast Graphics Designer who doesn’t just understand car culture — you live it. This role is responsible for designing the graphics that go directly onto our diecast vehicles. Every livery, logo, stripe, and micro‑detail matters. This is not a packaging role. This is not a marketing role. This is about the car itself. The Role As Senior Diecast Graphics Designer, you will own the creation and execution of all vehicle graphics across our product lines. You’ll translate real‑world car culture into production‑ready artwork optimized for diecast manufacturing. You understand scale. You understand print limitations. You understand how graphics wrap across complex 3D surfaces. And most importantly, you understand what makes a car feel right.
