Role Title: Graphic and Editorial Design Expert

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

Opportunity Snapshot

Pay: $55 to $100 per hour

Location: Fully remote, worldwide

You’ll need: Professional experience designing for print, web or publications for a company, studio, publisher or client

Your tasks: Review designs and briefs, judge layout, readability and brief match, and explain your decisions in writing

You’ll review graphic and editorial design work and judge it: what works, what doesn’t, and why. This is a good fit if you work as a graphic designer, editorial designer, layout designer or art director and make decisions about how a page, a publication or a brand piece looks and reads.

Scope of Work

  • Look at designs (posters, covers, page layouts, brand pieces) and judge which one is stronger for a given brief and audience.
  • Check hierarchy, spacing, type choices, color and how text and images work together.
  • Flag problems that would show up in production (wrong format, low resolution, margins, print color).
  • Check that a design fits the brief and the brand or publication style.
  • Write a short explanation for each decision so a reviewer can follow your reasoning.

What we’re looking for

  • Professional work as a graphic designer, editorial designer, layout designer, publication designer, art director or brand designer.
  • Daily use of professional tools such as InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop or Figma.
  • Experience with real jobs: briefs, revisions, production files and delivery to a client or publisher.
  • Comfort explaining why one design works and another doesn’t.
  • Clear written English.

How the selection process works

  • Apply with your resume and a short profile.
  • Complete the curation interview. It is a short conversation about your experience with exhibitions, collections and attribution. You don’t need to prepare, look at anything or write anything. Finishing it is what moves your application forward.
  • Review. We check your experience against what the project needs.
  • Onboarding and first task. If selected, you get the guidelines and start with an initial task, which is reviewed before you continue.
Applying via micro1: micro1 screens with an AI interview ("Zara") and pays weekly once placed. Free to apply; most roles are long-running contracts.
