Job Title: Laser SVG File Designer

Location: Remote, both US and non-US residents are welcome to apply

Job Type: Contract, 20 hours per week

Pay: $25 per hour, plus $100 monthly materials stipend 

About Us: Bela Collective is a successful digital shop selling modern and minimal SVG files for laser cutting. As the business grows, we’re looking for a talented contract designer to create high-quality laser SVG files to expand our shop's offerings.

Job Description: We are seeking an experienced designer to create modern, laser-ready SVG files for digital sale. This role is perfect for a modern product shop owner who wants to grow their physical product business while contributing to the growth of a laser file business. The ideal candidate will not only design but also test their files on their own laser machine to ensure quality.

Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with Liz to align with the shop’s modern, minimalist style

  • Design original, high-quality SVG files for laser cutting

  • Test all files using your own laser machine to ensure functionality

  • Provide a commercial-use photo for each completed file

Requirements:

  • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, comfortable with shape builder and drawing tools (we’re all about scoring and acrylic files lately!)

  • Own a CO2 laser machine and the ability to test designs

  • Experience in creating and selling physical products, ideally as a shop owner

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines

  • Ability to provide polished, commercial-use photos for each file

Ideal Candidate: You are a modern product shop owner looking to grow your business. This position will allow you to use the files you create to sell physical products while collaborating with me to grow my SVG file business.

Holiday Considerations: We know the holiday season is a busy time for laser makers, especially if you run a product shop. For the right candidate, we’re happy to offer flexibility. You don’t have to start at 20 hours per week right away—we can onboard you more slowly through the holiday season and ramp up hours in the new year, aligning with your schedule.

How to Apply: Complete the application by November 1. Our team will review submissions and reach out either way by November 4.
