trueanomalyinc; Denver (CO); On-site; USD 90,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job summary

True Anomaly seeks a Senior Environmental Graphic Designer to define and shape the physical expression of our brand. You will lead environmental graphic design from concept to installation across workplaces, events, and installations, translating our visual identity into tangible spaces that tell our story.

You will craft flexible design systems, collaborate with internal teams and external partners, and ensure design intent survives fabrication through production oversight and on-site support.

Responsibilities

• Lead environmental graphic design from concept through installation across workplaces, R&D spaces, customer environments, events, exhibits, and branded installations
• Translate True Anomaly's visual identity into physical space, creating new expressions of typography, imagery, information, materiality, and storytelling
• Bring an editorial point of view to physical environments, composing graphics, imagery, artifacts, objects, and digital content into cohesive spatial narratives
• Develop design deliverables that clearly communicate intent: concepts, mood boards, layouts, elevations, material palettes, mockups, presentations
• Design experiences that integrate physical and digital storytelling through displays, projection, motion, interactive content, and product models
• Translate complex technology and ideas into experiences that are compelling and understandable without oversimplifying
• Design branded environments for events, launches, customer demos, and installations, from scalable systems to bespoke moments, in partnership with internal teams and external agencies
• Consider the full audience journey: what draws someone in, what they discover, and what they remember
• Create flexible design systems that scale across different footprints, venues, audiences, and budgets without losing brand integrity
• Support on-site installation, styling, troubleshooting, and final creative decisions when needed
• Own environmental design through production and installation, ensuring creative intent survives fabrication realities
• Prepare and review production documentation: artwork, dimensions, elevations, specifications, material selections, shop drawings, installation guides
• Partner directly with fabricators, printers, sign vendors, architects, contractors, and experiential agencies
• Evaluate materials, substrates, finishes, fabrication techniques, and physical details for quality, durability, cost, and feasibility
• Participate in site surveys, production reviews, installation oversight, and punch-listing as needed
• Understand schedules and budgets well enough to make smart creative decisions and identify risks early
• Define True Anomaly's environmental design language as an extension of the visual identity, creating continuity across digital, print, motion, and environmental expressions
• Establish principles, standards, templates, material approaches, and repeatable systems that enable consistent execution without one-size-fits-all solutions
• Develop guidelines and tools that enable internal teams and external partners to execute the environmental brand
• Build and maintain relationships with a trusted network of fabricators, printers, vendors, craftspeople, and specialty partners
• Continue exploring new materials, technologies, and fabrication methods that push the physical expression of the brand forward and raise the quality bar as the company grows

Job description

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

OUR MISSION

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors - enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

OUR VALUES

Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.

What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.

It's the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.

YOUR MISSION

As Senior Environmental Graphic Designer, you'll define how True Anomaly shows up in the physical world.

This is a ground-floor opportunity to establish the physical expression of a brand at a company in tremendous growth, creating the environmental design language for an entire industry being defined in real time. Our brand increasingly lives beyond the screen: in workplaces and R&D environments, customer spaces, industry events, and installations that make what we're building real.

You'll bring both a designer's and a curator's eye to the work, considering how graphics, language, imagery, objects, materials, and architecture work together to tell a story. The goal isn't to apply the brand to an environment but to make our technology, people, and mission tangible.

You'll sit within Brand & Creative, reporting to the Head of Graphic Design & Brand Identity, and partner closely with Facilities Design, Experiential, and Copy. Your work will span permanent architectural environments and quick experiential projects.

You'll start hands-on, shaping both the work and the systems behind it. As True Anomaly grows, you'll define how environmental design grows as a capability within Brand & Creative.

• Bring an editorial point of view to physical environments, composing graphics, imagery, artifacts, objects, and digital content into cohesive spatial narratives
• Develop design deliverables that clearly communicate intent: concepts, mood boards, layouts, elevations, material palettes, mockups, presentations
• Design experiences that integrate physical and digital storytelling through displays, projection, motion, interactive content, and product models

• Consider the full audience journey: what draws someone in, what they discover, and what they remember

• Support on-site installation, styling, troubleshooting, and final creative decisions when needed
