Graphic Designer – Remote Friendly job in Vienna, Austria
Job Overview & Description
🛠️ We are Gauder. We make DIY products better.
🌍 Since 2017, more than 3 million customers across Europe and the United States have ordered from us. Today, we process over 100,000 orders per month.
🎨 Whether in stores or on Amazon, first impressions matter. Within seconds, customers decide whether to buy a product or move on. That’s why design isn’t an afterthought for us—it’s a key driver of our success.
🤝 Working alongside our Head of Design, you’ll shape how customers experience Gauder: through packaging, Amazon listings, and every presentation. You’ll take ownership of your area, make meaningful changes, see their impact immediately, and focus on the details others tend to overlook.
Start Date: Immediately

Location: Vienna, Austria
Salary: Starting at €2,850 gross per month (14 annual payments), with higher compensation depending on qualifications and experience, plus a performance bonus.

Packaging: Design packaging for new and existing products, from initial concepts to print-ready files.
-
Amazon Listings: Create product images, infographics, and A+ Content for our Amazon listings across Europe.
-
Presentations: Develop presentations that stand out from generic slide decks through clear, compelling, and distinctive visual design.
-
Design System: Think in visual systems rather than isolated designs. See our brands not as fixed sets of guidelines but as evolving identities that grow with the company. Continuously refine our visual language and challenge existing solutions, including your own.
Qualifications
-
Education: A degree or formal training in Graphic Design or Communication Design (university, university of applied sciences, or vocational institution). Your skills and portfolio matter more to us than your qualifications on paper.

-
Languages: German and English proficiency at C1 level or higher.
-
Attention to Detail: You notice missing millimeters and misaligned pixels before they become costly mistakes.
-
Mindset: You have strong design instincts and can explain your creative decisions. You approach challenges with curiosity, conduct research, experiment, and ask questions. When there’s no obvious answer, you break down the problem to find a solution.
Nice to Have

Competitive Salary: Starting at €2,850 gross per month, paid 14 times per year. Higher compensation depends on your experience and portfolio. You’ll also receive a performance bonus when the team achieves its goals.
-
Paid Vacation: 28 days of annual leave.
