Salary: Competitive rates per project
Schedule: Flexible hours, project-based
Type: Freelance (100% freelance, not full-time)
Description
This is a remote, 100% freelance position — not a full-time role. It is a great fit for designers looking for additional or supplemental income alongside their existing work or commitments. There may be an opportunity for this role to be converted to full-time in the future. Peanut Technologies provides IT, digital and creative services to restaurants and hospitality groups, serving 100+ restaurants annually through partnerships with technology vendors. We are searching for a Freelance Digital Designer to help with the website segment of our business, creating visual assets for restaurant websites. This designer would take on design projects and manage the pipeline from customer discovery to project delivery. This role does not require any coding or front-end web development expertise, as we do not utilize any coding in our design processes. However, we welcome candidates with any helpful front-end background to apply.

Very competitive rates per project.
Entirely flexible hours — you determine when you want to work as long as you meet deadlines.
