Careers - Setting You Up For Success

YOU... thrive most fully when fully challenged – and if a challenge doesn't present itself, you'll hunt one down. Technology pervades your life and you use it everyday to solve challenges. You know that the best software solutions are living, evolving monuments to collaborative endeavor – gifts to the future – not decaying memorials to a simpler past. You love the science of the field, its logic and precision, its rigor, and you live the dictum that that which gets measured gets improved. You embrace completely the pace of discovery and change; while you're zealous about understanding and adopting current best practice, you're also fully aware that today's dogma could well be tomorrow's dog food. You're always learning, learning, learning, forever learning.

We... are similarly extraordinary, diverse (including that rare 50/50 gender split across leadership), C4 values-driven, wildly recalibrating to a new story of business, and living the question: what is the vast potential of corporate culture to be an uplifting force in the world? Technically speaking, of course, Graphik Dimensions Ltd. is the somewhat relentlessly award-winning mothership for a suite of brands (both legacy and emerging) devoted to printing, art, framing and upcycling that began over 50 years ago as a glint in the eyes of 2 childhood sweetheart Artists. Since those early days, the vast potential of it all has only grown, and we have managed to infuse the whole thing with some fairly joyous startup energy. We pride ourselves on being a crucible for new technologist, come and learn with us. Our alumni have gone on to Sr. positions at major companies across the country.
