Remote Educational Illustrator

🚀 About the Opportunity

Are you an imaginative illustrator with a passion for education and visual storytelling? We’re on the lookout for a Remote Educational Illustrator who thrives at the intersection of creativity and pedagogy. Our journey began with a simple idea: to make complex learning engaging, accessible, and visually delightful. Since then, we’ve brought lessons to life through artistic collaboration and tech-powered design, impacting thousands of learners worldwide. Now, we’re ready to scale that vision and get even more brilliance into our content. If you're excited by the idea of drawing knowledge into existence from anywhere in the world, this is your canvas.

✏️ What You’ll Be Creating

You’ll craft engaging, age-appropriate visuals for educational materials, including e-learning platforms, animated modules, textbooks, and interactive infographics. Every project you touch will support learners—young and old—as they unlock new ideas through your artistic interpretation. Think anatomy charts with personality, math concepts turned into magical journeys, and science illustrations that could spark the next Einstein.

🎯 Core Responsibilities

• Develop original educational illustrations across subjects and age groups.
• Collaborate closely with instructional designers, content strategists, and curriculum developers.
• Adapt complex topics into intuitive visual narratives without oversimplifying.
• Ensure visual consistency across various digital learning platforms and formats.
• Participate in virtual brainstorms to explore new ways of presenting learning.
• Deliver artwork that aligns with branding, pedagogy, and accessibility standards.

🌎 Remote Work Culture & Environment

We’re a fully remote, internationally diverse team driven by curiosity and purpose. You’ll work asynchronously with a group that values autonomy, radical creativity, and empathetic communication. Time zones don’t block collaboration here—our systems are designed for seamless feedback loops and ongoing creative flow. We celebrate individuality and promote a remote-first mindset that empowers you to produce your best work from wherever you feel most inspired.

🛠 Tools of the Trade

You’ll be free to use your preferred digital illustration software—whether you’re loyal to Procreate, passionate about Adobe Illustrator, or swear by Clip Studio Paint. Experience with vector-based tools and layered file management is key. Familiarity with remote workflow platforms, such as Trello, Figma, or Notion, is a plus. We also love seeing portfolios that feature animated graphics or motion-ready art compatible with After Effects or similar software.

🧠 Desired Qualifications

• Proven experience in educational or instructional illustration (digital portfolio required)
• Excellent visual storytelling and layout composition skills
• Comfort with adapting tone and style per subject matter or age range
• Strong sense of design that supports cognitive engagement and learning goals
• Experience collaborating on remote creative teams
• Knowledge of digital publishing standards and accessibility guidelines (WCAG is a bonus)

🌱 Growth & Creativity

This role is more than a job—it’s a launchpad for your ideas. You’ll have the freedom to experiment, pitch fresh formats, and refine your artistic voice while helping shape how modern learners absorb information. As we evolve, we’ll encourage you to step into art direction, mentor junior creatives, or explore animation if that’s where your curiosity leads you. Here, we measure growth not by titles but by the creativity you dare to unleash.

💸 Compensation & Flexibility

This position offers an annual salary of $72,356. You’ll also enjoy flexible scheduling, creative freedom, and opportunities to work on passion projects within our ecosystem. From asynchronous communication to mental health support, we’re committed to a remote structure that respects your time and well-being.

🎨 Why This Role Stands Out

Our work isn’t about ticking boxes—it’s about creating meaning. Each illustration you produce becomes a bridge between knowledge and understanding. You won’t be lost in a production line. Instead, you’ll be a key voice shaping the narrative of learning. If you're energized by remote visual design, education-forward art, and the idea of redefining digital literacy, we can’t wait to see what you’ll bring to the table.
