For some projects,you may also work with our internal multimedia and graphics experts to develop visual assets and solutions.

This is a 6-12 month temporary assignment with the opportunity to extend further. We are offering a rate of $60-$80/hr on W2 based on experience. If you are selected for this role, you will be employed by our external staffing vendor, or you may contract directly with us as an independent contractor provided you have a business license. You may work remotely. Some travel to see our operations may be required.
