The Role
KITSCH is seeking a Photo Retoucher who brings technical precision, speed, and a high personal standard to a high-volume product photography pipeline. This is not a role for someone who delivers files that are simply done — it is for someone who delivers files they are proud of. You will be responsible for retouching product images to brand standard every week, minimizing revision rounds through disciplined self-review, and contributing to a smooth, predictable post-production operation. If you have a sharp eye, a consistent output, and you thrive in a structured, accountable environment, we want to hear from you.

Job Responsibilities
Image Output & Delivery

• Retouch and deliver a minimum of 20 on-brand product images per week meeting all department standards
• Complete initial retouching within 4 business days of asset delivery — flag blockers immediately, do not wait
• Ensure every delivered file meets the correct background color, shadow application, and standardized collection coloring without exception

Quality & Revision Efficiency

• Self-review every file before submission — approach your own work the way a reviewer would
• Target 90% or more of images approved within 2 rounds of revision; treat anything beyond 2 rounds as a signal to identify and fix the root cause
• Maintain a 98% or higher file accuracy rate on periodic audits across background, shadow, and coloring standards

AI Tool Integration

• Test and integrate at least 2 AI-supported retouching tools — such as background removal, color matching, or batch actions — into your workflow by end of Q2
• The goal is measurable efficiency, not exploration: tools should be actively used, not just tested

Communication & Pipeline Discipline

• Post your workload status in the designated Slack channel within 40 minutes of starting your shift, every day without exception
• Flag any blocker or anticipated delay within 1 business day of identifying it — proactive communication protects the whole team
• Any changes to your standard hours of 8am–4pm PST require pre-approval — flag in advance, not after the fact

File & Pipeline Hygiene

• Organize folders and file handoffs correctly — keep the pipeline clean without being asked
• Contribute to a smooth post-production workflow by maintaining clear, consistent file naming and delivery practices

Core Competencies And Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience in photo retouching with a focus on product or e-commerce photography
• Demonstrated ability to maintain high output volume — 20+ images per week — without sacrificing accuracy or brand consistency
• Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Photoshop; familiarity with Lightroom or comparable tools a plus
• Strong understanding of background removal, shadow application, color correction, and standardized collection coloring techniques
• Disciplined self-reviewer — consistently catches errors before they reach the review stage
• Experience with or demonstrated willingness to adopt AI-assisted retouching tools (background removal, batch color matching, etc.)
• Clear, proactive communicator — flags issues before deadlines, not after
• Reliable and structured — works independently within defined hours and delivers consistently without supervision
• Portfolio demonstrating clean, on-brand product retouching required

What We Bring To The Table…

• Competitive Pay/Benefits
• A dynamic team
• Location: Remote
• An open mind for new ideas
• Growth…growth and some more growth!
