Careers
Are you looking for the start to the next chapter in your career? We are always looking for good teammates – the kind that have your back in a water balloon fight at the company picnic but who are also willing to jump in and help when a client needs a project by 9 a.m. tomorrow.
Knit is currently looking for skilled, trained, and motivated Project Team members to work in a highly productive and collaborative firm with a focus on Live, Learn, Work and Play markets. We work as virtual teams with flexible work from home schedules. We have offices in Las Vegas, Nevada; Salt Lake City, Utah; Redmond Washington; Federal Way, Washington; and Moscow, Idaho.

We are committed to greatness both collectively and individually.

If a challenging and high-energy design environment is not your cup of tea, please do not apply. On the other hand, if you are self-motivated and looking for growth opportunities, learning through experiences and getting the most out of your career then send your resume and/or portfolio. At Knit, we are always looking for some talented individuals. Think you might be a good fit? Send your resume and/or portfolio to careers@knitstudios.com.
