About 1000 Miles

1000 Miles is an international product company with a team from 7 different countries. We design our own products from scratch and sell them on Amazon across the US, Canada, UK, and Germany. We move fast, use AI tools daily, and we own everything we create — the ideas, the designs, the brands.

Children's Book Illustrator
We're looking for a talented illustrator to create engaging and detailed artwork for interactive children's books.

The ideal candidate has strong experience in kids' book illustration and can create clean, playful, and visually rich scenes that encourage exploration and interaction.

?? Important: Our characters, brand guidelines, and visual style are fully developed. Your job is to work within this system — not reinvent it. Every illustration must stay consistent with what already exists. Revisions will be requested whenever something drifts from the brief, and attention to detail in matching the established style is the most important skill for this role.

Check out our brand here ???? ----------

What You'll Do:
Illustrate scenes for interactive children's books — environments, characters, outfits, and interactive elements
Work entirely within our existing brand system — characters, style, and visual language are already defined and must be followed exactly
Collaborate closely with our team using provided references, briefs, and style guides
Prepare final artwork suitable for print production
Requirements:

Proven experience in children's book illustration or similar work
Strong skills in composition, color, and storytelling through visuals
Ability to create detailed, layered illustrations suitable for interactive formats
Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator / Photoshop or similar tools
Good communication and openness to feedback
Nice to Have:

Experience with children's activity books
Understanding of print-ready file setup
