Looking for an illustrator javascript expert to help adapt our existing workflow
Hi All,
I hope this is OK to post here, we've tried via freelancer style sites to hire before and they all want to design me a logo rather than what we want... so thought we would come to the source!
Our business currently processes around 4,000 custom laser cut/engraved orders every week using our automation across 300 or so designs to 1 media type. We are looking to adapt this to offer these designs onto a new media type which has a few extra paramaters required to create a new product.
We therefore want to evolve the existing process which is made up of several javascripts to create cut/engrave files for this new product. We can utilise the data we have for artwork alignment in our exisitng library too.
The current system is quick, we can go from a CSV file to finished cutter files in around 5 minutes. It is solid and helps fully automate around 60% of our artwork without us even having to touch it - meaning we can work with a small team and keep our costs low - so it is incredibly important and we don't want to break it! We simply want use the principles already in place to adapt it. The remaining 40% is manually kerned and aligned by our art team and exported to our library so the data is there for next time we get an order for this data against this design... someting which again is invaluable and important not to break as the more data we add to the library, the more artwork becomes completely automated next time.
We are looking for someone with lots of experience in javascript, illustrator and automation who would be keen to start straight away? I would be happy to jump on a google meet and show you the process and products after a successful application via a PM please? We expect this to take the right person 2-3 days plus any time needed getting up to speed with our current system - hopefully 1/2 a day.
We are UK based (for time zone) I am generally working 7 days a week at the moment so if you wanted to discuss further and had the skills I would be happy to chat to you anytime that I am in.
Thanks all 🙂
