- Build and maintain SOPs as the operation scales from one shop to multiple.

Requirements
- 7+ years in fine-art printing, photo production, or high-end commercial print.
- Deep knowledge of giclée, color profiles (ICC), and paper stocks.
- Operations mindset — comfortable writing SOPs, sequencing a queue, reading a dashboard.
