Graphic Design & Technical Communications Co-Op
STR is seeking a creative, detail-oriented Graphic Design & Technical Communications Co-Op to support the development of compelling visual communications for complex engineering and technical projects. This role is ideal for a student who enjoys combining graphic design with analytical thinking and has an interest in learning about advanced technologies.
The primary focus of this position will be creating and refining technical presentations, particularly in Microsoft PowerPoint, to help engineers and researchers communicate sophisticated concepts clearly and effectively. The ideal candidate will be curious, collaborative, and comfortable working with technical subject matter experts to understand their work and translate complex information into accessible, visually engaging graphics and presentations.
Additional responsibilities will include supporting corporate branding efforts, maintaining visual consistency across presentation materials, and developing graphics for internal communications and signage.
This is for an in-person role at our Woburn, MA office, with an ideal start date in January 2027.

Preferred Qualifications
Ideal Candidate
The successful candidate will be more than a traditional graphic designer. They will be a visual problem-solver who enjoys understanding how things work.
They do not need to arrive with an engineering background, but they should be excited by the opportunity to learn from engineers and scientists, ask questions, and find creative ways to explain complicated ideas. They should be equally comfortable designing a polished technical presentation, building a clear systems diagram, and applying consistent branding to corporate materials.
Above all, we are looking for someone who recognizes that effective technical design is not simply about making information look attractive – it is about making complex ideas easier to understand without sacrificing technical accuracy.
