Technical Designer, Remote Worldwide

Job Description

WANTED: A TECHNICAL DESIGNER WHO THRIVES WHEN THE PLATE IS FULL.

High volume. Fast turns. Big brands. Zero guesswork.

(APPLICATIONS WILL ONLY BE LOOKED AT BY APPLYING THROUGH OUR CAREERS PAGE:

Every jacket, hat, bag and shoe we make starts as an idea. Your job is to make sure the factory builds it exactly right, the first time. And you’ll have a lot of them moving at once.

On any given day, you’ll have a stack of projects in motion: a jacket for a major brand, a hat for a collab, a bag for our own line, a shoe that needs to hit the factory tomorrow. Every one of them is fast-turn, and every one of them needs to be done at a high level.

We’re Rupt.

We started in 2024 and immediately started doing things differently: fully custom products with a 1-piece minimum, recycled materials, packaging that gets a second life, and global manufacturing that turns ideas into real products fast. Today we’re making products for big brands and for ourselves, and pushing into retail, DTC, apparel and footwear, collaborations and private-label collections.

That means a lot of new products on tight timelines. And every one of them needs a tech pack.

What you’ll actually do

• Run lots of fast-turn tech pack projects at the same time, for big brands and for Rupt, and keep every one on track and on deadline
• Build complete, production-ready tech packs for apparel, headwear, bags and footwear
• Create flat technical sketches, construction callouts, stitch details and artwork placement specs
• Write measurement specs, points of measure and grading for apparel and headwear
• Build bills of materials: fabrics, trims, hardware, labels, packaging and colorways
• Spec decoration methods like screen print, embroidery, patches, woven labels, debossing and more.
• Work with our factory partners to answer questions, review samples and write clear fit and correction comments
• Build templates and libraries so every new product moves faster than the last

You’re probably our person if...

• You have 2+ years building tech packs for apparel, accessories or footwear
• You can juggle a lot of projects at once, on tight deadlines, without anything slipping through the cracks
• You’ve worked on high-level projects for brands that care about every detail
• You’re fluent in Illustrator and Excel or Google Sheets, and you’re fast in both
• You understand construction, points of measure, grading and tolerances
• You’ve worked directly with factories and know what makes a tech pack get built right
• You catch the mistake on page 7 that everyone else missed, even on the fifteenth tech pack of the week

Bonus points

• Footwear, apparel, and headwear tech pack experience
• Experience with PLM software or 3D tools like CLO 3D
• Experience with recycled or sustainable materials

Who shouldn’t apply

• If you like working on one thing at a time, this isn’t your job.
• If tight deadlines stress you out, this isn’t your job.
• If “close enough” works for you, we’re probably not a fit.

The details

• Fully remote, full-time
• Pay based on experience
• High-level work for big brands and for Rupt, across every product category
