Technical Designer - Women's Design

ROLE OVERVIEW

We are seeking a highly collaborative Technical Designer to act as the primary technical partner to our Design Team. In this role, you won't just manage specs; you will translate creative concepts into production-ready garments while maintaining the "soul" of the design. The ideal candidate has a sophisticated eye for contemporary women’s trends and the technical prowess to execute complex silhouettes.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Collaborate closely with the Design Team from the initial sketch phase to identify potential construction challenges and offer technical solutions that preserve the design intent. Lead fit sessions on live models, capturing the Designer's feedback and translating it into precise technical instructions and pattern corrections. Create and maintain comprehensive tech packs including detailed construction sketches, graded measurement charts, and bill of materials (BOM). Evaluate prototypes for fit, drape, and proportion, ensuring the contemporary aesthetic and quality standards are met at every stage. Serve as the technical point of contact for overseas and domestic factories, providing clear guidance to minimize sample rounds and ensure production accuracy.

ROLE REQUIREMENTS

5+ years of experience in Technical Design, specifically within the Contemporary Women’s market. A deep understanding of contemporary fit trends, fabric behavior, and high-end finishing techniques. Proficiency in 3D pattern‑making software (e.g., CLO 3D, Browzwear/VStitcher) for 3D draping and virtual sampling is a significant plus. Expert knowledge of garment construction, pattern making, and grading. Ability to bridge the gap between creative design language and technical manufacturing requirements.
