[Hiring] Product Development Associate @Fresh Prints

Role Description

We’re looking for a Product Development Associate who enjoys the technical side of bringing garments to life. Someone who cares about the details, catches inconsistencies, and thinks about how their work affects the next person in the process:

• Can a supplier follow these specs without guessing?
• Do the sample, tech pack, art proof, and website information agree?
• What needs to be resolved before this moves into production?

If you enjoy solving problems, getting the details right, and seeing your work become something people wear, I’d love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Create and update tech packs for assigned new products, existing garment revisions, and Collab or client requests, including measurements, construction details, and fabric specifications.
• Review samples and document feedback, including QA findings, technical issues, and required revisions.
• Check art proofs and briefs for garment accuracy, print compatibility, and production limitations.
• Support supplier development by preparing technical specifications, reviewing supplier submissions, and coordinating follow-ups with suppliers and internal teams.
• Keep product information accurate across technical records and website descriptions, specifications, colorways, and imagery.
• Support new product development through tasks assigned by the Team Lead, flagging missing information, discrepancies, and potential production issues.

Qualifications

• 3 to 5 years of experience in fashion design, apparel technical design, or product development.
• Proven experience creating prints, CADs, and production-ready tech packs for apparel.
• Experience communicating with manufacturers and managing sampling revisions.
• Portfolio showcasing printed garments and technical design work (CADs + tech packs required).
• Strong organization skills with clear production and timeline awareness.
• Bachelor’s degree in Fashion Design, Apparel Design, or a related field preferred.

Requirements

• Commercial awareness and ability to execute within defined brand and market direction.
• Advanced Adobe Illustrator skills (print design + garment CADs).
• Working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop.
• Strong understanding of garment construction, materials, and fit.
• Confident English communication for factory and cross-team coordination.
• Highly detail-oriented with strong ownership of documentation and QA accuracy.

Benefits

• 2-month paid Sabbatical to eligible employees.
