About this role

Job Responsibilities

- Design physical products end to end: concept, form, materials, finishes, and construction

- Build 3D CAD models and renders at a near design-for-manufacturing level of precision

- Produce comprehensive tech packs (specs, dimensions, materials, construction notes) that our manufacturing partners can build from without back-and-forth

- Design covers, cards, and other printed/surface graphics that are on-brand and on-trend

- Support the design of packaging concepts across structural form and surface graphics, including mailers, gift boxes, and a brand-forward unboxing experience

- Partner with the Merchandising team on the vendor sampling process: spec, sample, review, iterate, approve

- Partner with the Merchandising team on new product innovation, redesigns, and roadmap feasibility

- Maintain the level of fastidiousness and precision required to translate a design intent into a physical, manufacturable object

Qualifications

- 3–5 years of professional experience in industrial design, physical product design, or a closely related field

- Strong CAD skills at a design-for-manufacturing level; Rhino preferred, SolidWorks or Fusion 360 also considered

- Proficiency with a rendering tool (KeyShot or similar)

- Working knowledge of materials, finishes, and manufacturing processes in paper, metals, woods, stone, and glass

- Strong graphic design sensibility: typography, layout, and an eye for what's on-brand and on-trend

- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)

- A portfolio that shows both physical product thinking (CAD, tech packs, prototypes) and applied graphic design work

- Self-motivated with strong workflow discipline; comfortable owning cross-functional relationships independently

- Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design, Physical Product Design, or equivalent portfolio-demonstrated experience

- Preferred but not required: experience designing paper goods and/or books

The final salary is commensurate with experience, skills, and organizational equity considerations.
