· Coordinate quality control and testing processes in partnership with internal teams and third-party labs

· Work directly with testing and compliance partners including ITS, V-Trust, FDA, USDA, CPSC, and other regulatory bodies as needed

· Ensure all packaging and products meet legal and retailer requirements including labeling, warnings, UPCs, battery information, and required compliance markings

· Oversee and track all required testing for U.S., U.K., and other applicable markets, ensuring products meet all regulatory standards prior to shipment

· Stay current on evolving compliance requirements and retailer standards through ongoing research and participation in industry workshops

Operational Execution

· Oversee the full sampling process including prototyping, revisions, and final approvals

· Troubleshoot production challenges and implement solutions quickly without disrupting timelines

· Maintain detailed tracking of projects, approvals, costing, compliance status, and production progress across multiple SKUs simultaneously

· Travel as needed to factories, trade shows, and partner meetings

Required Skills & Experience

· Proven experience working with overseas factories and vendors

· Ability to balance speed with structure and maintain momentum across multiple timelines

· Natural focus on margins and cost optimization without sacrificing quality

· Strong product intuition with the ability to improve concepts for manufacturability and retail success

· Resilience under pressure with the ability to adapt quickly and make decisions in real time

· A strong sense of taste and understanding of what will resonate with fans and retailers

Optional but High Value

· Existing factory and vendor relationships

· Trade show experience such as Toy Fair or ASD
