The ideal candidate is reliable, detail- and team-oriented, and thrives in an extremely fast-paced environment.

Build detailed wash pages and prepare tech packs for production handoff and garment construction.
Ensure art matrixes and tech packs are accurate to design’s vision and that all art is approved through the correct channels.

Request and track all proto and development samples, and manage sample requests while keeping factories accountable.

Work with design on strike-offs, handlooms, lab dips, and fabric and trim approvals.
Check in, hang, and organize all incoming samples; manage sample libraries and wash standards on a consistent basis.
Process samples with the Tech Department to ensure specifications and quality requirements are met, communicating all comments to suppliers.

Fittings, Tracking & Records

Attend all fittings, take notes, and communicate fit notes to cross-functional teams; help revise garments based on feedback.
Maintain and manage the development WIP, including accurate information, costing, and sample due dates.
Update development and sample status weekly and keep the team informed.
Maintain, record, and file all incoming approvals and samples, reviewing with Design for accuracy.
Organize fabric and trim libraries and maintain organized design records for team reference.
Work with the team to ensure design and development calendar deadlines are met.
