Technical Designer - Pattern Making

We are seeking a Seasoned Technical Designer specializing in pattern making and garment construction for women's athletic wear. This is a full-time leave coverage position primarily supporting Women's Golf with additional support for Tennis. This is a hands-on technical role focused on translating design concepts into precise, production-ready patterns and specifications—not a creative design, graphic design, or marketing position.

What You'll Do

As a Technical Designer, you will be responsible for the research and development of products from conception to retail, ensuring each garment meets the functional needs of athletes and consumers. Your work will bridge the gap between creative vision and technical execution.

Key Responsibilities

• Create technical patterns and detailed construction specifications from designer sketches and concept pictures
• Build patterns from scratch or adjust existing patterns to achieve optimal fit and functionality
• Collaborate with Marketing, Design, and Product Development teams to interpret design concepts into accurate 2-dimensional patterns
• Lead and participate in fit sessions, incorporating styling and fit modifications as needed
• Inspect and critique samples with a critical eye for construction quality and fit accuracy
• Develop and revise product specifications with comprehensive construction details for production
• Provide technical expertise on pattern-making, garment construction, and fit throughout the development process
• Ensure specifications detail construction methods that optimize profitability and manufacturability
• Potentially work directly with athletes to assess functional performance and fit
• Create technical documents and drawings used in the garment manufacturing process
