We are looking for a highly detail-oriented Tech Pack Designer to join our team and bring custom merchandise concepts from creative development through production.

The ideal candidate has a strong understanding of apparel and merchandise construction, excellent technical design skills, and an exceptional eye for detail. You should be comfortable working across multiple product categories, interpreting creative direction, and creating tech packs that leave little room for interpretation.

• Create detailed, production-ready tech packs for apparel, accessories, packaging, and other merchandise.
• Translate creative concepts, sketches, and artwork into accurate technical specifications.
• Develop detailed flats, construction details, measurements, callouts, material specifications, color information, and artwork placement.
• Prepare organized files for factories and production vendors, ensuring all required information is clearly communicated.
• Create and maintain measurement charts, specification sheets, and grading information as needed.
• Partner with designers, producers, vendors, and manufacturers to resolve technical questions and production issues.
• Review samples and provide clear technical feedback for revisions.
• Track revisions and ensure the latest approved files are used throughout production.
• Review artwork, dimensions, placements, trims, materials, labels, embroidery, screen printing, and embellishment details for accuracy.
• Help establish and maintain consistent technical standards and templates across Beyond Studios merchandise programs.
• Review vendor submissions and samples against approved designs and tech packs.
• Manage multiple projects and deadlines while maintaining a high level of accuracy.

• 3+ years of experience creating tech packs or technical design files for apparel, merchandise, fashion, or consumer products.
• Strong knowledge of garment construction, materials, trims, printing, embroidery, and production processes.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite is required.
• Strong understanding of measurements, specifications, garment terminology, and manufacturing requirements.
• Ability to create clean, organized, easy-to-follow technical documentation.
• Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to catch inconsistencies before they become production issues.
• Strong communication, organization, and project-management skills.
• Ability to work quickly and accurately across multiple projects at once.
• Comfort working from creative direction while making informed technical decisions.
• Experience working directly with domestic and overseas factories or production vendors is a plus.
• Experience with PLM, product development, or production-management systems is a plus.
