Technical Designer / Product Engineer

Role Summary

MWW On Demand is seeking a hands-on Technical Designer / Product Engineer to convert customer and product requirements into complete, manufacturing-ready technical packages. This person will own patterns, measurements, grading, construction specifications, BOMs, tech packs, fit and product-level quality requirements, while partnering closely with Manufacturing Engineering on how the product is produced.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain patterns, blocks, grading rules, measurements and tolerances for applicable sewn/textile products.
• Create clear technical drawings, construction specifications, tech packs and BOMs.
• Translate customer concepts, samples and artwork into controlled manufacturing specifications.
• Evaluate samples for fit, dimensions, construction and manufacturability; issue corrective actions and approve product-definition changes.
• Maintain reusable product standards, blocks, components and revision-controlled technical records.
• Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Sourcing and Production during product launch and troubleshooting.
• Use modern digital product-development and AI-assisted tools to reduce repetitive documentation and improve reuse of existing product knowledge.

Ideal Candidate

• Practical technical-design or product-engineering experience in apparel, sewn products, home textiles or a comparable manufacturing environment.
• Strong understanding of pattern development, grading, garment/product construction, fit, seams and measurement control.
• Experience building production-ready tech packs and BOMs.
• Comfort working directly with a factory rather than operating only as a design-office role.
• Able to communicate product requirements clearly to Production and Manufacturing teams.
• Organized, detail-focused and comfortable managing revisions and multiple product families.

Preferred Digital Skills

• CLO 3D, Browzwear, Gerber, Lectra or similar pattern/3D development systems.
• Excel and structured product data/documentation systems.
• Knowledge-search or digital product-development tools; willingness to learn is more important than prior expertise.
