TECHNICAL PRODUCT DESIGNER – Soft Goods
Portland, OR You are a self-starter, team player and hands-on with experience in designing, patterning and prototyping soft good products and assemblies. You love solving problems and enjoy the creative process of building a physical sample to prove out an idea. From concept to production, you know the commercialization process and how to guide a project from napkin sketch to a production ready confirmation sample. You sweat the details because you want to deliver solutions that exceed the client’s expectations.
What you’ll do
Work on innovation design projects in consumer electronics, sportswear, wearables, medical tech, VR/AR, and aerospace
Design and fabricate in Terrazign’s 6,000 square foot soft goods studio and machine shop
Collaborate with project design leads to build design plans, create concepts and set deliverables for client projects
Pattern soft good components, design 3D tooling and fixtures, construction functional prototypes and test samples
Build presentation assets and communication tools that clearly describe decision making and design solutions
Work with the client’s design, engineering, and manufacturing team members to be solution oriented to resolve project design and manufacturing issues
Continually grow your knowledge of textile/material properties, soft good manufacturing processes and product industry standards
Deliver the highest quality output with attention to all construction and material details
What you’ll bring
Background in Industrial Design or Engineering with a focus on technical soft goods design, product engineering or innovation
Experience designing and prototyping technical soft good assemblies: wearable tech, VR/AR, on body medical devices, CE assemblies
3+ years of experience working on a creative team
Ability to approaching product design problem solving through the design thinking iterative process, scientific method, or engineering principles
Comfort building physical soft good assembly prototypes to a “production ready” or “golden sample” level
Knowledge of soft good materials and assembly techniques
Ability to create 2D patterns for 3D objects
CAD skills (rhino, Fusion 360, or equivalent)
