Job description

What You'll Be Doing: 

  • Design original softgoods from concept to production-ready tech pack across bedding, blankets, cushions, soft toys, draperies, and rugs.
  • Develop and adapt designs across all six MDB Co. brands, with a primary focus on Babyletto and Namesake.
  • Build and maintain tech packs including construction details, material call-outs, colorways, trims, and tolerances.
  • Select and specify textiles, fills, hardware, and trims in collaboration with our sourcing team.
  • Work directly with overseas manufacturing partners in Asia, reviewing samples and communicating revisions clearly and precisely.
  • Develop seasonal color palettes and surface patterns that align with each brand's creative direction.
  • Stay current on softgoods trends in baby, nursery, and home categories and bring relevant insights to the team.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product development, brand marketing, and merchandising to move products from concept to shelf.
  • Manage multiple projects simultaneously and hit deadlines without needing to be chased. 

What You Bring to The Table: 

Required 

  • 5+ years of experience designing softgoods for consumer products, home goods, baby/nursery, or a closely adjacent category.
  • Expert-level Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop skills. You use them daily to create original artwork and build clean, production-ready technical drawings.
  • Strong tech pack creation skills. You build complete packs from scratch, not from templates someone else made.
  • Deep knowledge of textiles and materials including fabrics, fills, weaves, thread counts, trims, and how they behave in production.
  • Experience with textile sourcing, including mill relationships, material specifications, and supply chain awareness.
  • Hands-on experience working with offshore manufacturing partners, reviewing samples, and redlining with precision.
  • A wide design range. You are equally comfortable designing into a clean, modern nursery aesthetic, an approachable traditional bedroom, and a layered maximalist interior.
  • Sharp eye for color, pattern, composition, and surface design.
  • Strong communication skills. You can present your work clearly and advocate for your design decisions.
  • You're able to manage a project by creating a schedule, tracking milestones and key decisions, understanding who needs to be updated, breaking bad news when necessary, and most importantly celebrating wins with the team! 

Nice to Have 

  • Experience with PLM software (e.g., Centric, Bamboo Rose, or similar).
  • Working knowledge of pattern-making or garment construction basics.
  • Experience designing for the baby or children's category specifically.
  • Familiarity with OEKO-TEX, GOTS, or other textile safety and sustainability certifications.Â
