Job description

About Million Dollar Baby Co.

Million Dollar Baby Co. started in 1990 and is proudly family-owned and operated in Los Angeles. Since then, MDB has grown to 7 distinct brands of children's furnishings ranging in style, aesthetic, and price, while carrying some of the industry's most eco-conscious and award-winning designs. We can be found in retailers like Target and Amazon, and specialty retailers like Pottery Barn Kids and Crate & Barrel.
Under the Million Dollar Baby Co. parent company are our family of brands: Babyletto, daVinci, Nursery Works, and Namesake. We're proud to offer the most Greenguard Gold–certified cribs on the market and to use FSC-certified sustainable wood across our brands whenever possible. We've also pioneered Styrofoam-free packaging for several of our best-selling collections — an innovation that reduces waste while protecting our products during shipment.
At Million Dollar Baby Co., our team members are our #1 priority, and we partner with exceptional partners and retailers around the world who share our core values:
Treat Your Team Like Family — lead with respect, gratitude, empathy, and kindness.
Make an Impact, Drive Results — focus on meaningful work that moves families forward.
Deliver a "Wow" Customer Experience Every Time — every detail matters.
Strive for Continuous Improvement & Learning — keep growing, keep getting better.
Cultivate Quality Conversations — communicate honestly and thoughtfully to build trust.
Over the years, our commitment to people, innovation, and a positive workplace culture has earned us five consecutive "Best Place to Work" awards, one of the best workplaces by "Built in LA", a 4.6 rating on Glassdoor, and 13 years on the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list — recognitions that reflect the heart of who we are and the community we're proud to build. We'd love to talk to you!

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.
California pay range
$90,000—$105,000 USD

Our Benefits:

  • 100% of your health, dental and vision insurance monthly premiums paid by us! 
  • Flexible PTO because we respect the need for work/life harmony 
  • Company matching 401(k) 
  • Vacation reimbursement and wellness and enrichment subsidy programs 
  • Tuition reimbursement 
  • Matching charitable donations to the nonprofit organization of your choice 
  • Free MDB Co. swag + generous employee discount on products
