About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Footwear Materials Developer to support end-to-end materials creation and development within a fast-paced product creation environment.

  • Partner with design and product creation teams to translate design intent into manufacturable material solutions
  • Collaborate with global vendors and manufacturers (including Asia-based partners) to develop and deliver materials on schedule
  • Ensure materials meet performance, cost, quality, and sustainability requirements
  • Track and manage multiple development projects against critical seasonal calendars and deadlines

  • Contribute to seasonal material direction, palettes, and material innovation efforts
What We're Looking For (Must Haves)
  • 6+ years of experience in materials development, product development, or product creation, ideally within footwear (apparel acceptable)
  • Strong understanding of materials creation processes and manufacturing workflows
  • Direct experience working within footwear or performance product creation environments
  • Proven ability to manage complex, deadline-driven development calendars
  • Experience working with external suppliers or manufacturers, ideally global
  • Ability to translate design intent into feasible, production-ready materials
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills across design, development, and supply chain teams
  • High attention to detail with strong ownership and follow-through
Nice to Have
  • Direct experience working with material mills or manufacturers
  • Exposure to footwear-specific product development (running or performance footwear a plus)
  • Familiarity with lab testing and interpreting material performance results
  • Experience in seasonal product creation cycles
  • Background in Materials Science, Chemistry, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
Ideal Candidate Profile
  • Self-starter who can operate independently in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong communicator who can align global teams and external partners
  • Highly organized with strong execution discipline and deadline management
  • Problem solver who can offer alternative material or process solutions
  • Comfortable balancing tradeoffs across cost, performance, sustainability, and design intent
  • Collaborative team player who thrives in cross-functional product creation environments
