The Role + Purpose:

The Head of Technical Design is a senior enterprise leader responsible for elevating and unifying the technical design function across J.Crew and J.Crew Factory. Reporting directly to the J.Crew Group Chief Sourcing Officer, this role serves as the critical bridge between creative vision and product execution-leading a high-performing team and ensuring that design intent is translated into exceptional fit, quality, and consistency across all categories. This is a rare opportunity to shape the technical foundation of two iconic American brands at a pivotal moment of growth.

What You'll Do

• Build, mentor, and inspire an industry-leading technical design organization, including category leads and patternmakers across Women's, Men's & Kid's divisions, fostering a culture of excellence, collaboration, and continuous development.

• Serve as the primary technical design partner to the Design teams, developing deep, trusted relationships that ensure design intent is accurately and beautifully interpreted into fit, construction, and overall garment execution.

• Own the end-to-end fit and construction standards across all product categories-knits, sweaters, denim, wovens, and beyond-establishing consistent, brand-right fit philosophies for both J.Crew and J.Crew Factory while honoring the distinct identity of each brand.

• Partner cross-functionally with Production, Materials and Merchandising teams to drive efficient, high-quality product development processes from proto through final approval, maintaining accountability to calendar and cost targets.

• Implement and continuously improve technical design systems, grading standards, spec processes, and PLM workflows to drive operational efficiency and scalability across a multi-brand, multi-division portfolio.

• Build and strengthen relationships with key vendors and mills, aligning on construction capabilities, quality standards, and innovation opportunities to support both brands' evolving product strategies.

• Champion a culture of innovation within technical design-staying ahead of industry trends in fabrication, construction techniques, and sizing to continuously elevate the customer experience and product quality.
