Description
We are looking for a CAD Specialist with deep expertise in digital pattern development, grading, and marker efficiency. This role sits at the core of our technical design processtranslating vision into scalable, production-ready styles for everyday wear that feels better, fits better, and lasts longer. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Develop, modify, and grade digital garment patterns using CAD software (e.g., Lectra, Gerber AccuMark, Optitex, Tukatech). Create optimized marker layouts to ensure minimal fabric wastage while maintaining construction quality. Ensure all digital patterns meet production, fit, and quality standards and are aligned with brand specs. Perform fit analysis using virtual 3D simulations or physical samples and make accurate pattern corrections. Work closely with the design, sampling, and production teams to preserve design intent while maintaining manufacturing feasibility. Prepare and manage technical specs, construction sheets, and size charts . Organize and maintain a clear digital archive of patterns and markers with proper versioning. Troubleshoot any CAD-related issues and ensure efficient resolution with minimal downtime. Participate in proto reviews, fittings, and production handovers to ensure pattern accuracy and readiness. Stay informed about different fabric types, their behavior , and their impact on fit and construction.
