Salary: Dependant on experience
We are seeking a passionate and creative Furniture and Product Designer to join our design team. The ideal candidate will manage day-to-day client drawings and component detailing, while also supporting the development of new collections and custom pieces from concept through to production. This is a hands-on role suited to someone with a strong eye for form and proportion, a solid technical understanding of materials, and an appreciation for fabrication techniques—particularly in metal. The right candidate will be a proactive problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced, design-led environment and is eager to collaborate closely with both designers and makers.
Key responsibilities
• Work with the sales team to produce pre-sales drawings and Design for Approval (DFA) documentation for client approval and internal reference
• Generate production-ready component drawings for laser cutting, water jet cutting, and other fabrication processes
• Work closely with senior designers and production teams to refine concepts and ensure designs are manufacturable and efficient to produce
• Assist in the design and development of high-end furniture pieces, from initial concept through to final product
• Create detailed technical drawings, 3D models, and presentation renderings using industry-standard software such as Rhino, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360
• Prepare material specifications, assembly instructions, and other production documentation
• Research emerging design trends, materials, metal finishes, and fabrication techniques to support innovation and excellence in design
• Participate in prototype development, workshop visits, and product reviews to support the design-to-production process
• Maintain accurate design archives, document design revisions, and manage version control across projects
Qualifications & Skills
• Degree in Furniture Design, Industrial Design, Product Design, or a related field
• 1-3 years of experience (internships or freelance work accepted), preferably within the furniture or creative arts industry
• Strong proficiency in 2D and 3D design software, such as Rhino, Fusion 360, and Adobe Creative Suite
• Experience with 3D visualization software (KeyShot, V-Ray, etc, AI) is a requirement
• Familiarity with metal fabrication techniques (e.g., welding, casting, CNC machining, finishing) is a strong advantage
• Strong hand sketching, visualization, and communication skills
• Exceptional attention to detail, with a high level of craftsmanship and design sensitivity
• A proactive, enthusiastic, and collaborative mindset with a desire to learn and grow within a design-focused team
What we offer
• A dynamic, professional, and fun working environment
• Regular team days and events
