Responsibilities: Concept Development Generate innovative eyewear design and CMF concepts that align with our brand’s aesthetic, fashion direction, and user needs. Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineers, CMF specialists, product managers, and modelers, to explore, develop, and refine frame concepts, silhouettes, and material approaches. Design Execution Create detailed sketches, technical drawings to visualize and communicate design intent. Develop prototypes and color/material mockups to evaluate proportions, fit, and aesthetic quality. Present design proposals to stakeholders and incorporate feedback to refine frames, patterns, and CMF direction. User-Centered Design Conduct fit studies, wear testing, and ergonomic evaluations to ensure frames are comfortable, balanced, and suitable for extended daily use. Iterate on designs based on user insights, testing feedback, and internal reviews to optimize comfort, usability, and visual appeal. Maintain a strong focus on nose bridge fit, temple comfort, weight distribution, and overall human factors. Collaboration and Communication Work closely with engineering, manufacturing partners, and material suppliers to ensure design feasibility and production accuracy. Communicate design rationale, specifications, and CMF decisions clearly to internal teams and external vendors. Participate in design and prototype reviews, offering constructive feedback to elevate design quality and execution. Industry Trends and Innovation Stay informed on global fashion trends, eyewear silhouettes, color directions, and emerging materials. Integrate new design approaches, fabrication techniques, and fashion influences into concept development to keep the collection fresh and competitive.

Exceptional sketching and visualization skills with the ability to communicate design concepts clearly and compellingly. Strong aesthetic sensibility, trend awareness, and an eye for proportion, fit, and fashion relevance. Preferred Qualifications: Strong portfolio showcasing both creative and technical design skills, with an emphasis on eyewear, accessories, or wearable products.
