About the role

Are you a creative thinker who loves turning ideas into real-world products? We're looking for an Industrial Designer to join our team and help bring new product concepts to life. This is a hands-on role where you'll take designs from sketch through prototype and into production. You'll work closely with engineering, marketing, and manufacturing partners, reporting directly to the Manager of Product Engineering. In this role, you'll play a key part in developing products that balance usability, functionality, and aesthetics.

What You'll Do: Develop and refine product concepts through sketches, 3D modeling, renderings, and prototypes. Translate design ideas into manufacturable solutions while maintaining brand identity and user-focused design. Research materials, ergonomics, and user needs to guide design decisions. Collaborate with engineering to ensure designs are practical, cost-effective, and ready for production. Partner with cross-functional teams to move projects from concept to launch. Prepare presentation materials to communicate design intent to stakeholders. Stay informed on industry trends, competitive products, and design innovations.

What We're Looking For: Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design or related field. 2–5 years of professional experience in industrial design, preferably with consumer products. A strong portfolio that demonstrates creative thinking, technical skill, and experience in sketching, CAD modeling, rendering, and prototyping. Proficiency in industry-standard software (e.g., Solid Works, Key Shot, Adobe Creative Suite). Excellent communication and problem-solving skills. Ability to manage multiple projects, prioritize effectively, and meet deadlines. Passion for creating thoughtful, functional products that enhance the user experience.

Why You'll Love It Here: Take ownership of design projects and see your ideas directly influence real products. Work across the full product lifecycle, from early concepting through production. Collaborate with a supportive, cross-functional team that values innovation. Be part of a company with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality, dependable products.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
