Responsibilities

Breezy Golf: Seasonal Apparel & Headwear (Primary Focus)
Textile & Pattern Design: Create seamless repeat patterns (AOP) for performance polos, ensuring correct scale and color separation
Technical Execution: Translate designs into detailed, factory-ready tech packs. You must clearly communicate sizing, placement, and techniques (embroidery, patches, sublimation) to manufacturers
Fabric Knowledge: Apply a working knowledge of fabrics (performance poly blends vs. heavyweight cottons) to ensure artwork suits the specific garment material
Collection Planning: Move beyond one-off graphics to design cohesive seasonal assortments. You will help build stories for Spring/Summer, Fall/Winter, and major golf majors that allow for proper marketing and inventory planning
Steve-Mart & Middle Class Fancy: POD & Merch (Secondary Focus)
Seasonal Merch Events: Lead the design for high-volume holiday events (Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, 4th of July) for our humor brands, ensuring we have marketable assortments ready in advance
Viral Cultural Moments: Support the "Speed of Culture" by creating quick-turn, wit-driven graphics that capitalize on viral trends and social conversation
POD Workflow: Design specifically for Direct-to-Garment (DTG) and Print-on-Demand constraints, ensuring artwork looks great on standard blanks with fast turnaround times
Production & Design Support (All Brands)
Presentation & Pitch Deck Design: Save the team valuable time by taking raw assets and concepts and assembling them into polished, professional pitch decks for leadership and partners
High-End Retouching: Own the post-production of flat-lay PDP (Product Detail Page) photography, handling color correction and background removal to ensure consistent site imagery
Asset Management: Maintain a pristine Google Drive architecture for all art files, tech packs, and photography
