  • 3–5 years of professional experience in apparel design, preferably in streetwear, sportswear, or fast-fashion (experience with brands like Adidas or Nike is a plus).
  • Proven expertise in Adobe Illustrator and the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, etc.); strong ability to create graphics, prints, and technical specifications.
  • Solid understanding of fast-fashion workflows, including rapid prototyping, material selection, and production processes.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience managing overseas vendor relationships and following through on feedback.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven setting, demonstrating efficiency, adaptability, and a proactive problem-solving mindset.
  • Passion for streetwear/sportswear, sports culture, and design innovation, with a keen eye for trends and visual storytelling.
  • Strong ability to balance aesthetics, functionality, and commercial viability in design concepts.
