ABOUT NUUDS Most clothes make you think twice. nuuds makes getting dressed easy, so you can walk out the door with confidence. We design clothes for real life and real bodies, through every stage, every season, every version of you. We obsess over fabric, fit, and feel so that getting dressed stops being a decision and becomes the easiest part of your day. nuuds is approachable, elevated essentials made to meet you exactly where you are.  We're growing fast and building a team that's as thoughtful, real, and bold as the brand itself. As a lean team with ambitious plans for continued growth, we understand that our people are the foundation of everything we build. THE OPPORTUNITY We're looking for an Apparel Design Assistant to join our design team and, from first sketch to finished sample, help bring seasonal collections to life. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves the details of the design process as much as the big creative vision. You'll work closely with senior designers on everything from flats and tech packs to sampling and presentations, gaining broad exposure to how a design team actually operates day to day. Above all, we want someone who is eager to learn, takes ownership of their work, and brings energy and positivity to a fast-moving team. If you're organized, adaptable, and excited to grow your design career, we'd love to hear from you. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES * Assist senior designers with concept development, sketches, and seasonal line plans. * Create and refine flat sketches, tech packs, and print/graphic artwork using Adobe Illustrator. * Prepare and organize design files, color palettes, and trim/material references for each style. * Support the sampling process by tracking submissions, fit comments, and revisions. * Maintain organized digital and physical files for color and pattern approvals. * Help prep materials for design reviews, presentations, and cross-team meetings. * Take on new tasks and responsibilities as they arise, with a proactive, can-do attitude. WHAT YOU BRING * Required: proficiency in Adobe Illustrator; comfortable creating and editing flats, prints, and graphics. * Solid computer basics - confident navigating file systems, email, and standard office software (Word, Excel, Google Suite, etc.). * Strong organizational skills with close attention to detail and accuracy. * Proven ability to multi-task and prioritize in a fast-paced, deadline-driven design environment. * A go-getter attitude - self-motivated, resourceful, and eager to take initiative without waiting to be asked. * Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-first mindset. * Genuine interest in apparel, fashion, and design trends. * Degree or coursework in Fashion Design, Apparel Design, or a related field is a plus (or equivalent hands-on experience). * Prior internship or entry-level experience in apparel/design is a plus but not required.
