Job description

Aamra is a semi-fine jewelry brand launching in North America — quiet luxury, modern craft, priced $100–450, sitting confidently between disposable fast-fashion jewelry and high-commitment fine jewelry. We are a founding team building from the ground up.

While Aamra is a fresh name in modern fashion, our roots run incredibly deep. Aamra is curated in partnership with Amrapali, a name that has defined fine jewelry craftsmanship for over 40 years. For more than three decades, Amrapali’s master artisans have designed breathtaking, custom handmade jewelry for global celebrities, royalty, and the world’s most exclusive red carpets.

Role - Jewellery Design Intern

We are looking for a creative, detail-oriented and design-driven Junior Jewellery Designer to join our design and product development team. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in jewellery design, an eye for aesthetics, curiosity about materials and craftsmanship, and the ability to translate ideas, references and trends into thoughtful, commercially viable jewellery designs.

This role is ideal for a young design professional with 6 months to 1 year of industry experience who is eager to develop their creative abilities while gaining practical exposure to the complete jewellery design process — from research and conceptualisation to design development, sampling and production.

We are particularly interested in candidates from NIFT, Pearl Academy or similar reputed design institutes who can demonstrate originality, strong design fundamentals, a refined visual sensibility and a genuine passion for jewellery.
