Job description

Role & responsibilities

1. Research & Concept Development

• Interpret client briefs, product requirements, target users, market needs, and project objectives.
• Conduct product and competitor research, trend analysis, and design benchmarking.
• Lead brainstorming and ideation; explore alternatives through hand sketches, mood boards, form studies, and concept narratives.
• Evaluate concepts for aesthetics, usability, functionality, and feasibility, then recommend a clear design direction.

2. Industrial Design & Visualization

• Develop product form, proportions, ergonomics, and CMF (color, material, and finish).
• Create 2D sketches, 3D models, and high-quality renders to communicate concepts and support client presentations.
• Build clear visual presentations that explain the design rationale, key features, and intended user experience.
• Refine concepts based on feedback while maintaining design intent and visual quality.

3. Client Communication & Collaboration

• Present concepts and explain design decisions, gather feedback, and manage design iterations with clear communication.
• Work with R&D, engineering, sourcing, and production teams to align the design with project requirements.

4. Prototype Development & Validation

• Create mock-ups, low-fidelity prototypes, and digital or physical models to explore and validate concepts.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to develop functional prototypes and communicate design intent during handover.
• Review prototypes for aesthetics, ergonomics, proportions, and usability; identify gaps and recommend improvements.

5. Product Graphics & Packaging

• Design product-related graphics, labels, icons, product markings, packaging artwork, and instruction-manual layouts as required.
• Create product feature graphics, infographics, and visual guides that support product communication.
• Prepare print-ready artwork and coordinate with relevant teams or suppliers for implementation.

6. Design Delivery & Workflow

• Maintain organized design files, presentations, renderings, and revision records.
• Research relevant materials, finishes, technologies, and design methods to inform design decisions.
• Use AI-assisted tools where helpful for ideation, visualization, and workflow efficiency.
• Manage assigned tasks and timelines while maintaining quality and consistency.
