DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION

quip is a design-led oral health and wellness company that launched in 2015 and is on mission to change oral care habits from a have-to chore to a want-to ritual. quip creates bold, simple, design driven products that are backed by science and intuitive to use, which empower everyone to proactively make their mouth part of their daily wellness routine. quip's current personal care offerings include the American Dental Association accepted (ADA seal) adult and kid electric toothbrushes, smart brushes, rechargeable water flosser, refillable floss string, refillable gum and mints. All products are designed to help people build good oral care habits.

quip is a truly omni-channel business with strength in DTC, Retail, Amazon and Dental Professional DTC channels.

We are looking for a Contract Sr. Industrial Designer (6 months) to lead design strategy and execution for our hardware and consumables product roadmaps. This role is based in our Brooklyn office.

You'll work with multiple disciplines and guide concepts, thinking, research, and high fidelity form development for our newest products. You'll also collaborate deeply with marketing, creative, and digital product teams to inform design-focused solutions across the company. You will play a leading role facilitating deep dives into concept development, brainstorms, and workshops to define future innovations as well.

You should not only be adept at communicating concepts through various mediums (sketches, renderings, 3d modeling) but be able to guide and support our Product team and external Partners to develop their own skillsets at the highest level.

quip's Product team prides itself on creative problem solving while following best practices for product commercialization. When we envision a product with unparalleled user experience, it requires a rigor of method, a depth of intelligence, and a penchant for delight not found in everyday products.

If you're ridiculously passionate about good design and the consumer experience, we want to work with you.

• Define quip's design ethos and strategy across multiple mediums, paying attention to every detail of a product including packaging, digital, material, finish, weight, and user experience
• Ability to think both strategically and practically about design in order to achieve schedule, margin, quality, and manufacturability
• Ability to translate inputs from a variety of sources including Customers, Consumer Research, and Industry Trends into defined product concepts and features
• Serve as an ambassador for product at quip, bringing your passion to both internal stakeholder reviews, as well external events such as brand and product launches, influencer events, and even media engagements!
  
  

REQUIREMENTS

• 8+ years of professional Industrial Design experience, preferred in consumer electronics or personal care products.
• Extensive experience with manufacturing processes such as injection molding, mold and fixture making, stamping, plating, painting, casting
• Strong familiarity with manufacturing engineering, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering principles
• Strong concept development techniques utilizing 3D modeling, sketching, sculpting, or other rapid processes
• Knowledge and ability to use tools such as SolidWorks, Rhino, Keyshot, and Adobe Creative Suite, as well as guide others in their right application.
• Ability to design user experience sessions, design research sessions, and /or innovative ideation sessions
• Familiarity with prototyping solutions with a mix of samples, handwork, FDM printing, and SLA 3D printing (Form 4)
• Understanding of and familiarity working with product commercialization processes (milestone or phasegate based)
• Experience partnering and working with global contract manufacturers to achieve design vision and product requirements
• You are naturally curious and take initiative to open up new ideas not just by suggestion, but through persuasive prototypes, and other media

• Hybrid working environment, with an office located in Dumbo, Brooklyn
• Year round early "summer Fridays"
• Dog-friendly office space
• Fully stocked kitchen with snacks (make sure to use your quip after snacking!)
