So... what's Residence Supply?

Residence Supply is a design-led lighting and hardware brand that started in South Florida. We make and sell handcrafted chandeliers, sconces, lamps, luxury switches, door hardware, and more. Our customers are interior designers, boutique hotels, and design-minded homeowners. Our work appears in luxury hospitality projects and the press, and we're growing fast.

The mission

You’ll work under our Head of Product. You’ll help decide which products go on our site, what they cost, and how they’re presented. You’ll also design the products themselves. At first, the work is mostly organizing, pricing, and quality control, and over time it becomes more design. If you love physical products, you’ll enjoy both parts.

The responsibilities

Product intake and pricing

• Manage the intake of new products: collect and clean specs, materials, dimensions, lighting details and logistics data.
• Move products through our workflow, sending data to automation tools and asset requests to other teams.
• Review and QC auto-generated Shopify product pages before they go live.
• Set prices for new products from their cost. A good price is low enough that customers buy and high enough that we grow.
• Learn what sells and why, and share your opinion on what we should list and design next.

Product design and development

• Make technical changes and check component fitment in Fusion 360.
• Design CNC-cut foam inserts for our custom packaging.
• Create technical drawings for our overseas factories.
• Build prototypes on our in-house 3D printer, and render concepts in Vizcom.
• Work with suppliers on technical questions.
• Grow into designing new products in hardware, lighting and furniture.

Hands-on in the office

• QC, photograph and organize product samples.
• Physically test fit, finish, function and packaging.

The ideal candidate

• You can 3D model. Fusion 360 is ideal. SolidWorks, Onshape, SketchUp or Rhino all work, and we'll teach you Fusion.
• You notice details. A finish that's slightly off or a dimension that doesn't add up bothers you.
• You enjoy organized work, like spreadsheets, systems and checklists, as well as the creative part.
• You have opinions about good design and can explain them.
• You're curious about the business and want to know why some products sell and others don't.
• You're comfortable in Google Sheets.
• You're a recent graduate, or you built your skills without a degree. Both are great.

Bonus points

• A degree in industrial design, furniture design, architecture, interior design or a related field.
• Experience making technical drawings.
• Experience in product development, sourcing, ecommerce or any job working with physical products.
• You use Claude or ChatGPT regularly. You'll use AI in this role every day, and we'll teach you if it's new to you.

The tech stack

Fusion 360, Vizcom, Shopify, Asana, Google Sheets, Claude and ChatGPT, and a 3D printer.

The end goal

Short term (0 to 6 months): You keep product intake and pricing running smoothly. You own small CAD tasks such as product design revisions and foam inserts from start to finish.

Long term (6 to 12 months): You design new products with the Head of Product across hardware, lighting and furniture.

The details

• On-site at our Doral office, Monday through Friday.
• Occasional travel to trade shows, plus an annual factory visit.
