Job Description

We are seeking a versatile Assistant/Associate Apparel Graphic Designer. This is primarily an Apparel and Headwear design role focused on the Breezy Golf brand, where you will work on traditional apparel production timelines, seasonal collections, and technical development. Please Note: This is an Apparel Art/Graphic Design role first, not a Marketing Design role. While you may assist with presentations, your primary focus will be on garments, tech packs, and textile patterns—not social media graphics, email banners, or ad creatives. This is a remote position, prioritizing candidates on PST.

Responsibilities

• Breezy Golf: Seasonal Apparel & Headwear (Primary Focus)
• Textile & Pattern Design: Create seamless repeat patterns (AOP) for performance polos, ensuring correct scale and color separation.
• Technical Execution: Translate designs into detailed, factory-ready tech packs. You must clearly communicate sizing, placement, and techniques (embroidery, patches, sublimation) to manufacturers.
• Fabric Knowledge: Apply a working knowledge of fabrics (performance poly blends vs. heavyweight cottons) to ensure artwork suits the specific garment material.
• Collection Planning: Move beyond one-off graphics to design cohesive seasonal assortments. You will help build stories for Spring/Summer, Fall/Winter, and major golf majors that allow for proper marketing and inventory planning.
• Steve-Mart & Middle Class Fancy: POD & Merch (Secondary Focus)
• Seasonal Merch Events: Lead the design for high-volume holiday events (Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, 4th of July) for our humor brands, ensuring we have marketable assortments ready in advance.
• Viral Cultural Moments: Support the "Speed of Culture" by creating quick-turn, wit-driven graphics that capitalize on viral trends and social conversation.
• POD Workflow: Design specifically for Direct-to-Garment (DTG) and Print-on-Demand constraints, ensuring artwork looks great on standard blanks with fast turnaround times.
• Production & Design Support (All Brands)
• Presentation & Pitch Deck Design: Save the team valuable time by taking raw assets and concepts and assembling them into polished, professional pitch decks for leadership and partners.
• High-End Retouching: Own the post-production of flat-lay PDP (Product Detail Page) photography, handling color correction and background removal to ensure consistent site imagery.
• Asset Management: Maintain a pristine Google Drive architecture for all art files, tech packs, and photography.

Requirements

• 2–4+ years of experience in Apparel Graphic Design
• Portfolio Requirement: Must show examples of Apparel Art/Graphic Design (primary) and graphic/merch work (secondary). Portfolios consisting solely of marketing/social assets will not be considered.
• Strong knowledge of garment construction, tech packs, and print techniques.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and manage designs across multiple brand voices.
• A "Hybrid" Creative: You have the technical discipline for apparel development but the sense of humor required for viral merch.
• An Apparel Expert: You understand that a logo sits differently on a performance hat than it does on a vintage-wash cotton tee. You design with the end product in mind.
• Software Expert: You are a star in Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. You are proficient in Figma for layout/web assets and open to using AI tools for rapid ideation.
• Service-Oriented: You are happy to jump in and build a deck or retouch a photo to help the Art Director and the wider team move faster.

Nice-to-haves

• Passion for Golf/Sports: A genuine love for golf or sports culture is a huge plus. We value someone who understands the lifestyle, the gear, and the aesthetic intuitively.

Benefits

• At Doing Things, you make an immediate impact.
• Doing Things is a start-up made up of smart, talented and driven people looking for other potential team members with the same attitude of innovation and excellence.
• We offer incredible opportunities to learn and work on projects that are at the forefront of the internet media landscape and are transforming digital advertising.
• We offer competitive compensation that includes cutting edge work and the opportunity to join a rapidly growing startup with a proven product.
