Job DetailsLevel: ExperiencedJob Location: Carrollton, TX - CARROLLTON, TX 75010Job Category: DesignDESIGN & PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR, LEATHEROLOGY This is a hybrid position working at the office in Carrollton, TX three days a week. Leatherology is looking for a Design & Product Development Coordinator with a sharp eye for detail, a natural instinct for organization, and the drive to keep things on track in a fast-moving environment. You'll play a hands-on role in how a product goes from first concept to launch, with real exposure to every stage along the way. We're looking for someone genuinely passionate about accessories, design, and style, with a real point of view on what makes something look and feel premium. You'll learn the craft from the inside, reporting to and working closely with our Founder & Creative Director. DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES Design & Studio Support Build a close, trusted working relationship with the Creative Director, developing a genuine understanding of the brand's aesthetic vision and design standards. Research and compile design references for concept development: silhouettes, hardware, finishes, construction details, and competitive products. Maintain seasonal inspiration boards for products in development. Manage day-to-day sample coordination — ordering, tracking, cataloging, and archiving samples, and keeping the studio organized and easy to work from so the right pieces are always ready for review. Product Development Coordination Help manage the development calendar: flag upcoming deadlines, track open items, and follow up proactively so nothing falls through the cracks. Assist with product development from concept through final confirmation, supporting sketch reviews and helping translate design intent and corrections into clear spec sheets and communications. Prepare and maintain spec sheets, ensuring every detail — leathers, hardware, dimensions, finishes — is accurately documented and current, with meticulous records in both digital and physical formats. Handle day-to-day factory and vendor correspondence under the guidance of the Creative Director, helping keep development timelines and production schedules on track. Support product QC. Partner with our in-house customer service team and warehouse teams to stay close to customer product feedback — using it to quickly identify any issues and work to resolve. Material & Vendor Management Assist with sourcing and ordering leather, hardware, packaging, and other components alongside our vendor partners. Organize and maintain our leather and material libraries, the reference point for everything we make. Create and maintain digital records including Material Data Sheets (MDS), style confirmations, running change logs, and design handoffs. Help keep trim, hardware, packaging, and logo standards consistent across the line. QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor's degree and 1-3 years of experience in product development, design, production, or project coordination. Internship and co-op experience counts. Strong design sensibility and a genuine appreciation for the Leatherology aesthetic. This is essential. A portfolio, lookbook, or any visual examples that demonstrate your point of view are highly encouraged and do not need to be accessories related. Exceptionally organized and detail-oriented with an obsessive eye for quality. You're the person who catches the thing everyone else missed. Strong written communication. Your emails to a factory are clear, specific, and easy to act on. Creative, self-motivated, positive, and eager to learn with a "whatever it takes" attitude. Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint). Experience with Figma or Photoshop is a plus, as is a willingness to leverage AI tools to work smarter. Willingness to travel periodically, domestically or internationally, if needed.
