About the role

Our enterprise customers don't want software. They want a partner who lands on the ground, understands their workflow, and builds Genpire around them.

You'll embed with 3–5 enterprise accounts at a time. Sit with their designers. Train their Brand DNA. Stand up their first collections in-platform. Ship real product. Then take everything you learned and feed it back to product so the next customer needs you less.

Part consultant, part designer, part product manager, part diplomat. High agency is the table stakes.

What you'll actually do

  • Own end-to-end onboarding of enterprise accounts — kickoff to first collection shipped

  • Train custom Brand DNA models on customer archives; coach their teams to use them

  • Spend 20–30% of your time on-site (Mumbai, São Paulo, Milan, NYC — bring your passport)

  • Translate raw customer workflows into product specs the engineering team can ship

  • Run training sessions for customer design teams — you'll teach as much as you do

  • Be the bridge between customer reality and product roadmap; your weekly pushes change what we build

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years in consumer-goods design — apparel, accessories, footwear, or home

  • You've worked with at least one major brand in a senior design or product capacity

  • Deep fluency in tech pack / BOM / factory handoff — you've lived the relay race

  • Comfortable speaking to a CDO one hour and a factory foreman the next

  • High bar for craft and taste; you can tell a good Brand DNA from a bad one in 30 seconds

  • Strong systems thinking — half the job is translating customer chaos into Genpire logic

  • Willing to travel (passport ready, reasonable flexibility on personal life)

Bonus points

  • Time at a top-tier design firm (IDEO, Pentagram, Frog) or in-house at a major brand

  • You've used AI design tools heavily — Midjourney, Vizcom, Krea, Raspberry AI

  • You've built or materially influenced a design system for a consumer brand
