About X UP BRANDS:

X UP BRANDS manages a portfolio of high-growth e-commerce and Amazon FBA businesses. Our mission is to invest wisely in these brands, build upon their legacy, and preserve each company’s unique ethos. Leveraging our deep expertise in online retail and digital marketing, we provide a robust platform for growth and innovation across our portfolio.

Role Overview:

X Up Brands is hiring a Product Design Specialist to help us build better products than the competition across our ecommerce and Amazon brands. This role is responsible for turning product opportunities into clear concepts, improved designs, factory-ready instructions, and better final products. You will work closely with leadership, product development, design, sourcing, and factories to help create products that are more functional, more differentiated, and more premium than what already exists in the market.

We are looking for someone who can help bring structure, speed, and creative thinking to product development — someone who can take rough ideas, improve them, visualize them clearly, and help move them toward production.

This is a highly important role for our company because great product development is one of our biggest competitive advantages.

Requirements

Create clear visual concept directions for products, including sketches, mockups, annotations, reference boards, and design notes
Work with leadership to refine ideas and make product decisions quickly
Translate product ideas into clear factory-ready development briefs with detailed instructions, measurements, materials, finishes, features, and design intent
Coordinate with internal graphic designers, 3D designers, sourcing team, and factories to ensure concepts are understood correctly
Help manage the development cycle from concept to sampling to revisions to production-ready approval
Review samples and identify what needs to improve in design, fit, usability, appearance, packaging, and quality
Organize product development files, concept boards, revision notes, and final specifications so communication is clear and efficient
Support the creation of a more repeatable product development process across brands
Help ensure products are not just “good enough,” but truly better than the existing market

Key Success Metrics:

Better and faster product concept generation
Clearer factory communication with fewer misunderstandings
Stronger product differentiation versus competitors
Faster sampling cycles with more intentional revisions
Better design consistency across products and packaging
Reduced dependence on the founder for day-to-day concepting and product detailing
A more structured and repeatable product development engine

Qualifications:

3-4 years of experience in product design, industrial design, accessory design, consumer product design, or a similar role
Strong ability to think creatively and practically about how to improve physical products
Ability to turn rough ideas into clear visual concepts and development instructions
Experience working with factories, manufacturers, suppliers, or production teams is strongly preferred
Strong taste level and attention to detail across materials, finishes, proportions, and premium design elements
Comfortable using visual tools such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Figma, or similar design software
Able to organize development work clearly and manage multiple product projects at once
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams
Ecommerce, Amazon, consumer goods, jewelry, wellness, or accessories experience is a plus
3D design understanding or experience working with CAD / rendering teams is a plus
