Product development sits at the center of the business — working from market insight through to finished product, and partnering directly with our engineering, sourcing, and factory teams around the world. It is a collaborative group where designers own their work end to end and see it reach the market quickly.
Position Summary

We are looking for a designer with a genuine point of view who can create cohesive collections across both mid-range and premium price points.

Someone who can see an opportunity in the market and answer it with a complete, considered collection.

In this role you will create across our full portfolio of decorative and architectural lighting, outdoor lighting, and ceiling fans, carrying products from original concept through approved production sample. You will translate trends, customer insight, historical reference, and market opportunity into products that are both beautiful and commercially successful — and you will be equally at home presenting design direction to leadership and reviewing a sample on the factory floor.

Taste matters here, and so does range. The ability to shift design language and cost structure between our collections while protecting design integrity is central to the work.

Location: This is approved to be Remote in the US or will be hybrid if you are located in one of our preferred locations: Southern California, Atlanta, Dallas, Cincinnati or Newport News.

Regular travel expected to various domestic offices (GA, CA, TX, OH, VA) and international manufacturing partners.
