What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Developer position at Swig Support Team?
If you love taking an idea that does not exist and turning it into something real, this is an opportunity to do exactly that. At Swig, merchandise is a way to extend the brand beyond the store through drinkware, apparel, and accessories people are excited to wear and own. This role is for someone who wants real ownership, thrives in the creative process, and knows how to turn a seasonal idea into a full collection customers genuinely connect with. You’ll define what those products should be, how they look and feel, and how they come together, then work with designers and partners to bring them to life. We need someone who can move with confidence, and can help raise the bar on both the work and the process.
How You’ll Make an Impact:
- Define and develop seasonal merchandise collections across apparel, drinkware, and accessories.
- Own the product development process from concept through launch, including concept validation, feedback, and iteration.
- Build and maintain a forward-looking roadmap so collections are planned ahead of key moments, not reacting to them.
- Collaborate with designers to bring ideas to life, providing clear direction, shaping the creative and refining details.
- Partner with photographers, videographers, and marketing teams to ensure each collection is brought to life clearly and accurately for the customer.
- Create high-quality products we are proud to put into the world, items customers genuinely want.
- Stay in tune with trends and customer preferences, translating them into products that people are excited to buy.
- Manage timelines and key milestones to ensure collections launch when they need to.
What You’ll Bring to the Role:
- 5 years of experience in product development or merchandising within apparel, lifestyle, or consumer brands, with a track record of bringing physical products from concept to market.
- Strong taste and a clear understanding of what makes a collection feel cohesive, relevant, and worth buying, paired with the ability to guide designers and make confident product decisions.
- Experience working with cross-functional partners, including designers, manufacturers, and creative teams, and the ability to move work forward efficiently without sacrificing quality.
- Comfortable balancing creative vision with accountability, working against hard deadlines, and managing multiple product cycles at once.
