Reporting to and working under the direction of the Experiential Production & Design Manager, this role translates established creative direction into renderings, technical drawings, production artwork, and fabrication-ready documentation required to bring projects from design through production and installation. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role for someone with strong technical design skills and a deep understanding of materials and fabrication. Working closely with internal teams, fabricators, printers, and production partners, the Production Design Specialist applies that expertise to assess what is buildable, resolve production details, and ensure every design is accurately visualized, prepared for fabrication, and executed to Kith’s standards. RESPONSIBILITIES Translate established creative direction into renderings, visualizations, mock-ups, and presentation materials that communicate the look, feel, and spatial experience of each project for internal reviews and partner approvals. Produce 3D models, technical drawings, floor plans, elevations, and dimensioned layouts that translate approved design direction into a buildable, production-ready plan. Prepare print- and production-ready artwork and files for signage, vinyl graphics, environmental branding, wayfinding, packaging, partner lockups, and other experiential applications. Apply working knowledge of materials, substrates, finishes, fabrication methods, and production processes to evaluate feasibility and identify production considerations throughout the project lifecycle. Develop material callouts, finish references, and specification documents, and review proofs, shop drawings, and production files for accuracy and alignment with approved design intent. Support fabrication and production partners by providing clear design documentation, production files, and technical guidance throughout the build process. Revise and refine design work based on feedback from the Experiential Production & Design Manager, escalating significant design changes, substitutions, or deviations from approved direction for review and alignment. Support installations and walkthroughs on-site as needed, assisting with quality-control reviews and helping resolve technical and production details to ensure the build aligns with approved design intent. Maintain organized project files, design assets, templates, and version control, and support recap presentations through layout, formatting, and the organization of project photography and supporting materials. REQUIREMENTS Minimum 3+ years of experience producing design and production deliverables for experiential, retail, exhibition, environmental, or scenic design projects, translating established creative direction into built work. A strong portfolio demonstrating 3D renderings, environmental graphics, technical documentation, production-ready artwork, and built or physical design work. Advanced proficiency in SketchUp, with the ability to independently create accurate 3D models of physical environments, quick design-development mock-ups, and supporting visualizations that communicate design intent.
