Product Development Associate, Apparel

Associate Product Developer

Huckberry is hiring an Associate Product Developer to support the House Brands Team. This is a foundational role built for someone who thrives on clarity, consistency, and collaboration—and is ready to step into a fast-paced, detail-driven environment. The ideal candidate is eager to learn, takes initiative without needing a nudge, and takes pride in being someone others can count on.

In the near term, you will be responsible for the core operational work that keeps development moving: managing samples, following up with vendors, organizing files and tools, and supporting the team's day-to-day rhythm. Over time, this role offers the opportunity to take on greater ownership across categories, vendors, and internal processes.

Responsibilities

• Support the Product Development Manager in keeping development timelines on track across multiple apparel categories
• Open, sort, and log incoming submits and samples
• Maintain accurate trackers and update sample flow tools to ensure alignment across the team
• Review and validate samples against references and Bill of Materials.
• Follow up with vendors overseas and domestically to collect outstanding quotes, samples, and development details
• Build and maintain sample charts, checklists, and reference files
• Coordinate lab dips, fabric/trim approvals, and other development submits
• Keep sample and submit storage areas tidy, labeled, and accessible
• Take notes in cross-functional meetings and follow up on next steps
• Assist with ad hoc tasks, one-off projects, and administrative support as needed
