About The Position

Comfrt LLC is seeking a CLO3D Designer to enhance its 3D digital design capabilities across all product categories. This role involves building and maintaining digital libraries for fabrics, avatars, fits, and trims in CLO3D and CLO-SET. The designer will create virtual prototypes to support the technical design team, reduce physical sample rounds, aid in fit evaluation, and expedite the product development process from concept to approval. This is an opportunity for a CLO3D-proficient designer with a strong apparel background to grow within a company committed to digital development.

Requirements

3–5 years of hands-on CLO3D experience in an apparel design or technical design environment.
Portfolio demonstrating virtual garment simulations across multiple categories.
Solid proficiency in CLO3D and CLO-SET, including fabric simulation, avatar calibration, trim building, pattern manipulation, colorway application, and render output.
Strong foundational knowledge of apparel construction, garment fit, and patternmaking.
Ability to identify and communicate fit issues in virtual contexts.
Experience maintaining or contributing to digital fabric, trim, or avatar libraries in CLO3D.
Familiarity with multiple fabrications including knit, woven, fleece, and technical or performance materials.
Clear visual communication skills — able to produce organized, professional CLO3D renders.
Comfortable working cross-functionally with Design, Technical Design, and Sourcing in a remote environment.
Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Microsoft Office Suite.
Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design, Technical Design, Apparel Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent professional experience.
Entrepreneurial, collaborative, and solutions-focused with a positive, can-do attitude.
Strong ability to multi-task and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
Thrives in a high SKU count, fast-paced environment with constantly evolving priorities and timelines.
Highly organized with the ability to work autonomously, manage own schedule effectively in a remote environment, and consistently meet deadlines.
Strong sense of ownership, urgency, and accountability from concept through execution.
Comfortable in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, able to pivot quickly and work long hours when launches demand it.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with Gerber or equivalent patternmaking software; experience working with DXF pattern files.
Exposure to PLM systems and integrating 3D assets into tech pack or product development workflows.
Background in activewear, outerwear, or performance categories with technical fabric simulation experience.
Experience at a DTC or digitally native apparel brand.

Responsibilities

Contribute to building and maintaining Comfrt's CLO3D digital fabric library across Lounge, Fleece, Active, and Outerwear, ensuring accurate simulation of fabric behaviors.
Develop and maintain the trim and hardware digital library in CLO3D, including zippers, drawcords, elastic, labels, snaps, and other components.
Manage and update avatar and fit block assets for Men's, Women's, and Kids size ranges, calibrated to Comfrt's fit standards.
Support fabric scanning and digitization efforts, collaborating with vendors and the sourcing team.
Maintain organized, clearly named digital asset files within CLO-SET, following established conventions.
Regularly audit existing digital assets and flag outdated or inaccurate entries for review and update.
Execute CLO3D virtual prototypes based on technical design direction, ensuring accuracy in construction, drape, and fit.
Produce virtual first fits (1F) for applicable styles, providing clear simulations for review.
Evaluate virtual garments for fit, balance, and construction accuracy, communicating findings through detailed fit notes and 3D exports.
Collaborate with Technical Designers to assess suitability for virtual versus physical first fits.
Create CLO3D render outputs (turntable views, flat lays, construction details) for reviews and vendor direction.
Export DXF pattern files from CLO3D as needed, ensuring alignment with physical production requirements.
Partner with Technical Designers across all pillars to integrate virtual sampling into the development workflow.
Support Design with digital prototyping to evaluate proportion, silhouette, color blocking, and surface detail.
Collaborate with Sourcing and vendors to digitize incoming fabric and trim submissions.
Contribute to evolving digital workflows to reduce sample waste, improve accuracy, and accelerate speed-to-market.
Help maintain CLO-SET platform organization, asset integrity, and access.
Support the documentation of 3D design processes and library standards.
Assist in onboarding team members to CLO3D tools and digital asset workflows.
Stay current on CLO3D software updates, new features, and industry best practices, sharing insights with the team.
