About Paire
At Paire, we design everyday essentials with elevated comfort, thoughtful function, and a deep commitment to sustainability. As we expand into wireless bras and underwear, we're seeking an experienced Freelance Garment Technician to help bring this new category to life — working closely with our Design Lead from concept development through to production.
The Role
Working closely with our Design Lead, you'll manage the technical development of our wireless bras and underwear range — ensuring every style delivers precision fit, lasting comfort, and production efficiency.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate design sketches into clear technical specification sheets, advising on best practices for construction, fit, and fabric application.
- Prepare and review samples ahead of fittings — checking measurements, verifying factory specs, assessing workmanship, and making amendments as needed.
- Lead fit sessions with the Design Lead, offering technical advice and proposing construction solutions.
- Process fit comments and communicate clear instructions to offshore suppliers — including annotated photos, diagrams, or videos.
- Liaise with suppliers daily to troubleshoot fit issues and workshop production-friendly methods.
- Maintain consistent garment measurements, grading, and workmanship across styles and factories.
- Define and manage grading rules and tolerances specific to bras and underwear.
- Identify and flag potential production or delivery issues at the PP stage, collaborating with the Design Lead and broader team.
- Review product returns and ensure recurring concerns are addressed.
- Maintain clear records of all PP samples and reference garments.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years experience as a Garment Technician, with expertise in wireless bras, briefs, and stretch intimates.
- In-depth technical knowledge of fit, fabric performance (stretch and recovery), and lingerie construction.
- Experience working with offshore suppliers and resolving production challenges.
- Strong communication and documentation skills — both written and visual.
- Detail-oriented, methodical, and confident in a fast-paced environment.
- Comfortable working independently while thriving in close collaboration with a small team.
- Based in Melbourne or able to attend fittings in person.
What We Offer
- The opportunity to shape Paire's new underwear category, applying your expertise to set the technical foundation for future ranges.
- Freelance work with flexible hours and hybrid setup.
- A purpose-driven team focused on comfort, innovation, and sustainability.
- Transparent, fair freelance rates aligned with experience and project scope.
- Generous staff discount across the full Paire range.
To Apply
Please send your CV and a cover letter to
, outlining your experience with wireless bras and underwear. Be sure to include examples of relevant projects or brands you've worked with.
