Job Title: Product Development Denim
Department: Research & Development / Product Innovation
Reports To: Head R&D
Job Purpose:
To conceptualize, develop, and commercialize new denim fabrics and finishes aligned with market
trends, brand needs, and sustainability goals — ensuring quality, innovation, and cost-effectiveness
throughout the product lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities:
1. New Product Innovation
• Develop new denim fabric concepts — blends, weaves, finishes, and washes — based on
seasonal trends, buyer requirements, or internal R&D strategy.
• Experiment with fiber blends (cotton, lyocell, modal, hemp, recycled fibers, etc.) to create
sustainable and performance-driven denim.
• Collaborate with spinning, dyeing, weaving, and finishing teams to conduct development
trials and bulk scale-ups.
2. Trend & Market Research
• Analyze global denim trends, color forecasts, and wash developments from key markets (EU,
US, Japan, etc.).
• Study competitor products and benchmark fabric performance, handle, and aesthetic.
• Attend trade fairs, exhibitions, and buyer meets to identify innovation opportunities.
3. Technical Development
• Design denim constructions (warp/weft counts, yarn types, weave structures like twill,
broken twill, dobby, etc.).
• Select appropriate indigo/Sulphur dye recipes and finishing techniques to achieve target
shades, cast, and hand feel.
• Ensure all new developments meet performance standards — shrinkage, skew, tensile
strength, tear strength, etc.
4. Sampling & Buyer Coordination
• Work closely with design and marketing teams to prepare concept swatches and
presentation samples.
• Coordinate with buyers/brands during product presentations, sample submissions, and
approvals.
• Incorporate buyer feedback and finalize production-ready versions.
5. Sustainability & Innovation
• Lead projects on eco-friendly denim — low-water dyeing, ozone, laser, and enzyme-based
finishing.
• Evaluate and implement new technologies like foam dyeing, e-flow finishing, or bio-based
indigo.
• Maintain compliance with sustainability certifications (GOTS, BCI, GRS, ZDHC, etc.).
6. Process Optimization
• Ensure smooth transition from lab development to bulk production with minimal variation.
• Collaborate with production teams to optimize parameters and reduce rework/waste.
7. Documentation & Reporting
• Maintain a development database with specifications, test results, and buyer feedback.
• Prepare monthly product innovation reports and trend presentations for management.
Qualifications & Experience:
• Education: B.Tech / M.Tech in Textile Technology, Textile Chemistry, or Fashion Technology.
• Experience:8-15 yrs
