Lagavi is a design-led tableware platform working across various materials with a primary focus on ceramics. We collaborate with manufacturers, studio potters, and production setups to create and curate products for both HoReCa clients and retail.
Our focus is to bring together thoughtful design, material understanding, and contemporary dining culture.
We're looking for an Associate Product Designer to join our product team. You'll work alongside our senior designers, handling production-ready files, mockups, vendor coordination, and sampling follow-through, while progressively taking on independent design work across client custom projects, surface design, and in-house initiatives.

Supporting the senior design team:
- Prepare production-ready files for decal printing, laser engraving, and other surface applications
- Create product drawings, mockups, and 3D models from senior designers concepts
- Build moodboards and reference decks for client projects and in-house collections
- Coordinate with vendors on finishes, decal applications, and detailing
- Track product development and sample readiness — ensuring timely measurements, photoshoots, documentation, and updates
- Manage product cataloging and documentation, including specifications and dimensions, and coordinate with graphic and website teams to ensure accurate listings
Owning independently (with senior guidance, growing over time):
- Custom tableware design for HoReCa clients — moodboarding, curation, and product design

- Genuine interest in materials and making processes, ceramics, glass, wood, metal
