• Iterate on designs based on feedback from clients, designers, and production managers.
Collaboration:
• Collaborate closely with master jewelers, casters, and stone setters to solve technical challenges.
• Liaise with the marketing and sales teams to present photorealistic renderings for client presentations and marketing materials.
