POSM Designer

Job Summary

We are looking to hire a POSM Designer who genuinely enjoys designing, takes ownership of assignments, and thrives under pressure rather than avoiding challenging tasks.

Job Duties

• Creative Design & Concept Development

• Develop creative, professional, and visually compelling concepts for POSM displays, exhibition booths, customized plaques, awards, signage, retail displays, promotional stands, and other branding or fabrication-related products.

• Independently translate basic instructions, reference images, sketches, or written specifications into complete design concepts.

• Demonstrate creativity, initiative, and enthusiasm for developing innovative concepts and solving design challenges.

• Suggest practical design alternatives and improvements while maintaining alignment with approved concepts and project requirements.
• 3D Visualization & Technical Design

• Develop realistic, high-quality 3D models and photorealistic renderings using professional 3D design software.

• Demonstrate excellent proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and at least one professional 3D design and rendering software.

• Accurately represent real-world dimensions, proportions, scale, material thicknesses, textures, finishes, and colors in all designs.

• Translate approximate size instructions such as A4, A3, slightly larger than A4, or specified display dimensions into accurate and realistic 3D models.

• Ensure all designs are technically practical, structurally feasible, and suitable for manufacturing, fabrication, installation, or assembly.
• Material Knowledge & Manufacturing Feasibility

• Demonstrate a strong understanding of commonly used materials, including MDF, melamine, acrylic, stainless steel, aluminum, PVC, foam board, and other sheet-based or fabrication materials.

• Understand standard material thicknesses, fabrication limitations, and how different materials can be layered, combined, or assembled to achieve the required dimensions and overall depth.

• Accurately calculate and represent combined material thicknesses. For example, two 18 mm melamine sheets combined together result in a total thickness of 36 mm, excluding additional layers or finishing materials.

• Understand the difference between material thickness, overall product depth, structural components, and decorative layers.

• Maintain realistic material representation in 3D renderings, ensuring that specified thicknesses and construction methods are accurately reflected.

• Avoid exaggerated dimensions, unrealistic structures, or visually attractive concepts that cannot be practically manufactured.

• Maintain access to a measuring tape or meter scale for physical reference and dimension verification whenever required.
• Design Accuracy & Quality Assurance

• Produce accurate, error-free designs with exceptional attention to detail.

• Carefully verify dimensions, proportions, material specifications, thicknesses, alignment, spacing, and written design instructions before submission.

• Ensure consistency across design concepts, revisions, and final approved versions.

• Strictly follow approved concepts, specifications, materials, dimensions, and project guidelines.

• Review designs thoroughly before submission to minimize errors, rework, and unnecessary production delays.
• Design Revisions & Project Coordination

• Incorporate internal feedback, client comments, and additional design instructions professionally and efficiently.

• Carefully review written feedback and ensure all requested modifications are accurately implemented.

• Develop alternative concepts, design options, or variations when required.

• Manage multiple design assignments, revisions, and changing requirements simultaneously.

• Submit completed designs, updated renderings, and revisions within agreed timelines.

• Maintain organized design files, project assets, and relevant documentation.

Requirements

• Proven experience in POSM design, 3D product visualization, exhibition design, retail displays, or a related field.

• Excellent proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and working knowledge of at least one professional 3D design and rendering software.

• Strong understanding of real-world dimensions, proportions, material thicknesses, scale, and manufacturing feasibility.

• Practical knowledge of materials such as acrylic, MDF, melamine, stainless steel, wood, aluminum, and other fabrication materials.

• Understanding of fabrication and manufacturing techniques, including CNC routing, laser cutting, UV printing, engraving, material layering, and product assembly.

• Ability to independently develop creative concepts and realistic, manufacturable 3D designs from basic instructions or reference images.

• Strong attention to detail, ensuring accurate dimensions, proportions, material specifications, and design instructions.

• Ability to produce high-quality, realistic 3D renderings and presentation-ready visualizations.

• Comfortable managing multiple assignments, tight deadlines, design revisions, and changing project requirements.

• Strong ownership, accountability, problem-solving skills, and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.

• Professional attitude toward constructive feedback, revisions, and collaboration.

• Willingness to provide occasional support for genuinely urgent projects outside regular working hours, with reasonable coordination.

Preferred Experience

Experience in the following areas will be highly preferred

• 3D product visualization and photorealistic rendering.

• Customized corporate awards, trophies, plaques, and recognition products.

• Exhibition booths, promotional displays, POSM, retail displays, and signage design.

• Acrylic, stainless steel, wood, MDF, melamine, and other fabrication materials.

• Practical manufacturing methods, including CNC routing, laser cutting, UV printing, engraving, and product assembly.

• Developing attractive designs that are realistically manufacturable rather than purely conceptual.
