About Fuego:

Fuego is redefining dance footwear — creating sneakers built for dance, performance, and everyday life. Designed to move seamlessly from the studio to the street, our products fuse innovation, comfort, and style. Based in Miami, we’re a fast-growing global brand passionate about creativity, community, and motion.

About the Role:

We’re looking for a creative, detail-driven Footwear Designer to shape the next generation of Fuego sneakers. In this role, you’ll bring bold ideas to life — from sketch to production — designing shoes that inspire movement and self-expression.

You’ll collaborate closely with our product development, marketing, and athlete teams to merge innovative aesthetics with performance functionality. This is a unique opportunity to make a visible impact on a fast-growing brand at the intersection of dance, fashion, and lifestyle.

What You’ll Do:

  • Design innovative performance and lifestyle sneakers aligned with Fuego’s brand identity.
  • Develop design concepts, sketches, renderings, and detailed tech packs for new styles and updates.
  • Collaborate with product development to select materials, colors, and components that enhance comfort, durability, and performance.
  • Review samples, evaluate fit and function, and provide clear design feedback to factories.
  • Partner with marketing and athlete communities to incorporate creative and functional feedback.
  • Research trends in dance, fashion, and materials to guide seasonal direction and innovation.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 4+ years of footwear design experience within performance, lifestyle, or fashion sneakers.
  • Strong portfolio showcasing creative design and technical execution.
  • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and 3D design tools (Rhino, CLO, or similar).
  • Solid understanding of materials, pattern making, lasts, and manufacturing processes.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills with cross-functional teams and overseas factories.
  • Passion for dance, fashion, and the intersection of design and performance.

Why Fuego:

  • Play a defining role in shaping the future of Fuego’s product line.
  • Collaborate with a creative, cross-functional team that celebrates innovation and motion.
  • Competitive compensation package with growth opportunities.
  • Join a brand built on creativity, community, and movement.
