Pattern Maker (maternity cover)

About Us

Most fashion brands don’t produce their own garments. We’re proud to be part of the limited few that do.

Founded in Copenhagen in 2014, Son of a Tailor is one of the most pioneering menswear brands in operation today. With over one million products sold, we’ve redefined everyday essentials through custom-fit precision and a transformative made-to-order production model.

2025 is a pivotal year for us as we evolve from a tech-driven brand into a tastemaker in menswear. As we continue to scale, we’re looking for a Pattern Maker to join our team. We’ve built a unique and streamlined pattern-making process that allows us to generate patterns automatically and in real-time. Your role will be to support and refine this process—ensuring efficiency, accuracy, and continuous improvement.
