About Peak Design

The purpose of Peak Design is to create happy, meaningful lives for the people that work here. We believe this purpose can only be achieved when self-actualizing, highly stoked people enthusiastically step into (or log onto) the Peak Design office every day. Our purpose and our mission go hand-in-hand and we encourage and celebrate authenticity and the unique perspective each of our employees brings. We’re a close-knit team that thrives on mutual respect and the belief that every voice matters—especially when it’s got something interesting to say.
 
We make radical, meticulously-engineered gear for detail-obsessed people. Our backpacks, travel bags, camera gear, and phone accessories are used dang-near everywhere. If you’ve visited Machu Picchu, Tokyo, or an REI store in the last 10 years, you’ve been within ogling distance of a Peak Design product.
 
Alongside our award-winning gear is a brand that truly reflects who we are as people—passionate about design, deeply caring about our environmental and social impact, unafraid to speak up, radically transparent, and generally down to clown. Whether we’re explaining a productrunning a salelaunching a nonprofitsponsoring a film, or razzing the biggest company on Earth, we do it with our trademark honesty, warmth, and wit. Through our products and our brand, we aim to create delight, and leave this world better than how we found it.

About the job

  • You’re here because you have an uncanny ability to predict the future. Not with a crystal ball, but with spreadsheets, sales data and an almost freakish intuition for knowing when people are gonna buy our gear. Your mission? To make sure we have just the right amount of stuff at just the right time—so our customers don’t rage-tweet us when their dream backpack is out of stock. You’ll work with various teams in sales, marketing, product and operations to keep things running smoother than a jazz saxophonist on a Friday night.

What you'll do:

  • Stare deeply into sales data and define the future of demand with eerie accuracy.
  • Play nice with the sales, marketing, and operations teams to make sure we have just enough (but not too much) of everything.
  • Identify risks to prevent catastrophic stockouts and overstock situations (because warehouses should store products, not regrets).
  • Analyze trends, market data, and customer behavior—basically, be a data wizard.
  • Work closely with the finance and operations team so our logistics game stays tight.
  • Develop forecasting models to support all the new products that we’re making.
  • Use fancy software like Netsuite and Excel magic to make data-driven decisions.
  • Report on key metrics like forecast accuracy and inventory turnover
  • Run the monthly Open-to-Buy (OTB) process for assigned product categories reconciling planned sales with inventory to determine smart, data-driven buy quantities.

About you:

Required Experience

  • Excellent (English) communication skills
  • At least 2 years of experience in demand planning and forecasting. Ideally, in consumer goods, retail, or outdoor gear.
  • Familiar with SQL, working with complex datasets.
  • Great analytical skills and a true appreciation for spreadsheets
  • Experience with demand planning or forecasting tools preferred; ERP experience (NetSuite a plus)
  • The ability to explain complex data insights to normal humans without making their eyes glaze over.
  • A keen eye for trends and an unrelenting drive to get better at predicting them.

A day in the life:

  • Available standard Pacific working hours
  • Review the previous day’s sales performance report. Does the data match your expectations? Are there any discrepancies? Check inventory levels at the warehouses: are stock levels as planned, or are there potential shortages or surpluses?
  • Engage with key stakeholders in sales, marketing, and product teams. Are there any upcoming promotions, product launches, or market shifts that could impact demand forecasts?
  • Meet with ops, sales, marketing and logistics teams to ensure stock availability. Are there any unexpected shipping delays, supplier issues, or warehouse capacity constraints that need immediate attention?
  • Update demand planning dashboards with the latest insights, ensuring all relevant teams have visibility into demand trends and potential risks.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
