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 nearly everywhere. If you’ve visited Machu Picchu, Tokyo, or an REI store in the last 10 years, you’ve likely seen 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 explaining a product, running a sale, launching a nonprofit, sponsoring a film, or razzing the biggest company on Earth, we do it with honesty, warmth, and wit. Through our products and brand, we aim to create delight and leave this world better than 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 will buy our gear. Your mission? To ensure we have the right amount of stock at the right time—so our customers aren’t disappointed when their dream backpack is out of stock. You’ll collaborate with sales, marketing, product, and operations teams to keep everything running smoothly.

What you'll do:

  • Analyze sales data to forecast demand with high accuracy.
  • Coordinate with sales, marketing, and operations to balance inventory levels.
  • Identify and mitigate risks of stockouts or overstocking.
  • Analyze market trends and customer behaviors.
  • Work with finance and logistics teams to optimize supply chain operations.
  • Create forecasting models for new products.
  • Utilize software like Netsuite and Excel for data analysis and decision-making.
  • Report on forecast accuracy and inventory metrics.

Role requirements

  • Minimum 5 years of demand planning and forecasting experience, preferably in consumer goods, retail, or outdoor gear.
  • Strong analytical skills and proficiency with spreadsheets.
  • Experience with demand planning software such as Netsuite, Sage, or similar.
  • Ability to communicate complex data insights clearly.
  • Strong trend analysis skills and a drive to improve forecasting accuracy.
  • Passion for adventure, sustainability, and ethical business practices.
  • Located in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area; able to work in our Dogpatch office 2-3 days per week.

A day in the life:

  • Start your day checking Slack, email, and your to-do list. Enjoy breakfast if in the office.
  • Review sales performance and inventory levels from the previous day.
  • Update demand plans in NetSuite based on recent trends.
  • Collaborate with teams on upcoming promotions or product launches.
  • Coordinate with supply chain for stock availability and resolve issues.
  • Update dashboards with latest insights for team visibility.
  • Wrap up your day and enjoy personal time or team activities.

Salary Range

  • $110,000 - $160,000 USD
  • Compensation varies based on location, experience, and level.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

We believe a diverse team fosters innovation. We celebrate different perspectives and backgrounds, and are committed to equality and inclusivity. We encourage candidates who resonate with our values to apply, even if they don’t meet every requirement.

Review Peak Design’s EEO and anti-discrimination policies on our website and relevant California resources.
