From Reformation's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Being naked is the #1 most sustainable option. We're #2.

Climate Positive by 2025, Circular by 2030
, and pushing the whole industry forward along the way.
Our work has gotten love in Drapers and
Sourcing Journal
, and
TIME wrote about how great our CEO, Hali Borenstein, is. Basically, we're saving the Earth and looking damn good doing it.
, and we reach millions of people with campaigns like this, this and this.
None of this work is possible without the incredible people behind it. We're a mission-based company that invests in an inclusive culture, so we can innovate together and ensure everyone has the space to grow, thrive, and belong.
And starting right now, we want to do all that with you.
Onsite, 5 days - Vernon HQ
Quality Assurance Manager - Women’s Apparel
The Manager of Quality Assurance is responsible for driving product compliance and quality consistency across core QA processes — care label approvals, third-party inspection report review, fabric and garment testing, and high-return investigations for internationally produced product. This is a report-driven role: you are managing quality outcomes mainly through analysis and vendor communication, not physical warehouse inspection.
You are the key communication link between overseas vendors, third-party inspection partners, internal QC, and the Production, Tech Services, Fabric, and Merchandising teams.
4–6 years in Apparel Quality Control, QA, or Production. Experience must include managing offshore vendor quality through third-party inspection and testing programs. Candidates with warehouse or distribution QC backgrounds alone will not be considered.
Strong knowledge of garment construction, fabric behavior, and inspection standards (AQL, inline vs. final audits). Candidates must demonstrate both garment and fabric expertise — fabric performance knowledge (colorfastness, shrinkage, seam strength) is required, not a plus.
Ability to cross-reference complex data across BOMs, PIMs, Tech Packs, and lab reports.
Intermediate Excel proficiency (vlookups, pivot tables). Experience with NetSuite or PIM systems is a major plus.
Familiarity with fabric performance standards (colorfastness, shrinkage, seam strength) and lab testing methods.
Bachelor’s degree (Textiles, Apparel Manufacturing, or Supply Chain) or equivalent professional experience.
You notice the small discrepancies in a care label or a lab report that others might miss.
You can provide concise, actionable feedback to overseas vendors and internal cross-functional partners.
You use standards and evidence to decide when to approve a marginal improvement or reject a lot. You make sound judgment calls independently, balancing quality and timelines — and you own those decisions.
You thrive in fast-paced environments and can manage multiple deadlines and hundreds of reports without breaking a sweat.
You manage your workload proactively, anticipate what's coming, and act before things become problems.
