We are hiring an Industrial Designer with strong fundamentals, an eye for detail, and real curiosity about machines that move, sense, and make decisions on their own.
We're a strategy, industrial design, digital design, and product development consulting firm based in San Francisco. For over 25 years we've created successful products and immersive experiences across consumer electronics, housewares, computing, robotics, medical, scientific, and commercial products, for clients including Google, Meta, Uber, Johnson & Johnson, and Tonal.
Robotics and autonomous systems now sit at the center of a growing share of our Physical work. Designing a robot isn't the same problem as designing a device. The form has to make room for actuators, sensors, cabling, and heat. It has to survive contact with the real world. And it has to read as approachable to the person standing next to it, because a machine that looks unpredictable makes people back away from it. We're looking for a designer who finds that constraint stack exciting rather than annoying.
This is a mid-level role for someone with roughly three to six years of professional experience. You'll drive concepts from sketch through refined CAD, work shoulder to shoulder with engineers, and help set the visual language for products nobody has designed before.
Nice to have
If your portfolio doesn't include robots yet but you've designed hard, dense, engineering-driven products, we want to see it.
