Role brief

What this role is asking for.

About the Team Our Robotics team is focused on unlocking general-purpose robotics and pushing towards AGI-level intelligence in dynamic, real-world settings. Working across the entire model stack, we integrate cutting-edge hardware and software to explore a broad range of robotic form factors. We strive to seamlessly blend high-level AI capabilities with the constraints of physical systems to improve peoplesโ€™ lives. About the Role We are seeking a Lead Product & Industrial Designer to help define the visual identity, form language, and physical expression of our robotic products. You will work closely with leadership, product, and engineering teams to shape how our systems look, feel, and communicate their capabilities through industrial design. This role spans concept development, industrial design, surface development, and product definition. You will help establish a cohesive design language across robotic platforms while balancing aesthetics, usability, manufacturability, and engineering constraints. Unlike traditional industrial design roles that focus primarily on concept generation and visualization, you will be expected to create production-intent digital assets and geometry that can be directly integrated into engineering workflows. You will play a central role in shaping the physical experience of future robotic systems and ensuring that design intent remains intact...
