Responsibilities
Design how humans interact with robots. You’ll create the interfaces, gestures, and feedback loops that define the future relationship between people and machines — from mobile robots on the floor to analytics dashboards in the cloud
Shape the core product language. From early conceptual sketches to high-fidelity interfaces, you’ll define the design system and interaction principles that scale across Conduit’s ecosystem — from fleet control to mission planning to AI-assisted insights
Design workflows that feel inevitable. You’ll translate complex industrial processes into intuitive, visual logic — building interfaces that make data, devices, and automation feel human and alive
Prototype relentlessly. You’ll bring ideas to life through motion, mockups, and working prototypes that validate and inspire
Lead with insight. You’ll partner closely with our forward-deployed engineers and customers on factory floors, gathering insights directly from the people who run automation every day
Bridge design and engineering. You’ll collaborate with software and robotics engineers to ship elegant, performant designs — fluent enough in HTML, CSS, TypeScript, and component systems to make the possible real
