Senior Product Designer

FieldAI’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-only architectures, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and get better every time our robots run in the field.

We're looking for a Senior Product Designer to craft the design voice for our product by creating polished customer interactive experience for a new category of technology. You'll bring a strategic design thinking, strong visual identity and aesthetic sensibility to everything you touch — defining the look, feel, and design language that makes our platform unmistakably FieldAI. Beyond the visual, you'll shape how customers operate their robots and unlock the insights and value that matter to their business. This isn't about a single screen or feature — it's about building a cohesive, intuitive experience for how humans work with autonomous robots at scale.

Define and own the visual identity and design language across our customer interactive experience — establishing the aesthetic standard that makes every surface of the product feel premium, intentional, and cohesive

Create and maintain a comprehensive design system, including design policies and primitives, visual style guide, design tokens, and documented interaction patterns that scale across the platform.

Bring an intuitive sense to how users work with robots across a variety of sites, environments, and use cases — translating complex robotic operations into clear, elegant industrial workflows

Design data products that communicate value — helping users not just see the rich data our systems generate, but understand what it means and act on it with confidence

Own design ops end-to-end: establish governance, versioning, and contribution processes for the design system to ensure consistency as the product and team grow

Collaborate closely with product, marketing, and engineering, teams to bring designs from concept to production — ensuring what ships matches the vision

Champion the user through research, feedback, and advocacy — whether they're field operators, site managers, or enterprise decision-makers

5+ years of experience in systems design with a strong portfolio demonstrating visual craft and shipped digital products (complex platforms, interactive tools, or multi-layered applications preferred)

Proven experience building and maintaining design systems from the ground up — including component libraries, style guides, design tokens, and usage documentation

An understanding of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) — whether through academic study, professional experience, or deep personal curiosity, you appreciate the unique challenges of designing for systems where humans and robots collaborate

Expertise in Figma as your primary design tool

Strong data visualization skills — the ability to make complex information clear, useful, and beautiful

Systems thinking — you can craft a single interaction and understand how it fits into a broader platform and design language

Excellent written and verbal communication skills — you can articulate design decisions, give and receive feedback gracefully, and collaborate across disciplines

Experience designing for robotics, autonomous systems, IoT, or other hardware-software products

Background in platform-level UX where information architecture, navigation patterns, and scalability are as important as any individual screen

Familiarity with real-time data interfaces, mapping, or geospatial UX

Experience designing for multi-site or multi-environment use cases

Comfort with prototyping interactions and micro-animations

Track record of establishing design culture and evangelizing design system adoption across engineering teams
