Senior Product Designer
FieldAI, Irvine, CA, United States
Overview
FieldAI’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in 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. We ship work, test on hardware, and improve through real deployments, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and improve each time our robots run in the field.
We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to craft the design voice for our product by creating polished customer interactive experiences for a new category of technology. You’ll bring strategic design thinking, strong visual identity, and aesthetic sensibility to define the look, feel, and design language that makes our platform unmistakably FieldAI. Beyond visuals, you’ll shape how customers operate their robots and unlock insights and value that matter to their business. This role is about building a cohesive, intuitive experience for how humans work with autonomous robots at scale.
What You’ll Get To Do
Define and own the visual identity and design language across the customer interactive experience—establish 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 various 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 data our systems generate, but understand its meaning 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
What You Bring
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)—appreciating 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
What Will Set You Apart
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
Our salary range is generous and we consider each individual’s background and experience when determining final compensation. Base pay may vary based on role scope, job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and the Irvine, California market.
Why Join FieldAI in Irvine?
In Irvine, you will work where the robots are. Our local team builds and tests systems on real hardware with real sensors, then ships them to operate in unstructured, previously unknown environments around the world. We are solving one of robotics’ hardest challenges: reliable deployment outside the lab. Our Field Foundational Models™ raise the bar for perception, planning, localization, and manipulation, with an emphasis on explainability and safety for real-world use.
You will collaborate with a world-class team that thrives on creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. We bring deep experience from organizations such as DeepMind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and SpaceX, along with a track record of field deployments and strong performance in DARPA challenge segments.
Be Part of the Next Robotics Revolution
We are looking for builders who want their work to leave the whiteboard and show up on robots. If you enjoy tackling tough, uncharted questions and working across disciplines, you will find your people here. Our teams span AI, software, robotics engineering, product, field deployment, and technical communication, all focused on shipping systems that perform in the real world.
Our headquarters is in Irvine, and we partner closely with teams there as well as colleagues across the US and around the world. Join us in Southern California and help define what dependable, field-ready autonomy looks like.
We value diverse perspectives and are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace. We evaluate candidates and employees based on merit, qualifications, and performance, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, national origin, ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, or any other legally protected status.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
