The rapid evolution of technology over the past year has led us to seek a Senior Industrial Designer who is equal parts designer and builder—someone who can move rapidly from concept to functional demos that validate new interaction loops. The person will design physical products as contextual nodes in a distributed system, personally prototyping both hardware and software to validate the critical flow: sensing → inference → feedback → user behavior change.

Architecting the AI Contextual Ecosystem: Translate our information architecture into physical form, distributing intelligence across multiple AI devices, wearable hardware, and peripheral nodes.

Iterative Design Prototyping: Lead the build process from initial "works-like" hacking to high-fidelity "Design Prototypes." These artifacts must accurately represent form factor constraints (design intents) to inform engineering and product decisions.

Sensor Architecture & "Shared Awareness": Define the ideal sensor payload to enable AI context perception, ensuring the placement is socially acceptable and functionally optimal. (A big Plus)

Physical AI Semantics: Develop a "physical language" (light, haptics, material form) that makes the AI’s intent legible to the user, ensuring the device feels like a partner rather than a tool.

Trade-Off Analysis: Use these high-fidelity prototypes to demonstrate the benefits and constraints of specific hardware choices to engineering and product teams.
