Product Designer

Intrinsic is Alphabet’s bet aiming to reimagine the potential of industrial robotics. Our team believes that advances in AI, perception and simulation will redefine what’s possible for industrial robotics in the near future – with software and data at the core. 

Our mission is to make industrial robotics intelligent, accessible, and usable for millions more businesses, entrepreneurs, and developers. We are a dynamic team of engineers, roboticists, designers, and technologists who are passionate about unlocking the creative and economic potential of industrial robotics.

As a product designer, you will help push innovation and excellence across our products at Intrinsic, bringing both a love of design and process along with a keen eye for detail and craft to everything you touch. As a start up the ability to innovate in ambiguous design contexts is a key strength.

This may include artifacts such as presentation diagrams, data visualizations, ux concept sketches, pixel perfect mockups, and animated prototypes. You will also assist in maintaining and building upon a design system for consistency, delight, and efficiency across team projects and visuals.

Last but not least, as a mission first company, democratizing robots for all will be at the forefront of your daily work. Working with user researchers, business partners and product managers will be important for the kind of impact we want to have on our customers and products.
