What you'll do

Own the robot's industrial design — form, materials, surface treatment, and color — and shepherd your design intent through DFM, supplier reviews, and into production parts

Build Deft's brand from scratch — visual identity, design system, pitch decks, website, trade show presence, and demo videos

Design operator-facing UX for robot monitoring and control, optimized for noisy factory environments

Collaborate daily with engineers on mechanical, electrical, and software teams — you're a creative partner, not a downstream executor

Lay the design foundation — tools, workflows, and eventually a team — as Deft scales
