• Partner with Product and Engineering to deliver intuitive, scalable digital experiences for designers and brands
• Oversee the development of cohesive design systems that span digital UI and physical form
• Guide the industrial design team to deliver high-impact, manufacturable products using our on-demand production methods

• Strong systems thinking—able to scale design systems across form and function
• Demonstrated ability to build, lead, and grow high-performing design teams
• Excellent cross-functional collaborator with product, engineering, and manufacturing
• Hands-on when needed, but strategic by default
• Passionate about empowering designers and elevating creativity
  
  
  

• Join a company reimagining manufacturing and empowering the next generation of designers and design brands
• Be part of a high-impact, design-driven organization creating a new industry
