Empowering surgeons with autonomous precision. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We are looking for a creative UX Designer who thinks like an artist and is comfortable at the intersection of hardware and software. This is not a traditional product design role. You will design the experience through which surgeons control a surgical robot via an iPad, making complex real-time interactions feel intuitive, responsive, and human. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 3 to 4 years of experience in UX, interaction design, or a related creative field
- A strong portfolio that demonstrates thoughtful, high-craft work. This is the main thing we evaluate, more than years of experience
- Experience designing something genuinely impressive, ideally involving hardware-software interaction
- Real ability across both 2D and 3D design, including dynamic interfaces, animation, and how interactions feel to the user
- Experience conducting user research. You should have done user research before and know how to translate insights into design decisions
- Comfort working in a fast-paced, ambiguous startup environment with limited resources, where the scope evolves and you're expected to move fast with what you have
More about this role
Andromeda is building autonomous surgical robots designed to help surgeons perform procedures more safely, consistently, and efficiently. Our engineers and designers work across robotics, software, hardware, machine learning, and clinical operations to bring robotic systems from concept to real-world deployment. We are a small, highly collaborative team of 11 that values ownership, curiosity, craft, and the ability to move quickly from idea to execution.

Think of it like designing a game where every interaction has real consequences. If the surgeon pushes on tissue, the interface needs to respond visually, the way a game gives you feedback when you hit something. That level of craft and psychological thinking about interaction is what we are looking for.
As the first and only designer on the team, you'll be hands-on with everything from...
