At Walden Robotics, we envision a world where general-purpose robots dramatically improve the quality of life for all people—supporting us at home, at work, in factories, on farms, and beyond. Backed by E14 Fund.
About the role
In this role you will work closely with users to understand their needs, and you will design interfaces that make complex, real-time work feel intuitive. You will own the design from foundational research to prototyping to validation. The surfaces range from immersive spatial interfaces to fleet management applications and internal operational tooling. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Deep interaction and visual craft, with a portfolio showing clarity and usability in complex, data-rich, or real-time experiences
- Strong systems and service thinking, with an ability to design a coherent journey across multiple touchpoints and handoffs
- Comfort running your own discovery and usability testing, and turning findings into design decisions
- A track record of thriving in ambiguity, wearing multiple hats, and moving from vague problem to shipped solution with a high level of autonomy
- A bias toward prototyping (in Figma, low-fi mockups, code, etc.) to learn and iterate quickly
- Expertise or interest in human factors and human-robot interaction (HRI): latency, presence, situational awareness, and operator trust and fatigue
More about this role
Walden's general-purpose robots do useful work alongside people today, and they get better by practicing in the real world.

This is a scrappy, high-ownership role for someone who wants to wear multiple hats, set a high craft bar, and help shape our design culture as an early hire on a growing team. We're looking for a builder at heart: someone who is happiest making things, sweats the details, and who holds a high bar for quality.
- Design the immersive VR-based interface used to understand what a robot is doing and direct it with confidence and comfort.
- Own end-to-end service design: map how work flows across people, robots, and tools, and design the connective tissue needed for a seamless experience.
- Collaborate with our engineering and ops teams to bring interfaces to life and deploy them with quality.
- Run discovery and...
