About the role

Company Overview

At Skild AI, we are building the world's first general purpose robotic intelligence that is robust and adapts to unseen scenarios without failing. We believe massive scale through data-driven machine learning is the key to unlocking these capabilities for the widespread deployment of robots within society. Our team consists of individuals with varying levels of experience and backgrounds, from new graduates to domain experts. Relevant industry experience is important, but ultimately less so than your demonstrated abilities and attitude. We are looking for passionate individuals who are eager to explore uncharted waters and contribute to our innovative projects.

Position Overview

We are seeking a creative and technically skilled UI/UX Designer to join our robotics team in crafting intuitive interfaces for robot control applications and web platforms. This role combines traditional UI/UX design with 3D visualization and interaction design, requiring both artistic vision and technical implementation skills.

Responsibilities

Design and implement user interfaces for robot control applications using React Three Fiber
Create and optimize 3D models and meshes using Blender for various applications
Design intuitive dashboards and monitoring interfaces for robot management systems
Develop immersive VR experiences for robot interaction and control
Create responsive web designs for company platforms and products
Collaborate with development team to ensure proper implementation of designs
Conduct user research and usability testing to improve interface designs

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Design, Computer Science, or related field
Strong portfolio demonstrating UI/UX design skills
Proficiency with Figma or similar design tools
Basic understanding of web technologies and responsive design
Strong visual design skills and attention to detail

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with 3D modeling and Blender

Skild AI is building the world's first general-purpose robotic intelligence — an omnibodied AI brain that can be deployed into any hardware platform, from humanoid robots to warehouse automation systems to quadrupeds. Founded in 2022 and headquartered in San Mateo, California, Skild AI takes a fundamentally different approach to the robotics race: rather than building a single robot, they've created a platform-agnostic foundation model that makes any robot a dramatically better version of itself.

The company operates at the intersection of massive-scale machine learning and physical robotics, believing that data-driven AI is the key to unlocking robust robotic intelligence that adapts to unseen scenarios without failing. Their customers include major technology companies like Amazon and NVIDIA, who integrate Skild's brain into their own hardware platforms.

With over $1.8 billion in funding from world-class investors including SoftBank, Sequoia Capital, NVIDIA, Bezos Expeditions, and Samsung, Skild AI has grown from a 12-person team to nearly 200 employees in under two years. The company also pursues strategic acquisitions — such as Fetch Robotics — to expand their hardware footprint and demonstrate the transformative power of their AI when deployed into existing platforms.

Skild AI fosters a fast-paced, high-ownership startup culture where team members work directly with founders and have outsized impact. The founding team emerged from CMU's robotics ecosystem, and the company values demonstrated ability and attitude over pedigree, welcoming individuals from new graduates to domain experts who are passionate about exploring uncharted territory in embodied AI.
