About the Role
Brickeye is seeking a designer to shape experiences across both physical and digital realms, from job site devices to data-analyzing platforms. This role involves designing hardware enclosures that build trust and collaborating across disciplines in a complex environment.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end design process from discovery and wireframes to polished, production-ready UI
- Translate complex data and real-time alerts into intuitive, user-friendly experiences built for non-technical users in the field
- Collaborate closely with engineering across multiple disciplines to ship designs that are both beautiful and buildable
- Shape the industrial design of our hardware — enclosures, form factor, materials, and finish — so devices feel considered and durable, not just functional
- Bring an aesthetic point of view to physical products, balancing manufacturability, ruggedness for job-site conditions, and visual coherence with our software brand
- Partner with hardware engineering early in the process, not just at the polish stage, so design intent survives contact with real constraints (thermal, enclosure tolerances, placement limitations, cost)
- Leverage AI tools (Claude, Figma, Cursor) to move faster, prototype smarter, and continuously raise the bar on what's possible
- Build and maintain a cohesive design system that scales across our product suite
- Interview real users, synthesize feedback, and bring a strong point of view on what should be built next
Requirements
- 2+ years of product design experience
- Degree in Industrial Design, Product Design, Engineering in Industrial Design/Systems/Mechical, or related field — or equivalent experience
- A portfolio that demonstrates strong software design across web/mobile and industrial design
- An eye for aesthetics that extends beyond screens: you notice when a physical object feels cheap or ill designed, and you can articulate why
- Comfortable working directly with engineers; you understand technical constraints and use them as creative inputs, not blockers
- Hands-on – you enjoy crafting physical products using things like hand tools, power tools, 3D printers, CNC machines etc.
- Fluent with modern design tools (Figma, Claude Design, 3D CAD) and genuinely passionate about AI-assisted workflows
- The mindset of a startup designer: self-directed, resourceful, comfortable with ambiguity, and always learning
- Strong opinions, loosely held; you can defend your decisions and adapt when the feedback is right
- Industrial design or physical product design experience — we're looking for someone who can talk convincingly about form, materials, and manufacturability, not just software U
- Early Adopter: You actively use AI tools (such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and others) to unlock new possibilities beyond traditional methods. You are energized by how AI enhances what you can achieve.
- Productivity Multiplier: You view AI as an essential amplifier of innovation and team efficiency—not a substitute for critical thinking or strategic judgment.
