What You'll Do
Shape the physical design of consumer hardware products, with a primary focus on a smart ring. Develop detailed forms and features that align with both user experience and technical constraints. Collaborate closely with engineering teams to ensure designs balance visual appeal, structural integrity, and ease of manufacturing.
Produce finalized design assets including detailed CAD models, high-quality renders, and CMF (color, material, finish) specifications. Iterate rapidly based on feedback and technical input, ensuring deliverables are ready for production. Provide support during factory discussions as needed to maintain design fidelity during manufacturing.
Requirements
- Formal background in industrial design or a related discipline
- Proven experience designing consumer electronics or compact hardware devices
- Familiarity with materials commonly used in small-scale hardware and core manufacturing methods
- Ability to work autonomously and maintain momentum in a fast-paced environment
