About the role

About the Role:

This is the founding product design role. You are pioneering how Generalist models are brought to the world. You will own the end to end user experience. Today users must interact with our robots, interact with our custom data collection hardware, interact with custom hardware appliances, and interact with our UI tools. You will own these and future interactions.

You’ll be responsible for:

Designing the end to end user experience of the Generalist platform

Implementing working prototypes of your designs with the latest AI tools

Directly interfacing with customers to understand needs and observe behaviors

Owning the information architecture of all of our user facing surfaces

Designing the UX for web UIs and ensuring adherence to our visual aesthetic

Designing the UX for various custom hardware components required to use the platform

Working directly with engineering to implement new experiences and refactor existing ones

You might thrive in this role if you:

Have extensive experience designing technically complex products zero to one

Have familiarity with frontier AI. Robotics or hardware experience is a plus but not required

Can rapidly bring your ideas to life with the latest AI models

Work extremely collaboratively with fast-moving engineering teams

Hold an exceptionally high craft bar and have extreme independent agency

Can be 5-days in-office in San Mateo or Boston

About Generalist

At Generalist, we are on a mission to make general-purpose robots a reality. We believe the industries and homes of the future will depend on humans and machines working together in new ways. Robots can help us build more and get more done.

We build embodied foundation models, starting with a focus on dexterity. This requires advancing the frontiers of data, models, and hardware, to enable robots to intelligently interact with the physical world.

The company embraces both large-scale AI and robotics as core to its DNA. Our team of researchers, roboticists, and company builders come from OpenAI, Boston Dynamics, Google DeepMind, and other frontier labs—with a track record of shipping AI breakthroughs. Before Generalist, we pioneered large embodied multimodal models and vision-language-action models (PaLM-E, RT-2, Gemini Robotics), launched and scaled ChatGPT and GPT-4 to hundreds of millions of users, engineered the foundations of autonomous driving, built next-generation robots (Atlas, Spot, Stretch) and pushed the limits of what they can do (from parkour to manipulation, and testing robustness).
