WHAT WE DO Gecko Robotics is helping the world’s most important organizations ensure the availability, reliability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Gecko's complete and connected solutions combine wall-climbing robots, industry-leading sensors, and an AI-powered data platform to provide customers with a unique window into the current and future health of their physical assets. This enables real-time decision making to increase the efficiency and safety of operations, promote mission readiness, and protect the environment and civilization from the effects of infrastructure failure. Role at a Glance We are seeking a Senior Product Designer to join our Manufacturing team and design at the unique intersection of physical factory floors, hardware constraints, and cutting-edge physical AI. This is a high-impact, non-traditional role where you will translate firsthand customer insights into strategic product direction, building systems that directly strengthen America’s industrial base. Your work will span human-operated and autonomous robotic Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) data collection systems, alongside the collaborative platforms where customers, suppliers, engineers, and analysts make mission-critical decisions. By bridging the gap between complex material health data and intuitive workflows, you will create tools that improve process, increase throughput, and ensure the quality of safety-critical, high-value components. As a key member of the Manufacturing team, you will work day-to-day with strategists, engineers, field operators, and customers to define not just how a feature looks, but what is worth building and why it matters. You will frequently travel to customer sites, anchoring your designs in the real-world environment of the factory floor and collaborating directly with users who may be adopting this category of technology for the very first time. This role requires a highly autonomous, curious, and user-centered designer who thrives in ambiguous environments and takes proactive ownership of a project.   What you will do - Work directly with users in customer organizations, often at their plant, forge, or shop. - Collaborate with robotics teams, product strategists, and engineers to understand workflows, constraints, failure modes, and opportunities. - Build mental models of manufacturing workflows, NDT data, robotics workflows, and customer decision loops, then communicate them clearly. - Use sketches, prototypes, diagrams, research, product narratives, AI-assisted code, or whatever artifact aligns the team and drives decisions. - Shape how design works inside Gecko: independent, collaborative, customer-grounded, technically fluent, and oriented toward progress. - Develop firsthand understanding of customer domains, mental models, workflows, and operational realities. - Turn field learning and customer feedback into product concepts that scale beyond a single user or customer. - Ship improvements to real users and iterate based on what happens in the field. - Raise the bar for product clarity, user empathy, and execution quality. About You - Experience owning complex, end-to-end product spaces. - Deeply curious about users, technology, systems, and how work happens outside the software. - Independent enough to push your own work forward and collaborative enough to push the team's work forward. - Ability to translate direct customer conversations into scalable product thinking. - Understands complex technologies and can articulate credible product solutions. - Energized by the blurring lines between design, product strategy, engineering, and customer discovery. - Comfortable working within technical environments, with the ability to prototype or contribute directly to code when it is the fastest path to product clarity. - Experience in design for industrial, robotics, data-heavy, enterprise, or other complex technical domains.   WHO WE ARE At Gecko,
