Job Description:

The Staff/Sr.

Staff Product Designer role within Shield AI’s Hivemind organization is responsible for solving complex User

Experience: and Product Design problems associated with the end-to-end user experience of developing, deploying, testing and evaluating autonomy solutions.

The core products developed by the Hivemind organization target multiple user personae, ranging from the external end-user (the “Operator” of autonomous systems), to the Test engineer (who tests and evaluates autonomous systems in software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop and real-world flight test environments), to the AI engineer (who develops and tests autonomy architectures).

Significant portions of the product are are best described as developer facing software product (i.e. SDKs, CLIs) and require contribution from designers that have relevant experience.

Other portions of the product leverage web technologies and UIs to support configuration management, scenario design, mission planning, mission rehearsal, debrief, and test and evaluation process.

The supported workflows with these products range from the highly visual/experiential experience of the operator using a ground-control-station (GCS) client to mission plan and command-and-control, to autonomy engineers working within the Integrated Development Environment, to Test Engineers using the web portal and extensible CLI tool.

As such, Hivemind is a highly complex and technical product that enables complex workflows across multiple collaborating teams.
