Contract Product Designer (desktop apps)

Lucky Robots is building the game engine for robotics. Our software generates massive amounts of training data for robot AI using large-scale simulation. Think game engine + robotics + AI.

We are looking for a contract product designer to help design a dense, compact desktop application. This is not a marketing website, mobile app, or admin dashboard.

We are building something closer to:

-Cursor

-Blender

-Figma

-Visual Studio Code

-Unreal Engine

Think cursor meets blender. Ultra dense. Keyboard-first. Power-user software.

What you'll work on

Help designing a high-density desktop interface for robotics and simulation workflows.

Examples of areas:

• scene graph / hierarchy panels
• node-based editors
• simulation inspection tools
• robotics sensor debugging views
• timeline and playback controls
• job orchestration panels
• training data inspection tools
• high-density property panels

This is tooling for engineers, not consumer software.

Design Style

We care about:

• extremely information-dense
• minimal wasted space
• fast to navigate
• keyboard-first workflows
• many panels and inspectors
• modular UI systems

Think Blender level density, but clean and modern.

Ideal Background

We are specifically looking for designers who have worked on serious desktop software, for example:

• developer tools
• 3D tools
• game engines
• simulation software
• complex data tools
• design software

Bonus if you have worked on products like:

-Blender

-Figma

-Visual Studio Code

-Unreal Engine

-Unity

Contract Details

• contract / project-based
• remote
• flexible hours
• work directly with founders and engineers
• potential for longer-term collaboration if things go well

How to Apply

Send:

• portfolio
• examples of dense desktop applications you designed
• tools you admire and why
