About The Position

We’re looking for a UX/UI Designer to design thoughtful, high-quality digital experiences across a range of client engagements. This role is ideal for a curious, collaborative designer who enjoys solving real problems and bringing ideas to life — from early concepts through polished delivery. In this role, you will partner closely with client product teams and our internal team to turn complex ideas into clear, intuitive, and engaging experiences. You’ll be joining real, in-flight work where quality and delivery speed matter, collaborating with experienced designers and growing the instincts that come from shipping things that matter. At Robots & Pencils, we design AI systems for a human world. Our name says it all. Robots and pencils means engineering paired with creativity, because every agent we ship has to work for real people in real workflows. That balance is baked into how we operate. Every role here contributes directly to that mission. Here, you shape how AI systems integrate into enterprise operations, how teams move at real velocity, and how products create measurable impact for clients and the people they serve. We ship production-ready AI in 30 to 45 days. That pace demands people who take ownership, lead with craft, and care deeply about what they put their name on.
