Staff Industrial Designer
Posted Updated
Description
- This is a great opportunity to bring deep industrial design craft to how Hims & Hers builds the physical products that carry our brand into people’s homes and daily routines. As a Staff Industrial Designer, you’ll bring expert-level craft across multiple design disciplines and help build the design systems and frameworks that scale across our projects
- You’ll be trusted with complex, ambiguous problems across multiple initiatives — anticipating design challenges before they surface and proposing scalable, innovative solutions. You’ll shape creative direction for major projects, making independent decisions that meaningfully affect team output and brand quality
- This is a defined-term contract engagement supporting our industrial design team’s active product roadmap. If you love solving hard, ambiguous design problems, partnering closely with cross-functional teams, and mentoring the designers around you, we’d love to talk
- This is a temporary position for 12 months
- Bring expert craft across disciplines
- Apply expert-level skill across multiple creative disciplines — sketching, CAD surfacing, CMF, and prototyping — to deliver work that holds up against a high craft bar
- Contribute to and help scale the design systems and frameworks that keep quality and consistency high as our project portfolio grows
- Use deep technical and conceptual expertise to drive innovation without sacrificing consistency across the products you touch
- Solve complex, ambiguous problems
- Resolve complex, ambiguous design problems across multiple initiatives, not just a single project
- Anticipate design challenges before they become blockers, and propose scalable, innovative solutions
- Bring a point of view to ambiguous briefs and translate them into concrete design principles, sketches, and prototypes
- Shape creative direction for major projects
- Own creative direction for major projects or programs within the portfolio, making independent decisions that meaningfully affect team output and brand quality
- Partner with engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing partners from concept through production handoff, balancing brand, manufacturability, and cost
- Track tolerances, material call-outs, and vendor capabilities so design intent survives the path to production
- Partner across teams & mentor peers
- Partner across design, engineering, and operations to drive creative cohesion on shared programs
- Lead discussions that clarify vision and priorities among cross-functional stakeholders
- Mentor peers and help elevate collaboration and craft standards across the design team
- Regulatory & compliance fluency
- Develop working knowledge of relevant health and consumer product compliance and safety requirements (e.g., biocompatibility, electrical safety, packaging and labeling), and build them into your design process early
- Translate compliance and human-factors requirements into design criteria you and your engineering/regulatory partners can work from
- Creative craft & prototyping
- Maintain hands-on fluency across sketching, 3D CAD (Rhino, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360), rendering (KeyShot or similar), and physical prototyping (3D printing, foam, soft-goods mockups)
- Bring working fluency across materials and manufacturing processes — injection molding, overmolding, extrusion, sheet metal, soft goods — enough to make informed trade-offs with vendors and engineers
Benefits

- Spending accounts: Options for additional HSA and FSA plans to help toward healthcare costs
- Working knowledge of manufacturing processes (injection molding, overmolding, extrusion, sheet metal, soft goods) and DFM principles
- Demonstrated ability to resolve complex, ambiguous design problems across more than one initiative at a time
- Experience partnering directly with engineering and operations teams to take products from concept to production
- Demonstrated ability to mentor peers and elevate collaboration standards, even without formal management responsibility
- Comfort working independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous, remote environment as a contractor embedded with a small design team, including periodic travel as needed
- Experience contributing to design systems, CMF standards, or frameworks that scale across multiple projects
- Deep fluency in industrial design tools: sketching, 3D CAD (Rhino/SolidWorks/Fusion 360), rendering (KeyShot), and hands-on prototyping
- A portfolio demonstrating expert craft across multiple creative disciplines, from concept sketches to shipped, manufactured products. (Please include a link to your portfolio with your application.)
- 8+ years in industrial design, with meaningful experience designing physical consumer or health/medical hardware that has shipped at scale
- If you’re excited about this role, we encourage you to apply—even if you’re not sure if your background or experience is a perfect match
