Our Mission at Scythe

Humanity has lost touch with nature - we've traded dirt and trees for asphalt, and we rely on loud, polluting, gas-powered machines to care for our limited natural spaces.

Scythe is forging a new future by building intelligent, all-electric machines that unlock a new superpower : the ability to care for the outdoors pollution-free at enormous scale. From today's first steps in landscape maintenance to full-fledged re-terraforming in the future, Scythe is pioneering autonomous machinery that supports the ingenuity of humans, multiplying our power to nurture our planet.

At Scythe, you'll work with a team of world-class experts in everything from computer vision to mechanical engineering, pushing the limits of possibility and growing by overcoming hurdles along the way.

The world needs what we're building-come join us in making it a reality.

Senior UI / UX Designer

At Scythe, we are revolutionizing the lawn care industry with our electric robotic mowers. We're looking for a seasoned UI / UX designer who is passionate about creating exceptional digital experiences and thrives on solving complex design problems. As our first in-house designer, you will establish the foundation that will set Scythe apart in a category bound by traditional conventions. You will take ownership of the user experience across our digital products, with a primary focus on customer-facing interfaces (web, mobile, and robot). Additionally, you'll provide occasional support for graphic design, ensuring brand consistency across all customer touchpoints.

You'll collaborate with teammates from across the company to build a deep understanding of product needs and bring those ideas to life. We expect you to have broad experience and the ability to "see around corners." You'll thrive in a fast-paced, self-managed environment and be a collaborative, low-ego teammate who helps Scythe achieve its big mission.

What you'll do at Scythe

• Lead UX / UI Design for Digital Products : Drive the design of Scythe's customer-facing interfaces. You'll create intuitive, user-centered designs that enhance the functionality and usability of our products for landscape professionals.
• Create and Maintain a Design System : Extend the Scythe brand identity to all digital touch points by establishing a cohesive design system to enable scalability and efficiency in future design work.
• User Research & Prototyping : Conduct user research, design wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups to ensure our digital products meet user needs and are easy to navigate.
• Iterate Based on Feedback : Engage in iterative design processes, incorporating feedback from internal teams and customers to refine and improve the product experience.
• Advocate for User-Centered Design : Drive conversations that champion the needs of our users. Balance conflicting priorities and feedback, navigating discussions to align cross-functional teams around a shared vision of user experience excellence.
• Adaptable Graphic Design Skills : While your primary focus is product design, you're comfortable jumping in to support graphic design tasks when needed, from marketing collateral to user instructions to print ads. You'll ensure that the Scythe brand identity is consistently applied across all mediums.
