Product Design - Tools

What the role actually is

Applied Intuition is hiring a product designer to work across tools and HMI for fleet, mission-control, and vehicle-management systems. The role is part of the design team but sits close to a strategically important new project.

The listing points toward a designer who can move between operational tooling and vehicle-adjacent interfaces. It is less about a single polished app and more about making the software layer around autonomous systems coherent enough for teams to use and ship quickly.

What you would work on

• Lead design for fleet management, mission-control systems, and vehicle-management software
• Shape OTA update flows and internal workbench tooling for vehicle operating systems
• Move between defense, commercial, and trucking use cases where the design problems overlap
• Collaborate with product managers and engineers to validate designs across tools and interfaces
• Ship product surfaces in fast release cycles with significant design ownership

What they are asking for

• Product, tools, or interaction design experience across enterprise, commercial, or consumer products
• Strong visual and interaction design skills
• Comfort taking ownership of ambiguous technical design problems
• Ability to work independently in a fast-moving environment
• Interest in real-time systems, defense, space, or robotics contexts

Why this one is worth a look

Tooling is where a lot of autonomy work either becomes usable or stays trapped inside expert teams. This role is interesting because it sits on the operating layer: fleets, updates, mission control, and the workbench software that lets machines move from demo to deployment.
