Product Design Intern

• Bangalore & Remote 3 months Paid + performance bonus

About the role:

Were designing a home robot that quietly does the boring stuff: mops the floor, moves chairs and tables, climbs stairs, and helps keep the house sane.

Your job: help us imagine how this robot looks and moves through a real home its body, its personality, and its motion style together with the founding team.

If you obsess over silhouettes, love characters like Baymax / WALL-E / Apollo, and dream in 3D this might be your thing.

What youll work on (in collab with us):

Youll collaborate closely with the founders to:

• Explore friendly, non-threatening forms for a home robot:
• A body that moves on the floor
• Two arms that feel useful but not scary
• A presence that feels safe around kids and families
• Imagine how it moves :
• Walking/rolling, climbing stairs, mopping as it moves
• Moving around chairs, tables and tight spaces in a real apartment
• Create concept explorations :
• Silhouettes, quick sketches, character explorations, variations
• Build 3D blockouts / models of the most promising concepts:
• Rough internal volume for electronics, battery, mopping system and joints
• Design simple motion / interaction sequences :
• How it enters a room, looks around, adjusts furniture slightly, and cleans

Youll get feedback, constraints and support from the founding team on robotics, scale, and realism as you go.

By the end of the internship, we want a clear design direction for our first robot: look, proportions, movement language and a 3D base that can later evolve into a 3D-printable shell.
