Build the data infrastructure for robots operating in the real world.
Robotics is moving from research labs into production across factories, warehouses, vehicles, and field deployments. When robots fail, behave unexpectedly, or need to be improved, engineers rely on data to understand what actually happened.
At Foxglove, we build the observability, visualization, and data infrastructure that makes that possible. Our tools are used by robotics and autonomous systems teams to ingest, store, query, replay, and analyze massive volumes of multimodal sensor data from live systems and from production fleets.
We’re looking for a Product Designer to join the Foxglove design team. You’ll work closely with engineers, product managers, and other designers to improve and expand our web and desktop applications. Foxglove builds tools used by robotics engineers to develop and test autonomous systems. The interfaces we design support complex workflows, large-scale data, and highly interactive visualizations. In this role, you’ll help design features that make these systems easier to understand and work with.
You’ll contribute across the product design process, from early exploration and prototyping to polished UI and shipped features, while developing a deep understanding of our users: engineers building autonomous vehicles and robots.

What We Do
At Foxglove, we’re building powerful tools to accelerate robotics development. We believe that robotics will have a massive impact on our daily lives and the world economy over the coming decade, and that better quality software tooling will significantly accelerate this trend. Our team’s years of experience working in the robotics and self-driving industries means we are uniquely positioned to bring the advanced tools built in-house at larger companies to the increasing number of startups in this space, across a wide range of verticals.
Our first product, Foxglove Studio, is an open source visualization and diagnosis platform, specifically designed for working with robotics and sensor data. It allows you to easily inspect sensor inputs such as images, point clouds, and time series data, via a highly customizable 2D & 3D environment.
