About the role

Industrial Designer to shape TwentyFour Industries’ physical products, focusing on function, usability, manufacturability and a coherent product language across rugged, operator-facing hardware.

Responsibilities

  • Own industrial design across aircraft, ground-control equipment, accessories, transport, charging and operator-facing hardware.
  • Translate mission context, operator workflows, environmental constraints and technical architecture into physical product concepts.
  • Create sketches, CAD surfaces, mock-ups and functional prototypes to make design decisions early and tangible.
  • Work directly with mechanical, electronics, RF, thermal, production and systems engineers so design improves the architecture.
  • Develop a coherent design language across the portfolio, including form, material, colour, finish, labelling and physical interaction.
  • Design for field use: gloved handling, visibility, setup speed, maintainability, transport, cleaning, damage tolerance and low-light operation.
  • Support DFM/DFA, supplier discussions and the transition from prototypes to repeatable production.
  • Use user observation, testing and failure evidence to refine designs; join field tests and demonstrations regularly.
  • Balance speed, cost, ruggedness, signature, mass and manufacturability without losing product coherence.
  • Create design documentation and specifications that survive engineering change and production scale-up.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years in industrial design for technical, rugged, mobility, robotics, aerospace, defence or professional hardware products.
  • Excellent portfolio showing concept development through production, including constraints, trade-offs and physical prototyping.
  • Strong CAD and visualization capability plus hands-on model-making and rapid-prototyping skills.
  • Understanding of materials and processes such as injection moulding, composites, machined parts, additive manufacturing and soft goods.
  • Ability to work at startup speed, accept incomplete inputs and iterate closely with engineering.
  • Low ego, strong judgement and willingness to test designs outside the studio.

Benefits

  • Portfolio-level influence: Define the physical product language across aircraft and their wider operating ecosystem.
  • Design with engineering: Shape architecture, usability and manufacturability from the earliest concepts.
  • Real field feedback: See products used, test assumptions and improve designs from operational evidence.
  • Visible impact: Build products whose usability and physical coherence directly affect mission performance and trust.
