Principal UX Designer

What the role actually is

Amazon Robotics is hiring a principal UX designer for advanced industrial robotics systems. The work centers on control interfaces, monitoring dashboards, operational workflows, prototypes, and design systems for people working around automation at scale.

The listing is explicitly about bridging advanced robotics with human needs. That means the designer is working across software, physical context, safety, and the operational realities of manufacturing or fulfillment environments.

• Set the UX vision for first-to-market industrial robotics products
• Design control, monitoring, and operational interfaces for complex automation
• Create user flows and interaction patterns that make advanced systems easier to operate
• Partner with research, engineering, operations, and safety teams on prototypes and shipped workflows

• Principal-level UX or interaction design experience with complex systems
• Experience prototyping in Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, or similar tools
• Strong portfolio showing production design for technical or industrial environments
• Familiarity with human factors, ergonomics, safety-critical systems, data visualization, or manufacturing workflows

Amazon's robotics org has the scale to turn small design decisions into everyday work patterns for thousands of operators and technicians. The interesting part is not just making a dashboard cleaner; it is designing interfaces that can hold up when the robot, the facility, and the human process all change at once.
