At Gather AI, we’re not just creating software; we’re pioneering a new era of warehouse intelligence. We’ve developed a groundbreaking, vision-powered platform that uses autonomous drones and existing equipment to capture real-time data, completely digitizing workflows that have historically been manual and error-prone. This means facilities operate smarter, safer, and more efficiently, ultimately redefining “on-time, in full” delivery. If you’re looking for an opportunity to contribute to truly transformative technology and make a significant impact in a vital industry, Gather AI is the place for you. We’re leading the charge in the rapidly evolving robotics industry, and we invite you to join us in reshaping the global supply chain, one intelligent warehouse at a time. ## About the Team Product at Gather AI sits at an unusual intersection: we’re a software company whose users work on warehouse floors, not at desks. The people using our products are forklift operators checking inventory on a tablet, site managers reading AI-generated insights on a dashboard, and field technicians running drone workflows mid-shift. Design here isn’t about pixels. It’s about understanding how people work under pressure and making sure the software gets out of their way. ## About the Role Most UX roles ask you to improve something that already exists. This one asks you to define what good looks like for an entirely new category of product. As our UX Designer, you’ll design the software that warehouse associates interact with every day: operator apps for our drone and MHE Vision systems, tablet interfaces built for people who are on their feet and can’t afford confusion, and Sage, our emerging AI-powered inventory intelligence platform. You won’t design from assumptions. You’ll go to the warehouses in Houston, Dallas, and Pittsburgh, stand next to the people using our software, and let what you see drive what you build. This is Gather AI’s first dedicated UX hire. The person who takes this role owns the design vision for the entire product surface, and the path to Director of UX is already visible from day one. ## What You’ll Do - Own UX design for the MHEV operator app: ramp fast, ship a v2 concept by month 3, and take full design ownership of the product line from there - Design for real operational conditions: tablet interfaces used by warehouse associates mid-shift, in noisy environments and under time pressure, where clarity isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s the whole job - Travel to customer sites to observe how people actually use our products in the field, and bring that context back into every design decision you make - Take on the Sage dashboard, our AI-driven insights layer, as your second product surface, shaping a product that’s still early enough that your decisions will define its direction - Work directly in Figma with engineering and product, prototyping quickly and handing off designs that remove ambiguity rather than create it - Use Claude and other AI tools to move from concept to functioning prototype, not just static mockups, on a team that moves fast and expects its designers to as well ## What You’ll Need - A portfolio showing UX work for products with real users in real workflows, where we can see the thinking behind the screens, not just the screens - Comfort using Claude or other AI tools to produce functioning prototypes, not just static Figma designs - Figma fluency, or deep experience with a comparable collaborative design and prototyping tool - Experience designing through user research: you’ve talked to users, watched them work, and let that change what you built - The ability to work without a lot of structure: identify what needs designing before you’re asked, move fast, and ask good questions when you’re stuck - Genuine willingness to travel roughly 20% of the time to customer warehouses and our Pittsburgh office, which is core to how the role works ## Nice to Have - Experience designing 0-to-1 at a startup, where you’ve made consequential decisions with incomplete information - Background working in warehouse, logistics, fulfillment, or any industrial environment - Experience with other generative UI design tools - 5 to 10 years of UX experience, though strong candidates with deep logistics or operations domain knowledge are encouraged to apply even if their UX tenure is shorter - Software development background ## About Gather AI ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Gather AI builds the Physical AI platform for logistics, using AI-powered vision on drones and material handling equipment to digitize warehouse operations in real time. - **Entity Type**: Private – Series B ($74M total funding) - **Headquarters**: Pittsburgh, United States - **Founded**: 2017 - **Founders**: Sankalp Arora (CEO), Geetesh Dubey (Chief Systems Officer), Daniel Maturana (Chief ML Scientist) ## Core Business - Primary industry: Logistics and warehouse management (Physical AI) - Target customers: B2B, enterprise-scale logistics, manufacturing, retail, aerospace, automotive, and government – customers include GEODIS, NFI Industries, Barrett Distribution Centers, Axon, and dnata - Mission: To give every facility in a network the same continuous picture of the floor, the intelligence to understand it, and the workflows to act on it – bringing the same intelligence to the physical world that exists in the digital one. ## Products & Services - **Gather AI Prana Platform**: An end-to-end Physical AI platform with three layers: - **SEE**: AI-powered vision on forklift-mounted cameras (for moving items) and drones (for static inventory) that captures ten-plus structured data points per frame, achieving 99.9%+ inventory accuracy. - **THINK**: AI reasoning that investigates root cause across inventory, labor, and fulfillment, surfacing ranked, reasoned priorities before each shift. - **ACT**: Workflows that route decisions to the right person or system with pre-drafted tasks, closing the loop from capture to action. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed (private company) - **Key Metric**: 2.5x year-over-year bookings growth (250% growth); total funding of $74M (including a $40M Series B raised in 2026); average time to ROI is 6 months. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by Tribeca Venture (noted on LinkedIn); deployed with GEODIS, NFI Industries, Barrett Distribution Centers, Axon, dnata, and the U.S. Department of Classified Antiquities. - **Growth Signals**: Doubled operational footprint in 2026; named to Fast Company’s World’s Most Innovative Companies list for 2026; employee headcount grew ~68% year over year to 80+ employees; expanded into government sector; active job postings increased 333% YoY. ## Competitive Advantages - **Closed-loop Physical AI**: Combines vision (SEE), reasoning (THINK), and action (ACT) in one platform – a unique integration that turns real-time visual data into prioritized tasks and automated workflows. - **Deep domain expertise**: Founded by Carnegie Mellon robotics PhDs; CTO Andrew Hoffman was a founding engineer at Kiva Systems (now Amazon Robotics); team has decades of warehouse automation experience. - **Network-wide consistency**: The platform enforces the same standard across every facility, enabling fixes from one building to become playbooks for the whole network. - **99.9%+ accuracy** down to the case level, maintained continuously, not just during audits. ## Strategic Focus - Scale platform across multi-facility enterprise networks and new verticals (government, aerospace, automotive). - Continue investing in AI/ML autonomy and computer vision to expand the “THINK” layer’s root-cause analysis and predictive capabilities. - Enhance network-wide outcomes by replicating operational playbooks across customer sites. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Radical transparency, candor, accountability, speed, and a people-first approach. Decisions are made openly; everyone has a voice in shaping the company’s future. - **Work model**: Fully remote or remote-flexible options available. - **Benefits**: Competitive salary and equity, comprehensive medical/dental/vision, 401K, unlimited PTO, monthly wellness benefit, continuing education/tuition support, voluntary life insurance. - **Engineering culture**: Opportunities to work on cutting-edge AI, ML, autonomy, computer vision, and robotics alongside former Amazon Robotics and CMU experts. Real customer impact at scale. ## Sources 1. [gather.ai](https://gather.ai) 2. [gather.ai/company](https://gather.ai/company) 3. [gather.ai/careers](https://gather.ai/careers) 4.
