About Senti:
Senti is Travelxp's bet that India can design world-class hardware, not just use it. We're building a connected ecosystem — wearables for people and pets, ambient sensors for spaces, and smart tags for things — all designed in India, made in India, and built to disappear into everyday life rather than shouting for attention.
The Role:
We're looking for an Industrial Designer who can take a product from a rough idea to a form that feels inevitable — something people want to hold, wear, and live with. You'll own the physical language of Senti products: form, material, finish, and the thousand small decisions that make hardware feel premium instead of plastic.
What You'll Do:
· Design the form, materials, and finishes for wearables, sensors, and connected objects — from sketch to CMF-ready surface models
· Build and iterate 3D models (Rhino / Fusion 360) with manufacturability in mind, not just aesthetics
· Work shoulder-to-shoulder with mechanical and electrical engineers so your design survives contact with a real PCB
· Produce renders, mock-ups, and physical prototypes to pressure-test ideas before tooling
· Push back on engineering when a shortcut compromises the product — and know when to compromise yourself
What You Bring — Non-Negotiables:
· 5+ years designing physical consumer products (real objects, not just UI/UX), including at least one product you shipped end-to-end
· Strong hand sketching + 3D modelling (Rhino, Alias, Fusion 360, or SolidWorks surfacing)
· Working knowledge of materials & finishes — plastics, metals, elastomers, coatings — and what each costs to produce
· A portfolio of shipped or near-shipped hardware, not just concept renders
· Can own a design end-to-end with zero hand-holding — briefs, not blueprints
Nice to Have:
· Experience designing wearables or small connected devices
· Exposure to injection moulding / sheet metal manufacturing
· Rendering skills in KeyShot or similar The Fit Filter:
· You’ll love this if you want to build something that ends up on a billion wrists, not a slide deck
· You can take a one-line brief and run with it
· You get energised by tight timelines and early-stage chaos
· This isn't for you if you need a fully scoped brief before you can start
· This isn't for you if you think "good enough" ships
· This isn't for you if you want a big team to lean on — right now, it's lean and rapid
