Sample interview questions
Describe a physical product you took from an ambiguous initial brief through production.

I would explain how I converted unclear user, brand, and business needs into design principles, explored concepts through sketches and prototypes, aligned feasibility with engineering and vendors, and refined specifications through production handoff. I would include measurable outcomes such as launch timing, quality, cost, or user feedback.

How do you preserve design intent when working with manufacturing and supply-chain partners?

I establish critical design criteria early, including CMF specifications, tolerances, material call-outs, finish standards, and acceptable quality limits. I review DFM feedback collaboratively, use prototypes or golden samples to clarify intent, and document decisions so vendors and internal teams can make consistent trade-offs.

How would you approach a product that must satisfy both a high brand bar and health-product compliance requirements?

I would involve regulatory and engineering partners at the beginning, translate applicable safety, labeling, human-factors, and material requirements into design constraints, and incorporate them into concept evaluations. This approach avoids late-stage compromises while leaving room to develop a differentiated and coherent product experience.

What is your process for creating or scaling a design system for physical products?

I identify recurring product elements, user interactions, materials, visual cues, and manufacturing constraints, then convert them into reusable principles and specifications. I validate the system across active programs, document standards clearly, and evolve them through feedback from design, engineering, operations, and suppliers.

How do you mentor other designers without formal management authority?

I provide specific, actionable critique tied to user needs, craft quality, and production feasibility, while making space for the designer to own decisions. I also share process tools, facilitate design reviews, model productive cross-functional collaboration, and recognize strong work so the entire team raises its standards.

About the Role:

This is a great opportunity to bring deep industrial design craft to how Hims & Hers builds the physical products that carry our brand into people’s homes and daily routines. As a Staff Industrial Designer, you’ll bring expert-level craft across multiple design disciplines and help build the design systems and frameworks that scale across our projects.

You’ll be trusted with complex, ambiguous problems across multiple initiatives — anticipating design challenges before they surface and proposing scalable, innovative solutions. You’ll shape creative direction for major projects, making independent decisions that meaningfully affect team output and brand quality.

This is a defined-term contract engagement supporting our industrial design team’s active product roadmap. If you love solving hard, ambiguous design problems, partnering closely with cross-functional teams, and mentoring the designers around you, we’d love to talk.

This is a temporary position for 12 months.

You Will:

CRAFT EXPERTISE & DESIGN SYSTEMS

  • Bring expert craft across disciplines

    • Apply expert-level skill across multiple creative disciplines — sketching, CAD surfacing, CMF, and prototyping — to deliver work that holds up against a high craft bar.

    • Contribute to and help scale the design systems and frameworks that keep quality and consistency high as our project portfolio grows.

    • Use deep technical and conceptual expertise to drive innovation without sacrificing consistency across the products you touch.

  • Solve complex, ambiguous problems

    • Resolve complex, ambiguous design problems across multiple initiatives, not just a single project.

    • Anticipate design challenges before they become blockers, and propose scalable, innovative solutions.

    • Bring a point of view to ambiguous briefs and translate them into concrete design principles, sketches, and prototypes.

PROJECT OWNERSHIP & CROSS-FUNCTIONAL PARTNERSHIP

  • Shape creative direction for major projects

    • Own creative direction for major projects or programs within the portfolio, making independent decisions that meaningfully affect team output and brand quality.

    • Partner with engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing partners from concept through production handoff, balancing brand, manufacturability, and cost.

    • Track tolerances, material call-outs, and vendor capabilities so design intent survives the path to production.

  • Partner across teams & mentor peers

    • Partner across design, engineering, and operations to drive creative cohesion on shared programs.

    • Lead discussions that clarify vision and priorities among cross-functional stakeholders.

    • Mentor peers and help elevate collaboration and craft standards across the design team.

  • Regulatory & compliance fluency

    • Develop working knowledge of relevant health and consumer product compliance and safety requirements (e.g., biocompatibility, electrical safety, packaging and labeling), and build them into your design process early.

    • Translate compliance and human-factors requirements into design criteria you and your engineering/regulatory partners can work from.

  • Creative craft & prototyping

    • Maintain hands-on fluency across sketching, 3D CAD (Rhino, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360), rendering (KeyShot or similar), and physical prototyping (3D printing, foam, soft-goods mockups).

    • Bring working fluency across materials and manufacturing processes — injection molding, overmolding, extrusion, sheet metal, soft goods — enough to make informed trade-offs with vendors and engineers.

You Have:

  • 8+ years in industrial design, with meaningful experience designing physical consumer or health/medical hardware that has shipped at scale.

  • A portfolio demonstrating expert craft across multiple creative disciplines, from concept sketches to shipped, manufactured products. (Please include a link to your portfolio with your application.)

  • Experience contributing to design systems, CMF standards, or frameworks that scale across multiple projects.

  • Demonstrated ability to resolve complex, ambiguous design problems across more than one initiative at a time.

  • Deep fluency in industrial design tools: sketching, 3D CAD (Rhino/SolidWorks/Fusion 360), rendering (KeyShot), and hands-on prototyping.

  • Working knowledge of manufacturing processes (injection molding, overmolding, extrusion, sheet metal, soft goods) and DFM principles.

  • Experience partnering directly with engineering and operations teams to take products from concept to production.

  • Demonstrated ability to mentor peers and elevate collaboration standards, even without formal management responsibility.

  • Comfort working independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous, remote environment as a contractor embedded with a small design team, including periodic travel as needed.

Our Benefits (there are more but here are some highlights):

  • Competitive salary & equity compensation for full-time roles

  • Unlimited PTO, company holidays, and quarterly mental health days

  • Comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental & vision, and parental leave

  • 401k benefits with employer matching contribution

We are committed to building a workforce that reflects diverse perspectives and prioritizes ethics, wellness, and a strong sense of belonging. If you’re excited about this role, we encourage you to apply—even if you’re not sure if your background or experience is a perfect match.
