Part-time/Contract | Remote or in person (Montreal based)
About the Role
Acrylic Robotics is hiring a Part-Time Art Designer & Curator to select and create artwork for commercial clients like hotels, restaurants, and interior design firms. This role blends art curation with digital creation: choosing works from existing catalogs that fit a client’s brand, and using AI/digital tools to generate new pieces when needed.
About Us
Acrylic Robotics builds robots that paint like humans — powered by real artists, not just algorithms. Our work combines AI, robotics, and visual art to create gallery-quality paintings at scale, using real materials and physical brushstrokes.
We’re backed by top-tier VCs and the founders of multiple unicorns. Our collaborators span the worlds of fine art, generative AI, hospitality, interior design, and culture. We’ve been featured by Adobe at Art Basel, showcased across Seoul, SF, London, and more — and we’re just getting started.
What You’ll Do
Understand client branding and space requirements.
Select suitable, high-quality, machine-paintable artworks.
Select artists from our network whose style matches a client.
Create new images using AI and design tools when catalog options don’t fit.
Pitch and present artwork choices to clients, explaining the connection to their brand, taste or space.
Your designs then get passed to our digital art team, trained painters & artists who will work off of the image you created to make something beautiful that can be realized on canvas by our robotic technology. You need to have a key design eye, but you don’t need to be able to paint (digitally or physically) for this role, although it’s an asset.
Who You Are
Someone with a strong eye for art and design; can distinguish quality and fit.
Able to think commercially—art as part of branding and consumer experience.
Comfortable learning/using AI tools, digital editing, and design software.
Clear communicator who can explain and sell artistic choices.
Bonus: graphic design skills, proposal writing, or interior design/branding experience.
Why You Might Love Working Here
You’ll have real ownership — and the room to define a visual world from scratch
You’ll be part of a small team working on a big vision, with fast feedback loops
You’ll shape not just what we look like, but how we think, feel, and show up
You’ll work on tech that doesn’t just follow trends — it creates new categories
You’ll be surrounded by weird, ambitious people who care deeply about art and beauty
We prioritize craft, curiosity, and building something meaningful together
Why You Might Not Love It Here
Priorities shift quickly — if you need a stable roadmap or fixed structure, this might not be the place
We expect self-management and high ownership — if you need lots of direction, this likely won’t be the right fit
This is not a corporate creative role — you’ll be context-switching often and shaping systems as you go
What to Expect: Our Hiring Process
We try to keep our hiring process thoughtful, respectful, and lightweight — no long forms or endless rounds of interviews.
Here’s a rough idea of what you can expect:
Application: A short Typeform to get to know you and your work
Intro chat or video submission: A quick async video or a live 10-minute call with someone on our team
(Optional) Creative exercise or case: If helpful, we may invite you to do a quick project or brainstorm session — designed to be fun and low-lift
(Optional) Advisor chat: For some roles, you might meet a trusted advisor or external collaborator
We move on a rolling basis and tailor the process to the role and the person — our goal is to get to know you, not put you through a hiring gauntlet. And if we’re not a fit right now, we’ll always try to close the loop respectfully.
How to Apply
We’re reviewing applications on a rolling basis.
