Product Designer (AI-Enabled Products)
Job Description
Human-in-the-loop touchpoints. Much of our work involves AI that takes steps on a user's behalf. You will help design the moments where a person stays in control: review steps, approval points, and clear off-ramps when something looks wrong. You will do this in close collaboration with senior design and engineering.
Within real-world constraints. Many of our products live in regulated or mission-critical settings, which means accessibility, clarity, and well-designed failure cases are part of the job from the first sketch, not a final-pass checklist.
What you'll bring (the fundamentals)
User research and facilitation. Comfort running and supporting interviews, workshops, and requirements sessions to understand real workflows, needs, and pain points.
End-to-end product and interaction design. A portfolio showing you can take concepts to refined, functional, aesthetically strong interfaces aligned to user needs and project requirements.
Figma fluency for design and clean developer handoff.
Accessibility and inclusive design as a working practice, not an afterthought.
Technical literacy. A working sense of feasibility and a willingness to partner closely with engineers so your designs are buildable.
Clear documentation and communication of interaction and interface components for handoff to our in-house development teams.
Roughly 3 to 5 years of product or UX design experience is a good fit, though we care more about the quality of your work and how you think than your exact tenure.
Nice to have (not required)
Direct experience designing AI features, data-dense tools, or complex workflows. If you have it, great. If you don't but you're clearly eager to learn it, we still want to talk.
Familiarity with designing for regulated or enterprise environments.
How you'll work
We expect you to use AI in your own practice, not just design for it. Rapid prototyping, generating and stress-testing variations, drafting copy, and speeding up research synthesis are part of how design moves here. Just as important is the judgment to tell when AI output is actually good enough to ship, which is itself a design skill we value.
How you'll grow
Mid-level designers who join us learn the part of the craft most of the industry hasn't figured out yet: designing trustworthy, usable AI products in serious environments. You will work directly alongside senior designers and engineers, your work will ship, and the path here runs toward leading AI design work as you develop. The frameworks for this kind of design are still being written, and we want people who will eventually help write them.
Why join us
Competitive compensation and benefits: salary in the range below, plus performance bonuses, medical, dental, and vision coverage, and a matching 401(k).
Work-life balance: up to three weeks of time off in your first year, plus a supportive and flexible environment.
The work itself: senior-led delivery on real, in-production systems for serious clients, in a small team where your design decisions actually ship and matter.
Mentorship and growth: direct, daily access to senior designers and engineers, on exactly the kind of AI product work that's hard to get experience in anywhere else.
Culture: a diverse, sharp, and genuinely fun team that likes pushing the edge of what's buildable. Lunchtime basketball, volleyball, or runs along the Bay are part of the deal.
