Job Description

We’re hiring a senior-level product designer to join a high-velocity team working on an ambitious, AI-powered enterprise platform. This is not a polish-and-perfection kind of role—it’s about speed, clarity, and decisive, high-leverage design. This role is 5x days a week in the San Francisco office.

You’ll thrive here if you:

  • Move quickly and embrace ambiguity
  • Can design without perfect specs or pristine component libraries
  • Like shaping early-stage products through iterative experiments
  • Communicate clearly and make decisions with conviction

What you’ll be doing:

  • Own design for major product surfaces, with autonomy and trust
  • Translate half-formed ideas into working concepts and functional UIs
  • Collaborate tightly with engineers to ship directly in product
  • Operate as a strategic partner, not a service function

Our current state:

  • Figma is our tool, but our design system is minimal
  • Chakra UI v2 is our front-end framework
  • Production code is the source of truth—not Storybook or a polished library
  • We work fast, sometimes starting with screenshots of live product to iterate in code

Who you are:

  • 8+ years of Product Design experience
  • A fast-moving, full-stack designer who makes decisions without hand-holding
  • Assertive, pragmatic, and comfortable challenging assumptions
  • Driven by product outcomes, not polish
  • Excited to design novel patterns for AI-powered workflows
  • You’ve probably designed for enterprise or internal tools before—or are eager to learn

Not a fit if you:

  • Prefer working from pristine Figma files
  • Want a mature component system out of the gate
  • Need consensus before moving forward
  • Are looking for a slower-paced or hybrid/remote-flex setup

This is a rare chance to build at the frontier of AI, in an environment where your thinking matters as much as your execution. If you want to move fast, think deeply, and own the product design end-to-end—we’d love to talk.
