• Design with a systems-thinking approach: Apply a macro-level systems-thinking approach to design, understanding the impact of individual components on the overall AI-powered experience, optimized for AI's probabilistic nature.

• Craft visually compelling & fluid interfaces: Create high-fidelity visual designs, layouts, and engaging motion/interaction designs that make complex, AI-driven information highly accessible and aesthetically pleasing.

• Bridge design and technology: Leverage deep technical understanding to write system instructions and utilize diverse prototyping methods, simulating model responses to inform design requirements and engineering approaches.

• Champion innovation & ethical design: Stay at the forefront of generative AI advancements, considering the intricate interplay of AI models, UI, user safety, and societal impact to develop responsible, user-centered solutions.

Minimum Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience designing user interfaces and shaping content/responses for complex software applications, with specific experience designing for conversational AI / LLMs.

• A robust portfolio showcasing fluency in visual, motion, and interaction design, alongside examples of content/product strategy and 0-to-1 AI-powered product builds.

• Experience designing tools, communication platforms, or product experiences specifically tailored for Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs).

• Demonstrated expertise in driving big product vision and guiding cross-functional teams (Engineering, PM, Research) through ideation, validation, and iteration.

• Strong systems thinker capable of moving seamlessly between deep technical model evaluation and high-level UX/UI design.

• Demonstrated experience thriving in a startup environment, comfortable with the ambiguity, rapid iteration, and resourcefulness required to build from the ground up.

• Excellent communication and storytelling capabilities, with the ability to articulate complex technical and design positions to leadership and cross-company teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience training, tuning, and evaluating large language models or other generative AI technologies.

• Proven experience in shepherding radical ideas that leverage AI to create truly transformative product experiences.

• Experience gathering and working with data to identify loss patterns in model output and create actionable insights.

• Experience prototyping interactive experiences using tools like Figma, ProtoPie, or Framer.

• Experience "vibe-coding" or rapidly prototyping with tools like AI Studio, Cursor, Lovable, Replit, or similar AI-assisted development environments.

• Experience with front-end development technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Swift, Jetpack Compose) and coding tools (CLIs, IDEs).

The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $178,000 USD - $265,000 + bonus + equity + benefits.
