We9re looking for a Product Designer with excellent craft and strong technical range, someone who can shape intuitive, elegant experiences that feel like magic while also being fluent in the AI-assisted coding and prototyping workflows that are becoming core to modern design practice.
You9re excited to own problems end-to-end in a fast, AI-native product team, working closely with our Founding Designer and the rest of product and engineering to design generative product experiences that are as functional as they are beautiful - often owning the full arc from the kernel of an idea to a working, coded prototype.
Responsibilities- Partner with Design, Product and Engineering to craft experiences that drive business impact.
- Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity visuals for new and existing features - and build functional, front-to-back prototypes in code when that9s the fastest path to a real answer.
- Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) as a core part of your design process - not an occasional accelerant, but the way you move from idea to working software.
- Push full-stack code (HTML/CSS/JS, Python or similar) confidently enough to prototype, iterate, and occasionally ship to production.
- Operate comfortably in a real dev environment: git workflows, local setup, reading PRs, and collaborating closely with engineers.
- Conduct user research and usability testing to ensure designs are user-centered and data-informed.
- Contribute to a consistent, accessible design system.
- Work from our San Francisco office at least 4 days per week, collaborating in person with design, product, and engineering.
Qualifications- Experience designing digital products (or equivalent depth of experience), ideally in startup or SaaS environments where you9ve owned significant product surfaces.
- Exceptional design taste and strong point of view on craft - a portfolio that demonstrates real UX and visual design judgment, not just polish.
- Proficiency with design tools (Figma, Claude Design, etc.)
- Excellent communication and storytelling skills - able to present design decisions clearly and succinctly.
- A growth mindset and willingness to experiment, iterate, and learn quickly.
- Demonstrated ability to write and ship full-stack code - some combination of HTML/CSS/JS and Python - even if design is your primary craft.
- Real, hands-on fluency with AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) as day-to-day tools, not novelty - you reach for them naturally to explore ideas, prototype interactions, and move faster than a traditional design-then-handoff process allows.
- Comfort operating in a dev environment (git, terminal, local builds) and reviewing/discussing code with engineers.
- Experience collaborating in agile, cross-functional teams.
