Full Job Description
This is an exciting opportunity to partner with an elite enterprise AI consultancy and build our North American footprint from the ground floor. We are looking for someone to design 0-to-1 solutions for the world's most premium luxury, fashion, beauty, travel, and entertainment brands.

  • Location: Remote (United States).
  • Travel: Occasional travel for client sessions and team alignment.
  • Employment Type: Full-time (W-2 Staff).
  • Eligibility Requirement: Must be a US Citizen. (Sponsorship or non-citizen hiring is unavailable due to client security frameworks).
  • Reports to: Partner, North America.

Our model is product-led: engineering reusable AI agents adapted for enterprise clients. Because our clients are premium brands, visual design and interaction fluidness are core business drivers.

We need a rare Senior Product Design Engineer at the intersection of UX and AI-accelerated frontend execution. Using a high-velocity "vibe coding" workflow, you will not just draw layouts-you will fluidly manifest designs into interactive code using generative tools, focusing on high-end visual polish.

What Success Looks Like (Your First 90 Days)
  • First 3 Weeks: Own, architect, and stand up our core Design System in code.
  • First 60 Days: High-fidelity gloss-up of 4-5 existing demos to meet premium visual and brand standards.
  • First 90 Days: Conceive, code, and deploy 4-5 net-new, highly interactive demos from scratch to serve as primary commercial assets.
Who You Are
  • 0-to-1 execution mindset: You love the chaos of a blank canvas and are energized by turning abstract, ambiguous ideas into functional software overnight, rather than optimizing legacy platforms.
  • Designer first with a high bar for craft: A product designer with a strong visual foundation and an uncompromising eye for polish. You obsess over micro-interactions, flawless spacing, and fluid, frictionless animations.
  • AI-native designer who builds in code: You use AI coding assistants like Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Bolt, and Replit (paired with deep mastery of Figma and design systems) to rapidly translate concepts into working, near-production-grade prototypes.
  • Shipped AI-native features to production: You understand the unique challenges of building with LLMs-designing for non-determinism, creating delightful experiences around unpredictable outputs, and innovating UX patterns that make AI feel intuitive.
What You Will Own
  • Build & Evolve the Design System: Create reusable component libraries spanning Figma and code to establish strict platform consistency.
  • Rapid Prototyping: Use AI-assisted coding (Cursor, Claude Code, v0, Bolt) and automation tools (Dust, Zapier/Make) to turn ideas into working prototypes in days, not quarters.
  • Validate Before Production: Test concepts with real data and users to prove value before engineering commits resources.
  • Hand Off to Engineering: Deliver functional prototypes and validated learnings to the AI Engineer to re-architect, scale, and ship to production.
  • Lead Delivery: Orchestrate scope, milestones, and quality across core products and client engagements.
  • Inform Strategy: Guide the Partner on core platform direction-deciding what becomes part of the reusable foundation versus custom client work.
  • Drive Reuse & Productization: Templatize solutions across clients and feed delivery insights back into the core product.
  • Lead the Build Pod: Set priorities and unblock the AI Engineer and Product Designer through product ownership and influence.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Base Salary Range: $135,000 - $185,000 USD (Based on geographic market tier).
  • Benefits: 20 days PTO, winter closure, 11 paid holidays, Summer Fridays, 401K Match
