Product Designer
San Mateo, CAProduct DesignOnsite5+ YOE
Summary
Designs intuitive interfaces for AI infrastructure, owns end-to-end product design including research, prototyping, and design systems. Partners with engineering and PMs; requires 5+ years experience, Figma expertise, and AI curiosity.
About the role
What You'll Do
- Own design from zero to ship — research, prototyping, high-fidelity design, and iteration based on real usage.
- Make AI infrastructure intuitive — translate complex technical workflows (model deployment, inference monitoring, agent orchestration) into clear, usable interfaces.
- Build and evolve our design system — establish the visual language and component library that keeps our platform consistent as we scale.
- Partner deeply with Engineering and PM — sit at the table where product decisions are made, not downstream of them.
- Design with AI, not just for AI — use AI-powered design tools to accelerate your own workflow. We practice what we preach.
- Simplify developer experience across the platform — from onboarding to production, every touchpoint should feel cohesive and effortless.
Who You Are
- 5+ years of product design experience, ideally in developer tools, cloud platforms, infrastructure products, or complex B2B systems.
- A strong portfolio that shows you can think in systems, not just screens — we want to see how you solve hard UX problems, not just visual polish.
- Figma expert with fluency in supporting tools (FigJam, Framer, Principle, or similar).
- Startup-tested — you've owned product areas end-to-end and thrive with ambiguity.
- Genuinely curious about AI — you use LLMs, you follow the space, you have opinions about where it's going. This isn't a checkbox; it's core to the role.
- A strong communicator who can articulate design rationale to engineers, PMs, and leadership.
Even Better If You Have
- Experience designing for developer platforms, APIs, or cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure, Vercel, or similar).
- Familiarity with front-end development or design-to-code workflows.
- Exposure to agent-driven UX patterns — how humans interact with autonomous AI systems.
- An eye for turning technical constraints into design opportunities rather than limitations.
