Job Description:

The Company They're building what comes after the chat interface: an AI that lives on your screen, understands your work, and handles things across your tools before you have to think about them. Not a copilot. Not a prompt box. A genuinely new interaction model that nobody has figured out yet. The company is led by a founder who spent close to a decade as the first product hire at one of the most beloved consumer products ever built. They just closed a $40M Series A with a top-tier VC. The vision is clear, the resources are there, and the hard design problems are just getting started. The Role You'll be the senior IC designer on a small, product-obsessed team, working directly alongside the Head of Design, who previously built design tools used by millions of designers and motion designers worldwide. Strong design leadership is already in place. What they need now is someone who can match that level of craft and help ship it. You'll own significant parts of the product end-to-end, with your work shipping fast and mattering immediately. What you'll own: Core interaction design for a desktop-first product at the frontier of AI and human workflow Zero-to-one thinking on new interaction patterns that don't exist anywhere yet The visual bar for a product that millions of knowledge workers could use every day A direct working relationship with founders and design leadership who genuinely care about craft What Makes Someone Right for This The designers who thrive here have a few things in common. They have taste. Not just good taste, but the kind of craft that makes other designers stop and look twice. They've shipped products people actually use and care about. They think about AI not as a feature to bolt on, but as a fundamental shift in how interfaces should work. And they want ownership, not tickets. Experience with desktop software, complex workflows, or AI-native products will make you dangerous here. A portfolio that shows depth of thinking alongside visual polish will get you in the door.
