About the role

We are seeking a Design Engineer to join our founding team in building the future of healthcare compliance AI. You will work directly with the founders, owning entire product surfaces that customers interact with - from design concept to shipped code.

Responsibilities

  • Design and ship product features end-to-end (Figma → React/TypeScript → production).
  • Translate messy compliance workflows - audit prep, universe scrubbing, regulatory tracking - into elegant product experiences.
  • Build and maintain the design system: components, patterns, interaction standards that scale.
  • Partner directly with customers - sit in on calls, understand their pain, design from that understanding.
  • Own brand and visual identity across product, marketing site, and customer-facing materials.
  • Make smart tradeoffs between polish, speed, and shipping.

Requirements

  • Strong across design + frontend code: Figma, React, TypeScript, CSS/Tailwind.
  • Portfolio that shows both - design thinking and what actually shipped to production.
  • Hunger: High agency, a willingness to learn, and a drive to do whatever it takes.
  • Customer-obsessed: Confusing UX keeps you awake at night.
  • Comfortable with complexity: You've designed for data-heavy B2B workflows, multi-step processes, or enterprise users - not just consumer apps.
  • Intellectually humble: Low ego, high curiosity, collaborative.
  • Biased toward action: You ship, you don't wait for a spec.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in design and/or frontend development.
  • Experience with Figma, React, TypeScript, and CSS/Tailwind.
  • A portfolio demonstrating both design thinking and shipped products.
  • A strong passion for healthcare compliance and a desire to make a difference.
  • Experience working with complex, data-driven B2B workflows.

Skills

  • Strong design skills with a focus on user experience.
  • Proficiency in Figma, React, TypeScript, and CSS/Tailwind.
  • Experience with design systems and maintaining consistency across multiple platforms.
  • Ability to translate complex compliance workflows into intuitive product experiences.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary range of $150K - $210K.
  • Healthcare benefits package.
  • Flexible work schedule.
  • Opportunities for growth and advancement within the company.

Pay

  • $150K - $210K
