About the role

We're looking for a Product Designer to join our growing design team. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment and is excited to grow their ownership and craft across meaningful product areas. This is a hands-on role for someone who is curious, comfortable with ambiguity, and energized by building, shipping, and iterating.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end design for defined features and product areas, from problem framing through execution, launch, and iteration
• Work upstream when needed, helping define what to build and why, not just designing a solution once the problem is handed to you
• Quickly explore and design product ideas, from rough concepts and flows to high-fidelity UI and interactive prototypes
• Translate complex, AI-driven, data-heavy, or workflow-oriented problems into clear, intuitive user journeys
• Proactively identify UX issues and experience gaps, and bring concrete proposals, written or visual, to the team
• Apply excellent visual design craft (typography, layout, spacing, and color) to produce interfaces that are both beautiful and usable
• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Operations, contributing to roadmap discussions and trade-off decisions
• Participate in user research and synthesis to better understand enterprise users, real-world workflows, and operational constraints
• Use and contribute to our design system, prioritizing speed, consistency, and usability
• Actively use AI tools throughout your daily workflow, for writing, research synthesis, ideation, prototyping, and rapid iteration

Requirements

• 2-4 years of experience in UX or Product Design, ideally within B2B, enterprise SaaS, or complex workflow-driven products
• Experience contributing to end-to-end design initiatives and shipping real product
• Strong UX fundamentals and the ability to work through ambiguous problems with structure and clarity
• Strong visual judgment and taste; you know when something is good enough and when it isn't, and you can articulate why
• The ability to clearly explain and defend your design decisions to cross-functional partners, connecting them to user needs
• The ability to communicate design thinking beyond pixels; you can write a clear problem statement, annotate a flow, or put together a lightweight brief when the work calls for it
• Experience designing for multi-step processes or workflow-driven products
• Growing sense of agency: you take initiative and ask good questions

Skills

• Proficiency with modern design tools (e.g., Figma, Claude Code) and comfort working at both strategic and tactical levels
• Interest in designing AI-powered products and comfort in AI-native, fast-feedback environments
• Bonus: Experience in a startup or similarly fast-paced environment
• Bonus: Experience designing for iOS native mobile
• Bonus: Experience in travel, expense management, fintech, or adjacent enterprise platforms
• Bonus: Experience designing AI-powered or AI-assisted product experiences
• Bonus: Regular use of AI tools to support UX work
• Bonus: Some front-end literacy or comfort thinking in components and systems
