Product Designer role focused on building prototypes with AI tools and code, understanding AI system behavior (prompting, evaluation, feedback loops), and designing user experiences for AI-powered products, particularly in enterprise settings. The role emphasizes collaboration with engineers and a deep understanding of complex systems and user workflows.

What you'd actually do

  1. Build prototypes using AI tools
  2. Use tools like Claude or Cursor to test and refine ideas
  3. Understand prompting, evaluation, and model quality in practice
  4. Know how to design human in the loop systems and feedback flows
  5. Follow AI research and enjoy working with highly technical teams

Skills

Required

  • 6+ years in product design
  • Experience with AI, data, or complex systems
  • Portfolio with shipped work or working prototypes
  • Strong visual and interaction design craft
  • Work closely with engineers and help move work into production

Nice to have

  • Build prototypes using AI tools
  • Use tools like Claude or Cursor to test and refine ideas
  • Understand prompting, evaluation, and model quality in practice
  • Know how to design human in the loop systems and feedback flows
  • Follow AI research and enjoy working with highly technical teams
  • Have worked with messy data, edge cases, and real workflows
  • Think about how AI changes how teams work
  • Use these tools to strengthen the team, not just speed up your own work
  • Shape how design influences system behavior
  • Define how users give feedback, how teams measure quality, and how the system handles edge cases
  • Spend time with users to find real problems
  • Watch where workflows break, slow down, or produce poor results
  • Turn those observations into testable flows that improve outcomes
  • Worked on technical products or two sided marketplaces
  • Understand how contributors, ops, and engineers depend on each other
  • Design for the full system
  • Care about craft
  • Push the work until it feels clear, consistent, and ready for real use
