Product Designer

Job Title: AI UX Designer

Start date: ASAP (strong potential for extension)

Candidate Requirements

• Years of Experience Required: Ideally 5-7 years

• Degrees or Certifications Required: No strict requirement; relevant design degrees (graphic, visual communication, human-centered design) are a plus but not mandatory if the portfolio is strong.

• Disqualifiers: Candidates focused on highly creative, expressive, or illustrative design (e.g., portfolios full of illustrations or iconography) are not a fit; the role is systems- and utility-focused.

• Best vs. Average: Best candidates have browser design experience and/or AI feature design experience, strong systems thinking, and can communicate their design rationale clearly. Someone who has worked on iteration in a small space would be great. Motion design experience is a bonus.

• Performance Indicators: Success is measured by project delivery within timeframes, ability to work independently, effective participation in critiques, and strong communication of design decisions.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in product/service design for the web.

• Strong interaction design skills grounded in user experience fundamentals, including accessibility and inclusive design.

• Excellent visual/UI design skills and attention to detail.

• Effective communication and presentation abilities.

• Proficiency in Figma, including use of design system tokens and components.

• Familiarity with industry AI assistants.

• Ability to adapt quickly to new workflows, feedback, and evolving project needs.

• Ability to work under constant deadline constraints.

• Comfortable working autonomously and collaboratively with other designers.

• Portfolio for a review with the design lead.

• Bachelor’s degree in design or related program. A combination of education and experience may substitute for a Bachelor's degree.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience creating and implementing motion design solutions—such as micro-interactions, transitions, sizzle reels, and animated prototypes—to enhance usability and bring enterprise features to life.
