Senior Product Designer

About Motion

Motion is building the first end-to-end agentic work suite for everyday businesses. Unlike point solutions or bolt-on tools, Motion was built from the ground up with AI agents at the core. Our platform already powers project management, documents, sheets, calendars, meetings, knowledge, and communication — and now we’re layering in AI Employees that can autonomously execute work across all of it.

What makes us different is that our agents are natively embedded in the platform. They’re not integrations, and they’re not copilots that just suggest things — they actually complete work with full access to data, context, and workflows. In just three months, AI Employees have grown from $0 to eight-figure ARR, and we’re only getting started.

With backing from YC and Sam Altman, a $500M+ valuation, and hundreds of thousands of users, we’re well positioned to lead. Now we’re building agents that work with extreme accuracy and unlock an order-of-magnitude boost in productivity.

Motion is intense, fast, and not for everyone. We're a great place to focus, learn, and accelerate your career. If you want to work with top talent, push yourself harder than you thought possible, and help redefine how AI gets deployed in the real world, then you’ll thrive here.

About The Role

We're looking for a Product Designer who blurs the line between design and engineering — someone who doesn't just hand off specs, but owns the end result. You'll be embedded in a product vertical, working closely with the vertical owner to go from idea to shipped, beautiful, functional UI with minimal friction. You identify as a designer first. You obsess over the user experience. You don't start from technical constraints — you start from "what should this feel like?" and work backwards.

What You'll Do

• Own the design and front-end implementation of your vertical's user-facing product
• Translate product requirements into polished, high-quality UI — end to end
• Iterate quickly using AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Codex, Lovable) to bring your designs to life without bottlenecking on engineering
• Drive design decisions with a strong point of view on taste, UX, and visual quality
• Collaborate with engineers when integration is needed, knowing when to ask for help and when to just build it

What We're Looking For

• You identify primarily as a designer, but you've spent at least a year writing code — enough to have intuition for what's easy vs. hard to build
• A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional taste — not just clean layouts, but evidence that you think deeply about the user's experience
• Comfort with AI-assisted development tools; you use them naturally and creatively, not as a crutch
• High ownership: you drive your work to completion without needing to be managed closely
• You start every problem from the user experience, not from technical limitations

Really Nice to Have

• Experience using Lovable, Codex, Claude code, or similar coding platforms
• Front-end knowledge (CSS, JavaScript basics) sufficient to understand implementation tradeoffs
• Experience working in fast-moving, ambiguous startup environments

Compensation & Eligibility

• Location: North America & Canada (remote)
• Compensation: $180k-$225k base salary, plus equity compensation
