Founding Product Designer
Job details
About this role
Role overview
Shape the product experience for a developer-focused platform and studio whose engineering-led interfaces need more consistent interaction patterns and deeper refinement. As an early product design leader, you will connect user research, product strategy, design systems, and implementation to make complex workflows clearer and more effective.
Responsibilities
- Learn how the platform’s features work together and determine which interaction patterns best support each use case. - Review user recordings and speak with users to identify confusion, friction, and points where people get stuck. - Research emerging interaction patterns, developer tools, and strong product examples to inform design decisions. - Identify high-impact experience improvements across the studio and cloud product. - Partner with product colleagues to clarify requirements and address important user problems. - Build and maintain a lightweight but robust Figma design system in close collaboration with front-end engineers and Storybook implementation.
Requirements
- At least four years designing software products, or an equivalent transition from a related discipline such as brand or web design into product and UX work. - Experience creating and maintaining design systems across multiple product surfaces. - Familiarity with developer products and an understanding of the nuances of AI-agent experiences. - Strong communication and collaboration skills in a remote, partly asynchronous environment. - Ability to iterate quickly, propose practical fixes, and sometimes implement improvements directly. - Ability to work through complex constraints and produce solutions that satisfy them together.
Benefits and work setup
- Fully remote work. - Collaboration across North American and European time zones.
