We specialize in building strong, long-term partnerships between skilled professionals and innovative companies. Our mission is to empower growth, innovation, and excellence by matching the right talent with the right opportunities.

About the Role

We’re looking for a seasoned AI Designer to shape the next generation of intelligent and conversational experiences. You’ll design how people interact with AI across global search, conversational assistance, and transactional journeys — transforming complex data and flows into simple, elegant, and human experiences.

You’ll collaborate closely with product, design system, and AI teams to bring AI-driven interactions and components to life, ensuring every experience feels cohesive, intuitive, and aligned with the brand’s tone of voice.

Key Responsibilities

• Design intuitive AI-led user experiences across chat, search, and contextual assistance.
• Translate traditional UI elements (cards, menus, forms) into AI components such as structured prompts, dynamic replies, and conversational layouts.
• Partner with UX writers and data teams to define tone, flow, and logic of conversations.
• Work closely with the Design System team to evolve it into a conversational design framework.
• Prototype and test AI-driven experiences using tools like Figma, Voiceflow, or Protopie .
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to ensure alignment between conversational and visual experiences.
• Explore opportunities for AI-led personalization and contextual recommendations.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in digital product design, UX / UI, or interaction design .
• Experience designing for AI or conversational interfaces (chatbots, search, assistants).
• Strong understanding of component-based design systems and how they extend into conversational experiences.
• Proficiency with Figma and prototyping tools (Voiceflow, Protopie, or similar).
• Knowledge of AI UX principles — prompt design, response hierarchy, and tone management.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills with cross-functional teams.
• Passion for AI-driven experience design and emerging human–AI interaction trends.

Why Join?

• This is an opportunity to define how users discover, transact, and engage with digital products through intelligent, conversational design . You’ll play a key role in shaping the foundation of an AI-first design practice , blending creativity, systems thinking, and innovation.
