Job description

Why Harvey

At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.

This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. We have strong product-market fit and world-class investor support. We’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.

Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you.

At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

You’ll create high-quality designs, interactions, and prototypes that transform complex problems into intuitive solutions. Working closely with engineers, AI researchers, product managers, and lawyers, you’ll incorporate AI in meaningful ways—crafting interfaces that help users understand, trust, and effectively guide AI outputs.

We’re looking for someone with strong interaction design instincts, visual design sensibility, and collaboration—someone who sweats the details, welcomes feedback, and elevates ideas through tight cross-functional teamwork.

What You'll Do

• Lead the design of end-to-end product experiences, from initial concept through polished execution.

• Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, and AI researchers to translate business objectives into user-centered designs.

• Shape and refine our design system to ensure a cohesive and scalable visual language across the product.

• Conduct user research to uncover pain points and opportunities, leveraging insights to inform design decisions.

• Develop prototypes to explore and validate new features, workflows, and interactions.

• Champion a high design bar, helping the team make thoughtful, intentional decisions at every step.

• Promote and develop best practices in designing with AI.

What You Have

• 8+ years of experience designing products in a fast-paced environment, with a portfolio that demonstrates your best work.

• Ability to tackle complex challenges and transform them into simple, intuitive experiences.

• Ability to change altitude from design details to big picture thinking, while maintaining a high pace of execution and quality bar.

• Deep understanding of design systems and a strong sense of visual and interaction design craft.

• Experience conducting user research and applying insights to design decisions.

• Excellent communication and storytelling skills to articulate design concepts and rationale.
