Job summary

Probook, the AI Operating System for the home services industry, is hiring its first designer. You own how Probook looks, feels, and works across web app, mobile, and Chrome extension, and you ship the frontend yourself.

This role is hands-on: what you design you will build and merge. Probook today uses a dated UI; you will set the bar for a modern, fast, polished experience, starting from scratch and scaling with the product.

Qualifications

• 4–6 years of product design experience, ideally 2+ years at startups.
• A track record of merging your own frontend code to production.
• B2B or ops-heavy product background.
• Strong portfolio of shipped product work.
• Turnaround in hours, not weeks, without dropping quality.

Responsibilities

• Own UI/UX quality across all three surfaces, end to end.
• Ship production frontend changes yourself — design through merge.
• Establish Probook's visual and interaction language from scratch.
• Sit in on customer calls, watch operators work, and turn what you see into things that ship.
• Partner with engineers from spec to ship, and with the founders on product direction.
• Use Claude Code, Cursor, and similar to go from problem to multiple working flows in a day.
