Job description

This is a hands on product design role at an early stage company, covering the whole path from user conversations to shipped interfaces. A strong candidate has several years of shipped product design work, a sharp eye for interface craft, and the judgment to question what should be built. Comfort with ambiguity and self direction matters as much as visual skill.

How it fits the AI era

The product helps teams spot and fix broken software experiences, so the design work sits close to debugging and observability tools. AI can speed up prototyping and surface patterns in user sessions, but deciding what is worth solving and making complex workflows feel clear stays with the designer. The role rewards people who can turn messy technical information into simple, usable interfaces.

How it builds AI experience

Working here builds familiarity with observability concepts like logs, traces, and session replays, and with designing tools for developers. A candidate can prepare by studying how debugging and monitoring products are laid out and by prototyping interfaces in code. Side projects that show complex data made understandable are worth showing.

Worth showing

• Strong UI craft
• Product judgment
• High agency
• User research comfort
