Job description

The role covers design from user research through to shipped code, with a focus on making cloud billing and AI cost data easy to read and act on. A strong candidate has about five years of product design experience, ideally at an early stage startup, and a clean, minimal eye for detail. They are also comfortable building working features with engineers rather than handing off mockups.

How it fits the AI era

AI coding tools let a designer prototype and ship interfaces directly, so the line between design and engineering gets thinner. The product also tracks AI spend, which creates new design problems around showing usage and cost clearly. Judgment about what users need, taste, and the ability to simplify complex data stay human.

How it builds AI experience

The work involves using AI coding tools daily to prototype and build alongside engineers, which builds practical skill in AI assisted product development. Designing screens for AI cost tracking also gives close exposure to how companies spend on AI. Someone short on this can start by building small interface projects with these tools and sharing the results.

Worth showing

• Figma to shipped code
• AI coding tool fluency
• User research to insights
