Job summary

Handshake is seeking an experienced product designer to shape the central tasking experience for frontier AI models. You will collaborate with product, engineering, research, and operations to define visions and translate them into practical phases while mentoring teammates.

You will drive end-to-end design—from concept to production—through research, journeys, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity work, delivering impact at global scale.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of product design experience, ideally working on highly complex, interactive products.
• Strong communicator who clearly articulates design decisions, tradeoffs, and the thinking behind them to partners and leadership.
• Deep visual and interaction design expertise, with a proven track record of shipped work and measurable impact.
• Experience designing scalable systems, workflows, or platforms with many moving parts and stakeholders.
• Highly collaborative, valuing diverse perspectives and incorporating them into the design process to achieve better outcomes.
• Design-led thinker who raises the bar by embedding design thinking into day-to-day work and helping others grow.

Responsibilities

• Partner with product, engineering, data, research, and operations to build and extend the tasking experience—the central platform to shape frontier AI models.
• Develop strategic product visions and collaborate with partners to sequence them into pragmatic phases.
• Collaborate closely with Quality, Coding, RLE, and Fellow Experience teams—your work enables theirs.
• Partner with operations leaders and stay close to operators’ workflows. Run pilots, shadow users, uncover pain points, and translate insights into prioritized investments.
• Tackle complex, ambiguous human-centered problems and translate them into clear, simple solutions.
• Own design end-to-end—from concept through production—iterating quickly through research, user journeys, wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs with a strong point of view on craft.
• Raise the bar for design culture and execution through systems thinking, product reasoning, pixel-level precision, facilitation, and mentoring.
