Who you are

• If you enjoy solving complex problems alongside cross-functional partners and are comfortable navigating ambiguous, technical domains (including AI, automation, and experimentation), we'd love to hear from you
• You have experience designing complex, data-intensive B2B digital products. We typically look for around 3+ years of experience, though we value the depth and quality of your work over years alone
• You take ownership of design quality across your squad and can manage priorities effectively when working across multiple features or workstreams
• You have a strong visual design foundation and care about the details that elevate work from functional to excellent
• You connect design decisions to business goals and customer needs, and can advocate for those decisions clearly with stakeholders
• You're curious about AI, whether that's using AI tools in your design workflow, designing AI-powered features, or both
• You're comfortable with ambiguity and bring structure and curiosity to problems where there isn't always a clear path forward
• You actively seek feedback on your work and thinking, and give thoughtful critique in return
• You foster inclusive collaboration: you proactively bring others in and hold space for different perspectives
• Nice to have: Experience designing advertising, monetization, or creative automation tools
• Nice to have: Background in operational tooling or designing for internal users with complex, high-volume workflows
• Nice to have: Experience contributing to or maintaining large-scale design systems

What the job involves

• Collaborate with engineers to translate backend systems, APIs, and ML-powered features into interfaces that are intuitive and performant
• Partner with PMs, engineers, data scientists, researchers, and content designers to shape product direction, advocate for user needs, and help influence your team's roadmap
• Build prototypes using real data and motion where relevant to explore technical constraints, validate interaction models, and communicate product behavior in dynamic, data-driven environments
• Work alongside researchers and data scientists to identify the right questions to answer, and use insights to deepen your team's understanding of user problems
• Support design efforts on internal tools used by operational teams, helping reduce manual processes and improve the efficiency and reliability of internal workflows
