  • Establish the company's visual language, design system, component library, and interaction patterns across product and brand.
  • Develop scalable design processes, documentation, and engineering handoff practices.
  • Partner closely with product and engineering leadership to influence product strategy and roadmap decisions.
  • Rapidly prototype and iterate on concepts using modern AI-assisted design and development tools.
Requirements
  • 7+ years of product design experience, including ownership of consumer-facing digital products.
  • Experience as an early or founding designer within a startup environment.
  • Demonstrated ability to balance strategic design leadership with hands-on execution.
  • Portfolio showcasing shipped products and clear ownership of end-to-end design work.
  • Advanced proficiency with Figma, including design systems and component libraries.
  • Experience incorporating AI-powered prototyping and development tools into day-to-day workflows.
  • Strong visual, interaction, and UX design skills for consumer applications.
  • Experience designing products in healthcare or other regulated industries is preferred.
