Overview

Our Senior Experience Designers craft digital experiences people love to use. They are collaborators and innovators who thrive in multidisciplinary teams - comfortable starting from a blank page and not afraid to get their hands dirty making the vision a reality.

This role is centered on building, scaling, and governing a cohesive design system for our suite of AI-powered tools - used across internal platforms and packaged as client-facing products. You'll play a key role in defining and maintaining the foundations, components, guidelines, and processes that keep our tools consistent, usable, accessible, and trustworthy as they evolve. As part of a team that includes UX, visual, and content strategists and writers, you'll help shape our approach, drive high standards, and make sure we apply systems thinking to all our work.


Responsibilities

Build, scale, and govern the AI design system
Define and evolve system-level patterns, components, and guidelines for AI interactions and behaviors. Establish shared rules and conventions so AI capabilities behave in predictable, understandable ways across workflows, teams, and use cases. Partner with design and product leads on governance and ongoing iteration, and drive system adoption through clear documentation and usage guidance.

Strengthen and multiply the design team
Play a central role within a multidisciplinary team spanning UX, Content and Visual design. Help set direction and shared expectations for system-led design work in a fast-changing AI landscape - maintaining high craft, cohesion, and quality across all outputs.

Design AI-enabled experiences
Develop shared interaction models for generative and assistive capabilities. Ensure AI features integrate cleanly into existing tools and workflows, with human-in-the-remove remo patterns embedded as a core system principle - not an afterthought.

Champion Responsible AI, Trust, and Accessibility
Embed responsible AI principles - ethics, transparency, and accessibility - into our systems from the ground up. Design thoughtful guardrails to reduce bias, misuse, and over-automation. Advocate for clarity, comprehension, and cognitive ease across all AI experiences.

Partner across teams
Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and leadership to align system decisions with technical constraints and business goals. Champion system consistency over one-off solutions, and advocate for the value of platform thinking across the organization.


Qualifications

• Mastery of visual design principles: color, typography, illustration, motion, and the details that make the difference between good and great
• Serious attention to detail - we move fast, and precision matters
• 3-5 years designing digital products, with real time spent on platform, enterprise, or systems-level work
• A robust portfolio across devices and platforms that showcases both range and craft

Strongly preferred
