What you need
- Strong portfolio of shipped product work that demonstrates real design taste and craft
- Genuine UX and visual design ability, from concept through high-fidelity execution

- Fluency with AI-assisted design and development, and a real instinct for building AI-native interfaces
- Comfort operating with ambiguity and owning outcomes end to end
Nice to have

- Illustration or visual storytelling ability, able to create original graphics, diagrams, or brand-aligned artwork that elevates the product and marketing surfaces
- Experience designing for developer platforms or API-first products, and a feel for what makes technical tools intuitive to build on
What you get
