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
- Deep proficiency in Figma, comfortable moving from low-fidelity exploration to high-fidelity, dev-ready designs and maintaining shared component libraries
- Solid frontend engineering skills, comfortable building production interfaces in modern React and TypeScript
- 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
- Motion design chops, comfortable using animation and micro-interactions to make an interface feel alive and guide attention, not just decorate it
- 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
- Salary range: $180,000 - $240,000
Worth weighing
- No specific mention of additional benefits or perks beyond salary
- The role requires a strong blend of design and engineering skills, which may be challenging for candidates with a purely design background
