About the role

About the Role

Join an early-stage AI company as a hybrid designer-engineer, owning the product experience from early concepts through production. You will shape intuitive interfaces for AI agents that help businesses manage complex operational workflows.

What You'll Do

  • Design user flows, build prototypes, ship frontend code, and refine the experience using customer feedback.

  • Own user-facing product surfaces and make complex wholesale operations feel clear, fast, and intuitive.

  • Partner with company leadership to define how users work with AI agents that take action on their behalf.

  • Explore interaction patterns for AI-assisted order, freight, and invoicing workflows.

  • Build reusable interface components and a design system.

  • Speak directly with customers to understand their workflows and validate design decisions.

What We're Looking For

  • Four to eight years of experience as a product engineer or hybrid designer-engineer, with experience launching products from zero to one at an early-stage startup.

  • A portfolio or personal website featuring original, carefully crafted UI/UX work, and the ability to explain the design decisions behind it.

  • Strong frontend fundamentals and experience independently shipping production-quality interfaces.

  • Experience with React, TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Figma, HTML/CSS, and JavaScript.

  • Experience building B2B products, working across the stack, and iterating directly with customers.

  • Strong product design judgment; experience with AI-powered product interactions, reusable components, or design systems is valuable.
