Overview
We are seeking a Senior UX Designer to join a small, fast‑moving team building production‑grade internal tools powered by AI. This is a ground‑floor opportunity to define the user experience across multiple product surfaces—including dashboards, workflow automation tools, CRM systems, and AI‑powered reporting interfaces.
As the sole designer embedded within a team of senior engineers, you will own the end‑to‑end design process, establish a lightweight design system, and ensure a consistent, intuitive, and high‑quality experience across all internal tools. This role is ideal for a designer who thrives in autonomous environments, enjoys simplifying complex workflows, and is excited to shape the UX of AI‑native systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end‑to‑end design across 4–6 internal product surfaces, from research and interaction design to visual design and shipped UI
- Create and maintain a lightweight design system and shared component library to ensure consistency across tools
- Design interaction patterns for AI‑native workflows, including agent supervision, automated triage, intelligent recommendations, and real‑time reporting
- Collaborate directly with senior engineers in a pod‑based model with rapid iteration and minimal process overhead
- Translate complex, multi‑source data into streamlined, single‑screen experiences that reduce context switching
- Conduct user research and usability testing with internal stakeholders
- Rapidly prototype new concepts and iterate based on feedback
- Ensure high adoption and usability of internal tools across a 100+ person organization
Performance Expectations
Success in this role will be measured by:
- Quality, clarity, and consistency of UX across all internal tools
- Speed of iteration from concept to testable prototype
- User adoption and satisfaction metrics for launched tools
- Establishment of a reusable design system and component library
- Ability to operate independently with minimal direction
Team Structure
You will be the single design resource embedded across multiple engineering pods within a team of seven senior AI builders. The team ships quickly, collaborates closely, and relies on design leadership to ensure usability and coherence across all product surfaces.
What Makes This Role Unique
- Full creative ownership—no legacy constraints, no design bureaucracy
- High visibility and impact—your work directly shapes how 200+ people perform their daily workflows
- Cutting‑edge AI UX—opportunity to design interaction patterns for agentic systems and AI‑powered tools
- Startup‑speed execution with enterprise‑scale problems
- Portfolio‑defining work in AI‑native UX, internal tools, and complex system design
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years designing complex internal tools, enterprise SaaS platforms, or developer‑facing systems
- Strong interaction design and information architecture skills, with a portfolio demonstrating simplification of complex workflows
- Proven ability to work independently as the sole designer on an engineering‑heavy team
- Experience designing data‑dense interfaces, dashboards, or multi‑panel layouts
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience designing for AI/ML‑powered features or agentic systems
- Experience building and maintaining design systems or component libraries
- Front‑end development skills (React, TypeScript) strongly preferred; ability to implement designs is a major advantage
Candidate Disqualifiers
- Portfolios focused exclusively on consumer mobile apps
- No experience with complex internal tools or data‑heavy interfaces
- Requires extensive onboarding, direction, or design management
- Inability to work autonomously in a fast‑paced environment
