About the Role
This is a Senior/Staff Product Designer role on a small, tight-knit design team building AI-powered procurement software for industrial companies. You'll define how agentic AI capabilities surface for non-technical procurement professionals — making automation feel trustworthy, transparent, and genuinely useful. Clear, reliable design is what determines whether powerful AI features actually get adopted and deliver real value.
What You'll Do
- Define interaction patterns for agentic AI — from "the agent is working" to "here's what it found."
- Design experiences where AI and human judgment collaborate naturally, not compete.
- Produce short-horizon vision work (3–6 months) as prototypes and tangible artifacts to guide the team.
- Raise product craft and coherence as engineering velocity and feature output increase.
- Work directly in code for last-mile polish — checking out PRs and tweaking interactions before shipping.
- Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and domain experts to translate procurement complexity into usable experiences.
What We're Looking For
- 5–10+ years of product design experience with a strong portfolio of shipped work, ideally in B2B SaaS, complex workflows, or data-heavy products.
- Broad capabilities across visual design, interaction design, product thinking, and prototyping — a generalist "block shape" rather than a single-specialty T-shape.
- Ability to prototype beyond Figma — building runnable prototypes that communicate intent and real behavior.
- Comfortable working directly in code for last-mile polish (e.g., checking out PRs, tweaking interactions).
- Thoughtful, considered opinions on how AI should appear in products — with a focus on trust, transparency, and appropriate automation.
- At ease with ambiguity and capable of inventing new patterns for novel problems.
- Regular user of AI tools (e.g., generative AI assistants, AI-powered coding tools) as part of your research, ideation, and prototyping workflow.
- Bonus: experience designing for non-technical users in complex B2B domains, or prior work with agentic or autonomous AI features.
