Job description

Senior Product Designer - Consumer Tech (SF Bay Area)

Our client, an early-stage consumer AI startup founded by experienced entrepreneurs (ex-Google, Twitter,), is looking for a Senior Product Designer with a deep consumer focus. This well-funded company, backed by a top-tier VC, is targeting hundreds of millions of global users with an ambitious product.

Key Requirements :

  • Consumer Design Expertise

Must have 3+ years of consumer-focused experience, with strong intuition about how consumers think and behave.

  • App & Website Product Design
  • At least 5+ years of hands-on design experience across all stages, from visual to interaction.

  • Figma Expert
  • Ability to quickly translate ideas into clickable prototypes in minutes.

  • Full Design Ownership
  • Willing to handle all aspects of design (visual, interaction, content, etc.) with the autonomy to hire for any areas outside their direct expertise.

  • Startup Environment Experience
  • Proven track record of working in ultra-fast-paced environments and collaborating with smart engineers.

  • SF Bay Area Based
  • Must be located in or near the SF Bay Area and able to be in the office (Mountain View) at least four days a week.

  • Hands-On Designer
  • Ideally at L4 - L5 level, but must be highly hands-on.

  • Ambiguity Navigator
  • Able to manage uncertainty with a positive, proactive approach.

    Nice-to-Have Skills :

  • Leadership Experience
  • Leadership skills are a bonus, though not required, as the role is initially focused on individual contributions.

  • Consumer-Facing Product Experience
  • Ideally has experience working on at least one product feature with tens of millions of global users.

  • AI Knowledge
  • Willing to dive deep into AI and learn about it.

  • Basic Coding
  • Willing to learn to use IDE / Git to commit style changes.

    Not a Fit :

  • Candidates with only enterprise or developer-focused design experience.
  • This is an exciting opportunity to shape the design of a product that aims to reach a massive global audience while being part of a tight-knit, dynamic team. If you are a hands-on designer ready to make an impact in the consumer tech space, this could be the role for you!
