Job Description

Merge is the leading provider of agentic tools and customer-facing integrations for frontier LLMs, Fortune 500 organizations, and B2B SaaS companies. Our platform offers two core products : Merge Unified, which enables businesses to add hundreds of integrations to their products with a single API, and Merge Agent Handler, which empowers AI agents with secure access to thousands of third-party tools. Merge's enterprise-grade platform handles the entire integration lifecycle, from authentication and security to monitoring and maintenance. Thousands of companies trust Merge to accelerate product development, unblock sales, reduce customer churn, and save engineering resources—allowing them to focus on their core product.

Design excellence is central at Merge — it shapes how developers adopt us, how customers evaluate us, and how we execute at speed. We're looking for a Product Design Lead who upholds that standard by bringing clarity to complex problems and raising the craft across everything we ship.

In this role, you will :

  • Own and elevate the end-to-end experience of Merge's core product.
  • Balance vision and detail — zooming out to define systems and zooming in to sweat the pixels.
  • Push for simplicity, polish, and consistency across everything we ship.
  • Be highly opinionated, while also being collaborative and adaptable with product and engineering peers.
  • Thrive in an in-office, high-energy environment where design has a seat at the leadership table.

This is a role for a designer who wants to leave fingerprints on a fast-growing product and scale design practice inside a company that holds the bar high.

What You Will Do :

  • Lead design for Merge's core platform, from concept through launch.
  • Be very opinionated, sweat the details, strive for simplicity, and relentlessly push the broader team around you to uphold an exceptionally high design standard.
  • Partner with founders, product, and engineering to translate strategy into user-centered solutions.
  • Create and maintain a design system that balances speed with consistency.
  • Conduct customer research and prototype high-fidelity experiences to uncover friction and validate ideas.
  • Push the org toward higher standards in usability, visual quality, and design process.
  • Mentor designers and influence how design integrates into Merge's broader product culture.
  • What We Are Looking For :

  • Strong portfolio demonstrating deep systems thinking, visual craft, and an ability to translate ambiguous problems into practical user-centric solutions
  • 5-7+ years of experience as a product designer, with additional involvement leading company-wide design initiatives.
  • Strong ability to articulate design decisions and communicate complex concepts clearly through compelling storytelling
  • Strong collaboration abilities with other designers, product managers, and engineers, including exposure to mentoring more junior designers
  • Expertise in Figma, UX research methods, writing product specifications, creating interactive prototypes, and conducting design reviews
  • Ability to explore multiple design solutions broadly before focusing deeply on the most promising approaches
  • Conscientious advocate for product quality and achievement of user-oriented goals
  • Compensation

  • The cash compensation range for this role is $165,000 - $190,000.
  • Actual compensation packages are based on a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, years & depth of experience, certifications. In addition to cash compensation, all employees receive an equity compensation package.
  • Benefits

  • Unlimited PTO + 10 company holidays
  • 100% covered health, vision, and dental insurance
  • 401K Plan
  • $200 one-time home office stipend
  • Free dinner when working past 7pm
  • Merge is an equal opportunity employer, and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other protected class.
