Product Designer - AI Aspire

We’re looking for a Product Designer who loves turning ideas into real, tangible products. You’ll take concepts from zero to one — owning the entire design process from discovery to launch. You’ll work on a variety of projects, from new AI-powered products to developer tools, collaborating closely with product and engineering to move fast, test ideas, and craft experiences that make advanced technology feel simple, intuitive, and a joy to use.

This is a full-time, hybrid role based in Mountain View, California.

Here’s what you’ll do:

• Own the full design lifecycle — from discovery and research to ideation, prototyping, visual design, delivery, and iteration.
• Partner with product and engineering teams to translate user insights and strategic goals into impactful experiences.
• Conduct user research and usability testing to identify pain points and opportunities, turning insights into actionable design solutions.
• Design elegant, responsive, and accessible user interfaces in Figma, ensuring every interaction feels seamless and intuitive.
• Work with, add to, and maintain a scalable Design System — including components, documentation, and interaction patterns — to ensure consistency and speed across platforms.
• Rapidly prototype new ideas using tools like Figma Make and v0, leveraging AI to accelerate exploration and validation.
• Collaborate with engineers to ensure design intent is implemented effectively — and, where possible, contribute to front-end prototypes using AI-assisted coding workflows.
• Continuously measure and refine design decisions based on product data, user feedback, and key success metrics.

Here are the skills you should have:

• A passion for designing products that make a real impact and solve meaningful user problems.
• 4+ years of experience designing digital products end-to-end, with a portfolio showcasing shipped work across web and mobile platforms.
• Strong skills in user research, usability testing, and turning insights into product decisions.
• Proven experience designing high-quality interfaces and managing design systems from the ground up.
• Proficiency with Figma and prototyping tools, including AI-powered solutions like Figma Make or v0. Experience and familiarity with coding is a huge plus!
• Experience collaborating closely with engineers and PMs throughout the product development lifecycle.
• Curiosity about technical implementation and comfort discussing design decisions with technical depth.
• Excellent communication skills in English and the ability to articulate design rationale to diverse stakeholders.

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience building 0→1 products or working in early-stage environments.
• Familiarity with accessibility standards and inclusive design practices.
• Understanding of front-end fundamentals (e.g., HTML, CSS, Tailwind) and the ability to prototype or code with AI tools.
• Experience in AI products, or designing for developer-focused platforms.
