- •Partner with product, data science, and engineering to translate AI capabilities into trusted, explainable human experiences.
- •Build and scale design systems for AI interaction patterns (voice, confidence levels, error recovery, transparency).
- •Coach and grow the team — helping them balance craft excellence with experimentation and speed.
- •Drive cross-functional alignment, ensuring the design voice stays consistent from early prototypes to production.
- •Create frameworks for evaluating AI experience quality — usability, emotion, trust, and value perception.
- •You’ve built or led design teams working on AI- or data-powered experiences (e.g., personalization, recommendations, chat, insights).
- •You think systemically but care deeply about detail and tone.
- •You’re a natural coach — you know how to elevate others’ craft and clarity.
- •You balance strategic thinking with the ability to dive deep into design problems.
- •You’re comfortable working with uncertainty and helping teams find structure in emerging spaces.
- •You advocate for human values in AI — fairness, clarity, empathy — not as slogans but as design principles.

The early access thing actually works. Applied to a role at 6am, recruiter told me I was one of the first 10 applicants. That never happens on other sites

Been in the industry 12 years. This is the first job board that feels like it was made by someone who actually understands what designers are looking for. Simple as that.

Somehow every job here feels hand-picked? Like someone actually looked at it before posting. Rare for job boards these days.

Left my FAANG job last year. This site helped me find a fully remote role at a smaller company with way better work-life balance. No regrets
