Founding Product Designer

About the Role

You will own design end-to-end, setting the bar for taste, craft, and product quality across the product. Working as roughly two-thirds design and one-third engineering, you will lead with product intuition and ship what you design directly in code. You will take concepts from prototype to production, define and evolve the visual language across web, product, and brand surfaces, and build motion and interaction systems that feel intentional and alive. You will know when to use the design system, when to break it, and when to evolve it, and you will maintain and extend that system over time. You should be comfortable delivering the right artifact at the right time, whether that's a Figma mockup or production code built with tools like Claude Code or Codex, and you should be ready to give and receive direct, candid feedback.

Requirements

• Comfortable delivering the right artifact at the right time: from Figma mockups to production code with Claude Code, Codex, or your harness of choice
• Delivers feedback with candor and takes it without ego
• Strong design fundamentals and attention to detail: typography, layout, color, composition
• Actionable taste for interaction details: motion, timing, affordance
