About the role

About the Role

Join a small team building an AI-powered recruiting product that helps candidates and companies find strong matches. As a fractional product designer, you will work directly with the founding and engineering teams to shape the product and ship useful, thoughtful experiences.

What You'll Do

  • Design end-to-end experiences across candidate journeys, company dashboards, and AI interactions.
  • Turn ambiguous product challenges into clear, intuitive user flows and interaction models.
  • Build and evolve the product design system from an early stage.
  • Conduct lightweight research through interviews and session observation, then identify and address user friction.
  • Contribute to product direction and collaborate closely with engineering in a distributed, async environment.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 5 years of digital product design experience, including work as a primary or sole designer at a startup.
  • A portfolio showcasing shipped web app product work, strong craft, clarity, and thoughtful problem-solving.
  • Deep Figma fluency, including product design and design system work.
  • Experience designing end-to-end flows for products serving multiple audiences, and building design systems from scratch or at an early stage.
  • Ability to work autonomously with minimal direction and communicate effectively with distributed teams.
  • Experience with marketplaces or platforms is valuable, as is work on AI-powered products, conversational interfaces, recruiting, HR technology, or talent marketplaces.

Compensation & Benefits

Base compensation is $100,000 to $120,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Location

Remote worldwide. The role offers a flexible fractional arrangement.
