About the Role

As a fractional Product Designer, you will work closely with the founding and engineering teams at an early-stage AI recruiting marketplace. You will shape candidate and hiring manager experiences, turning ambiguous product problems into intuitive, trustworthy flows and helping the team ship quickly.

What You'll Do

• Own design across product interfaces, candidate experiences, company dashboards, and AI interactions.

• Translate complex, multi-stakeholder needs into clear end-to-end user flows and interaction models.

• Build and evolve the product design system from an early stage.

• Conduct lightweight user research through interviews, session observation, and identifying points of friction.

• Collaborate directly with founders and engineers to shape product direction and deliver shipped work.

What We're Looking For

• At least 5 years of digital product design experience, including time as a primary or sole designer at a startup.

• Deep fluency in Figma for product design and design system work, with a portfolio showing thoughtful, clear design and shipped products.

• Experience designing end-to-end flows for products serving multiple user groups.

• Experience building or evolving design systems from scratch or at an early stage.

• Comfort working autonomously, communicating asynchronously, and conducting lightweight user research with distributed teams.

• Recruiting, HR tech, talent marketplace, AI product, conversational interface, or multi-sided platform experience is valuable.
