Senior Product Designer, AI-Native Candidate Experience

Senior

160,000 - 178,500 USD/yr

New York, NY

Quick Facts

  • Role: Senior Product Designer (AI-Native, mobile-first candidate experience)

  • Focus: Designing an end-to-end interview and evaluation experience where AI conducts the conversation

Description

You will lead the mobile-first, AI-native candidate experience for a product that conducts AI-led interviews and produces structured evaluations. The role centers on designing for non-determinism—how the system adapts what it asks, signals listening and understanding, fails gracefully, and how candidates correct and build trust. You will prototype first, including building AI-coded prototypes to align quickly, then partnering with a design technologist to productionize.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the AI-native candidate experience end to end.

  • Co-own AI behavior with engineering and data science (interview flow, adaptation, uncertainty, graceful failure, calibrated trust).

  • Design for high-volume candidates using only their own mobile device (one-handed, cellular, single sitting, under evaluation stress).

  • Build AI-coded prototypes to resolve open questions and drive alignment.

  • Set standards for acceptable AI-generated work vs. hand-crafted design.

  • Frame problems and surface risks; drive clarity while strategy is forming.

  • Establish interaction and visual standards for longevity.

  • Influence partner teams across product, engineering, and data science.

  • Recommend strongly (with data) and defend positions to senior leadership.

  • Prioritize ruthlessly and tie design work to measurable outcomes.

  • Mentor designers and raise AI fluency.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of design experience.

  • Experience carrying designs through exploration, development, and into deployment or mass production.

  • Experience developing, deploying, and managing AI products at scale.

  • Experience with prototyping and implementation.

  • Experience designing for both mobile and desktop applications.

  • Experience building complex software systems delivered to customers, or designing/architecting systems (design patterns, reliability and scaling).

  • Experience working with technical and product stakeholders to define requirements, prioritize features, and influence roadmaps.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D, option for Supplemental life), EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, and adoption/surrogacy reimbursement.

  • 401(k) matching.

  • Paid time off and parental leave.

  • Sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs).
