At Read AI we’re redefining how teams collaborate by bringing intelligence to every conversation. Our platform supercharges productivity across meetings, messages, and email, so work gets done faster, smarter, and with better focus. We integrate seamlessly with tools like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack, and more, helping teams stay aligned and move forward, whether they’re in the same room or across time zones.
Backed by $81 million in funding from Smash Capital, Madrona, and Goodwater Capital, Read AI is growing. If you're excited to shape the future of AI-powered collaboration and want to make an impact at a product-focused startup, we’d love to meet you.
We're hiring a Product Designer to help shape Read's enterprise experience. You'll work on complex, high-impact workflows, making them intuitive, consistent, and trustworthy for the people who depend on them.
The challenge is familiar to anyone who has designed enterprise software: how do you make a powerful, flexible product feel simple without hiding the controls and information people need?
Design intuitive experiences for configuring, managing, and using Read across organizations
Simplify complex settings, permissions, and administrative workflows
Improve information architecture, navigation, and interaction patterns across enterprise experiences
Bring strong visual and interaction craft to complex, information-dense interfaces
Make important actions, permissions, and system states easy to understand
Design thoughtful feedback, error, and recovery experiences for different user needs
Partner with Product, Engineering, and Research to turn complex requirements into intuitive solutions
Prototype, deliver, and refine high-quality experiences from concept through launch
Experience designing and shipping digital products, with a portfolio that demonstrates strong interaction and visual design craft
Ability to simplify complex workflows and information-heavy interfaces without losing important functionality
Strong information architecture skills, including organizing settings, navigation, and content around user needs
Experience designing beyond the happy path, including different user states, permissions, errors, and recovery paths
Systems thinking and an eye for consistency across related product experiences
Ability to independently own well-scoped product initiatives from exploration through implementation
Sound product judgment, including the ability to explore alternatives, explain trade-offs, and make thoughtful recommendations
Strong partnership with Product and Engineering, including comfort working through technical constraints
Experience using research, customer feedback, or product data to inform design decisions
Ability to prototype interactions so teams can evaluate how an experience works, not just how it looks
Fluency with AI-assisted design tools and curiosity about new ways to improve design quality and speed
A collaborative mindset, openness to feedback, and a desire to continually improve your craft
Experience designing B2B SaaS, enterprise, or productivity software
Experience with administrative tools, permissions, account management, or configuration workflows
Familiarity with identity management, provisioning, or enterprise security concepts
Experience working with design systems across complex products
Experience designing collaboration or multi-user experiences
Direct enterprise-software experience is not required. We care more about your ability to bring clarity, craft, and sound judgment to complex product experiences.
Design operates as a peer to Product, not a downstream service. Designers help define problems, explore solutions, make trade-offs, and own the quality of what ships.
This is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership and room to grow. You'll work closely with Product, Engineering, Research, and other designers, taking projects from early exploration through implementation. You'll have the opportunity to contribute to product direction while developing your craft and judgment alongside an experienced team. You'll help establish high-quality, consistent experiences that make Read easier to adopt and use across organizations.
