What are we looking to add to our team?
We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer who is deeply creative, visually opinionated, and energized by hard, undefined problems. This role is for a designer who thinks beyond patterns, challenges conventions, and takes pride in exceptional craft. You are bold in your ideas, brave in your execution, and uncompromising when it comes to visual quality. You thrive in ambiguity, move fast without losing taste, and believe great design should feel intentional, surprising, and deeply human.
What you’ll be doing:
- Invent the future of AI recruiting. Design precedent-setting AI and ML-driven product experiences where there is no established playbook, balancing usability, trust, and delight.
- Create bold 0→1 experiences. Explore new interaction models, visual languages, and product concepts that push beyond conventional enterprise UX.
- Design with taste and intention. Produce high-craft, polished design work across flows, surfaces, and systems with a strong point of view on visual quality.
- Rapidly iterate and refine. Generate, test, and evolve ideas quickly, moving from rough concepts to confident solutions with speed and clarity.
- Tell compelling product stories. Use visuals, prototypes, and narrative to clearly communicate the intent, emotion, and experience behind your designs.
- Make it real. Translate conceptual thinking into production-ready designs that engineers can build and users can immediately understand.
- Build and extend design systems. Contribute to scalable, well-structured design systems that enable fast iteration while maintaining a high visual bar.
- Leverage modern design tools. Work fluently in Figma, using components, variables, auto-layout, and prototyping to move efficiently from idea to execution.
- Experiment with generative AI. Use generative AI tools to explore concepts, accelerate ideation, and push creative boundaries in how products are imagined and designed.
- Stay curious and experimental. Continuously explore emerging AI capabilities, interaction paradigms, and visual trends to keep SeekOut’s products modern and distinctive.
What you’ll accomplish in your first 6–12 months:
- Deliver standout, high-impact 0→1 designs for new AI-driven recruiting and talent products.
- Raise the visual and experiential bar on the product surfaces you own.
- Ship designs that meaningfully improve clarity, trust, and delight in complex workflows.
- Demonstrate rapid iteration cycles that balance speed, exploration, and exceptional craft.
What you’ll bring to the team:
- 5+ years of experience designing and shipping high-quality product experiences in SaaS, enterprise, or AI-driven software.
- Proven success delivering 0→1 products or features in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
- Exceptional visual design skills, with a sharp eye for layout, typography, motion, and interaction detail.
- High proficiency in Figma, including advanced use of components, variables, auto-layout, prototyping, and design systems.
- Deep experience working within and extending design systems without sacrificing creativity or quality.
- Strong ability to rapidly iterate, explore multiple directions, and converge on high-confidence solutions.
- Experience using generative AI design tools as part of the creative process is a major plus.
- Comfort challenging assumptions and proposing unconventional solutions when the problem demands it.
- A deep passion for craft, aesthetics, and pushing quality beyond “good enough.”
- A portfolio that clearly demonstrates creative range, bold thinking, rapid iteration, and outstanding execution across real products.
