You have a portfolio showing thoughtful work across layout, typography, hierarchy, composition, and interaction design. Student, personal, freelance, and professional work are all welcome. * Strong web instincts. You understand responsive design, common web patterns, and what makes an interface feel polished in the browser. * Comfort working iteratively. You enjoy trying multiple directions, responding quickly to feedback, and improving something until it feels right. * High ownership and reliability. You follow through, communicate clearly, and can be trusted with work that will ultimately reach customers. * Curiosity about AI-native design. You're excited by the idea that the designer's role is evolving from manually creating every artifact to directing, evaluating, and improving systems that generate them. * On-site availability. You're able to work from our San Francisco office. Nice to Have * Experience with Figma, including components, auto-layout, constraints, and shared styles. * Familiarity with HTML/CSS or how front-end interfaces are implemented. * Experience designing landing pages, growth experiences, or conversion-focused interfaces. * Exposure to design systems or component libraries. * Experience using tools like Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, or other generative design/coding tools as part of your workflow. ## Description This is a hands-on role for an early-career designer with exceptional visual judgment, obsessive attention to detail, and an interest in how AI is changing the way interfaces are designed and built. You'll work directly with our Agent Strategy and engineering teams to prompt, refine, QA, and ship high-quality customer experiences - moving quickly while maintaining an extremely high bar for craft., * Design through prompting. Work with AI systems to describe and iterate toward the right visual direction - from layout and hierarchy to motion, tone, and overall feel. * Refine AI-generated interfaces. Take generated concepts and turn them into polished, production-quality web experiences with precise typography, spacing, color, and visual hierarchy. * Maintain a high customer quality bar. Review experiences across devices, breakpoints, and states; catch inconsistencies early; and ensure everything we ship feels intentional and on-brand. * Translate brand systems into web experiences. Work from customer brand guidelines, existing sites, design systems, and creative direction to produce work that feels native to each brand. * Build reusable design patterns. Contribute components, tokens, references, and patterns that help our agents and team produce consistently better work. * Partner closely with Agent Strategists and engineers. Work side-by-side with the team in our San Francisco office to rapidly iterate from an idea to something live. ## Related Videos - [Fireside Chat with Kris Rasmussen, CTO at Figma](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/982-fireside-chat-with-kris-rasmussen-cto-at-figma) - [Boost Productivity with AI: Figma & Playwright MCP Workflows - Aris Markogiannakis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1768-boost-productivity-with-ai-figma-playwright-mcp-workflows-aris-markogiannakis) - [ Evaluating AI models for code comprehension](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1462-evaluating-ai-models-for-code-comprehension) - [Building a component library for modern challenges](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/650-building-a-component-library-for-modern-challenges) - [Designing the Future of Human<>Agent Collaboration](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1447-designing-the-future-of-human-agent-collaboration) - [Bridging the Gap](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/794-bridging-the-gap) ## Related Articles - [10 Essential Figma Plugins for Frontend Developers in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/262-10-essential-figma-plugins-for-frontend-developers-in-2023) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 122 - Cracks in the polyfill](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/457-dev-digest-122-cracks-in-the-polyfill) - [Dev Digest 118 - not a total recall](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/452-dev-digest-118-not-a-total-recall) - [Declarative Design and a fresh take on collaboration with developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/595-declarative-design-and-a-fresh-take-on-collaboration-with-developers)
