About the role
The role
You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders in a fast, AI-cloud-agent workflow: talking to customers, framing product, prototyping, and shipping. You will own product design: set the bar, build the system. Lightsprint's users will feel your craft day to day.
Our most enthusiastic users are non-technical builders, but we're engineers building in a world previously dominated by engineers. We want UX craft and delight to become why users stay. We need someone whose taste and rigor turn that belief into the product.
What you'll do
- Talk to users constantly and form strong product opinions as a basis for UX.
- Design the multiplayer. Make working with your team feel genuinely different from working alone: presence, alignment inboxes, personalized reports, and the moments where humans and AI agents collaborate. Treat conflict and co-authorship as UX problems, not just engineering ones.
- Define agent UX. Translate complex agentic behavior (multi-step tasks, planning, code review, preview environments) into interfaces people understand, trust, and can steer.
- Make a complex, technical platform feel human. Resolve the power-vs-simplicity tension so non-technical builders feel capable and engineers feel respected, the same surfaces, both audiences.
Requirements
- You've owned design for successful products at real scale or in fast 0-to-1 environments, ideally as an early designer at a company that shipped something people actually use. 7+ years of experience.
- Expert in either Figma, Origami, FigJam or similar interface / UX design tools.
- Exceptional craft and product judgment. Strong interaction design, visual taste, workflow UX.
- Demonstrated ability to make complex things simple. You take dense, multi-step, technical workflows and design clear, focused experiences.
