About the role
Overview
We are looking for a versatile, deeply technical Product Lead to take ownership of the Hive developer experience and Aden's commercial product roadmap. Because Hive is a headless framework aimed at developers, "product" here means the entire surface area of the developer journey: the CLI, the interactive Terminal User Interface (TUI), the documentation, the API surface, and the enterprise dashboards used for monitoring. You will not be writing traditional user stories for non-technical users; you will be wireframing observability dashboards for complex node-to-node communication, prioritizing MCP tool integrations, and ensuring the setup experience via quickstart.sh is completely frictionless. You will bridge the gap between open-source community feedback, enterprise B2B requirements, and our core engineering team.
Qualification
- BS or Master's degree in Graphic Design, Design, Visual Communication or equivalent experience
- 1-3 years of experience in visual design, graphic design, brand design, or related field
- You are passionate about generating concepts and communicating them in an effective way
- Gather ideas and elements to redefine Aden’s branding and bring the company’s identity to the next level
- Build a strong online presence for Aden by producing compelling graphics, videos, and digital assets
- Produce elegant and vivid materials(visuals, gifs, video, etc) for Aden’s website, product, and social media platforms
- Excellent communication skills in verbal and written English
- Experience at a start-up or agency is a plus
Qualifications
• You need to know how to create an amazing digital interface using Adobe products or equivalent
• You need to know the basics of front-end development and be able to build prototypes using Vue.js, React.js, Bootstrap, etc.
• You need to have at least 3+ years of experience designing, marketing, or selling digital products
• You need to understand some basic business logic in B2B markets.
• You need to be very detail-oriented and organized.
• You love to write and publish your ideas online.

FAQ
What does the interview process look like?
- We’ll reach out for an intro call after reviewing your resume. We may follow by scheduling an interview to walk through the portfolio. If the initial round went well, we’d give you a small project. After assessing the project, we’d be ready and make an offer.
Can I work remotely?
- Yes. We support a hybrid of remote and on-site work environments.
What’s it like working for a startup?
- Being a small nimble team is the best way to grow fast both personally and collectively as a team. We tend to debunk some of the stereotypes about working at a startup. We rarely work overtime. Our processes are pretty clear and structured. Our goal is super defined. The vision is pretty big and exciting. Our financial risk is a lot lower than a lot of established businesses as we have zero debt, fewer commitments/overheads, and grow each month.
What can I expect in terms of compensation?
- We aim to compensate competitively. Additionally, we ensure a “happy rate” and boost in pay for every milestone we achieve together.
What’s unique about this role?
- The product designer on our team solves a lot of problems, from usability issues, information architecture, and visual branding, to even engineering feasibility, our product designer detects, defines, and solves problems around our products and services. To quote the famous saying by Steve Jobs, “It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.”
About Aden
The Mission We are entering an era where software doesn't just execute code - it spends money. AI Agents are autonomous, powerful, and unpredictable. A single logic bug in a background loop can burn through a startup's runway in hours.
Aden is building the safety layer that makes agentic AI viable for the enterprise. We are the "CFO in the code" - the infrastructure that allows engineering teams to ship powerful AI features without the fear of bankruptcy-level accidents.
The Challenge We aren't building a passive analytics dashboard. We are building active, high-velocity financial infrastructure. At Aden, you will work on low-latency middleware that sits in the critical path of AI execution. Our systems need to ingest streams of trace data, calculate complex unit economics in real-time (using Materialize views), and make split-second decisions to "kill" connections before they spiral out of control.
Why Join Us?
High Stakes Engineering: You aren't centering divs. You are building the "circuit breakers" for the world's most advanced LLM applications.
Immediate Impact: Our code literally saves our customers money the second it is installed. You will see the results of your work in the "Saved Spend" column every day.
The "Picks and Shovels" of AI: While everyone else fights to build the best chatbot, we are building the essential governance layer that every AI company will eventually need to survive due diligence and enterprise procurement.
Who We Are We are a team of technical founders and builders (PhD / CS background) who value shipping over slides. We are looking for engineers who want to touch the metal, understand the intricacies of LLM tokenomics, and build the standard for AI financial governance.
