About the Role

Join an early-stage insurance technology and AI team as its first product designer. You will shape the user experience for complex claims workflows, helping operational teams work more effectively with AI-powered tools.

What You'll Do

  • Design end-to-end experiences across claims workspaces and dashboards used by operators, team leads, and executives.

  • Research user needs through discovery calls and direct observation, and use behavioral data, heat maps, and usage patterns to prioritize improvements.

  • Partner with product leadership, forward-deployed engineers, and the engineering team to translate customer problems into clear workflows and implementation-ready designs.

  • Create interaction models that help users understand AI actions, sources, reasoning, and uncertainty, and decide when to review or intervene.

  • Guide the product experience from early-stage interfaces to an enterprise-ready platform as new customers and users come on board.

  • Establish design principles and a design system, prototype with AI tools, and measure whether changes make tasks easier to complete.

What We're Looking For

  • Five to eight years of product design experience, with consistent tenures in technology companies.

  • Experience as a founding designer or as the first product design hire at an early-stage startup.

  • A portfolio demonstrating UX-first design for dense, technical software and complex workflows used regularly by operators.

  • Experience using research and product usage data to inform design decisions, and familiarity with AI coding and prototyping tools such as Claude and Lovable.

  • Insurance, claims, healthcare, or other compliance-heavy operational experience is valued, as is experience designing AI and human-in-the-loop workflows.

  • U.S. work authorization is required. Visa transfers may be considered, but new visa sponsorship is not available.
