This is a chance to help shape a category-defining product. On our team, craft, honesty, and real customer impact matter a lot.

I'm looking for someone who’s comfortable working across discovery and delivery — from understanding customer needs to designing clear, scalable experiences across web, desktop, and mobile.

Partner with product and engineering to create solutions that balance customer needs, business goals, and technical feasibility
Use data, research, and design judgment to improve outcomes
Contribute to consistency through patterns, components, and design system practices
Communicate decisions clearly through rationale, storytelling, and evidence
Contribute to design quality through collaboration and feedback

What We're Looking For

Strong product thinking and ability to simplify complex problems
Solid research and validation skills, with good judgment on when to use them
Experience designing complex digital products across multiple platforms, ideally desktop-first
Strong systems thinking and attention to scalability and edge cases
Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams in iterative environments
Data-informed mindset and comfort using qualitative and quantitative signals
A technical background or comfort with technically complex products is a plus
High craft standards in interaction, visual design, and prototyping
Experience in SaaS or B2B products is strongly preferred
Experience with AI-enabled features or workflows is a strong plus
Fluent in English, written and spoken

You’ll Thrive Here If You Are…

Proactive and curious, with a habit of looking beyond the obvious solution
Comfortable working in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve and learning is continuous
Thoughtful about both speed and quality, knowing when to go deep and when to keep momentum
Collaborative and low-ego, with a willingness to share work early and improve it through feedback
Motivated by solving real customer problems and creating measurable product value
Reliable in execution and confident working independently within a shared product direction
Energized by complexity and able to bring clarity to ambiguous situations

You’ll meet with the lead product designer. This conversation is about understanding your experience and what you’re looking for, as well as sharing more about our team and current challenges. Toward the end of the call, we’ll ask you to present a case study (30–45 min).
Design Task
In this live session with our Design team, you’ll collaborate on a real-world design challenge involving ambiguity, trade-offs, and complexity. We’re particularly interested in your thinking process, prioritization, and how you use AI to support your work. You’ll receive multiple customer feedback in advance, and during the session, we’ll work together. Please note that this exercise is for evaluation purposes and will not be used in production.
Review Session & Prototype w/Design team
Following the live whiteboard session, selected candidates will be invited to complete a short follow-up exercise. This includes evaluating an existing design template, improving it, and creating a quick, AI-assisted prototype within a defined timeframe and presenting it in a brief session/discussion with the Design team.

At LucidLink, AI fluency is a core professional competency. As part of our interview process, we'll explore how you currently use AI tools in your work and how you think about using them responsibly.
