Full Job Description

ABOUT THE ROLE A1 is building a proactive AI chat app for everyday users to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows. Unlike traditional chat-based applications, our product focuses on achieving high reliability for long-running workflows, persistent context, and real-world task completion. The system must handle multi-step reasoning, interact with external tools, and remain reliable despite non-deterministic model behavior. You will shape how users experience AI from the ground up. This is an early, high-ownership role where your design decisions will directly influence core user flows, interaction models, and product direction. You will design systems and journeys – how users discover value, interact with intelligence, and build trust in an AI-driven product.   WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING - Lead end-to-end design for one or more AI product surfaces, from early concept to production. - Design core user flows that make advanced AI capabilities feel simple, natural, and usable. - Work closely with product, engineering, and ML teams to explore problems, test ideas, and ship quickly. - Create wireframes, user flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity UI for web and mobile. - Rapidly prototype and iterate on new interaction models, especially for AI-driven experiences. - Conduct usability testing and synthesize insights to refine product direction. - Help define and evolve A1’s design system to support speed, consistency, and scalability. - Advocate for user experience while balancing product velocity and technical constraints.   WHAT YOU WILL NEED - Proven experience as a product or UX designer, with a portfolio spanning web and mobile products. - Strong proficiency in Figma and rapid prototyping tools. - Solid understanding of interaction design, layout, hierarchy, and visual systems. - Experience working closely with engineers and product partners in fast-moving environments. - Comfort designing from incomplete inputs and evolving requirements. - Ab
