Product Designer, AI (0 to 1)

Gitwit•Tulsa, OK

29d•$140,000 - $170,000•Onsite

About The Position

Gitwit is hiring a senior Product Designer to lead product experience for new AI companies in its venture studio and establish the studio’s design quality standard. The designer will lead zero-to-one product design, from early concepts through prototypes, first launch, user learning, and iteration, taking ownership of the product experience for one or two ventures each year. The role involves making product decisions amid ambiguity, getting close to users, testing assumptions, and translating early signals into improved product experiences. The designer will work closely with discovery, product strategy, research, engineering, brand, and venture leadership. They will develop polished, build-ready products—including design systems, flows, resolved states and edge cases, and engineering specifications—and make clean handoffs to founding teams when ventures are ready to move forward. Work is hands-on and collaborative, with rapid prototyping and close engineer collaboration. A central focus is designing AI-native workflows that account for variable outputs, uncertainty, errors, human review and approval, trust, and fallback paths. The role also helps the studio capture and share lessons from AI product design so future ventures can build on what has been learned. This is a full-time, in-person role based in Tulsa or Bentonville; it is not remote, though occasional work from home is supported.

Requirements

At least 5 years of hands-on product design experience.
Experience taking products from zero to one, from ambiguous early concepts through launch for real businesses.
A portfolio or website demonstrating relevant work.
Strong command of typography, layout, hierarchy, color, interaction, and product finish.
Strong product judgment under uncertainty, including the ability to compare directions, make a decision, and identify what evidence could disprove it.
Ability to design AI-native interactions beyond conventional forms, dashboards, and deterministic flows, considering uncertainty, trust, human judgment, and AI failures.
Experience translating interviews, observations, or usage signals into changes in product direction.
Clear communication and close collaboration with engineers, strategists, researchers, and venture leaders.
Comfort working quickly with incomplete information, high trust, and direct collaboration.
Genuine curiosity about how AI is changing product design.

Responsibilities

Set and maintain the visual and interaction quality standard for the studio’s products.
Lead zero-to-one product design for new AI products, from initial concept through first launch and iteration.
Resolve interaction details, states, and edge cases so products feel complete and polished.
Design AI workflows that address variable outputs, incorrect or uncertain answers, human review, approval, fallback paths, and clear next steps.
Generate and evaluate multiple design directions, make decisions, and explain the reasoning.
Prototype quickly to help the team learn before overbuilding.
Translate user research, observations, and usage signals into product hypotheses, experiments, and design decisions.
Collaborate closely with product strategists, researchers, engineers, designers, and venture leaders to create testable products.
Develop reusable design practices and capture and share learnings about AI review, correction, approval, uncertainty, failure states, and user trust.
Create early design systems, flows, states, and specifications that enable engineers to build consistently.
Support lightweight user tests or experiments and convert early findings into prioritized design iterations.
Make clean product handoffs to founding teams when a venture is ready to move forward.
