About The Position

Artisan is building the next generation of AI-native tools for modern go-to-market teams. We design intelligent systems that automate and accelerate revenue workflows across the entire customer lifecycle. As an early design leader, you’ll shape not only the product, but the culture, processes, and design foundations of the company. We’re operating in the messy, high-velocity reality of a Series A company: rapid iteration, fast decision-making, no bureaucratic guardrails, and enormous ownership. You will be one of the earliest design leaders and will set the bar for product excellence across the organization. We are looking for a Product Designer who can operate as a hybrid product strategist, systems thinker, prototyper, and design leader . You will work on complex, multi-layered AI workflows, define interaction models for autonomous agents, and craft intuitive experiences for GTM teams that rely on clarity, speed, and trust. This role requires deep experience designing for ambiguous problem spaces, driving cross-functional collaboration, and owning UX from discovery to final craft. You will set quality standards, influence product vision, and mentor other designers as the team scales.

Requirements

7–10+ years of UX/Product Design experience, ideally in fast-growing SaaS or AI-driven products.
Demonstrated ability to ship complex end-to-end features in ambiguous environments.
Experience designing for B2B tools, dashboards, workflow automation, or enterprise-grade software.
Expertise in prototyping (Figma, high-fidelity flows, interactive prototypes).
Strong system-design thinking: design systems, interaction patterns, and reusable frameworks.
Ability to lead discovery, research, and user validation end-to-end.
Experience influencing product strategy through UX insights.
A Strategic Designer You think in systems and flows, not just screens. You can turn messy problems into structured plans and communicate design rationale clearly to founders, engineers, and stakeholders.
A Builder at Heart You thrive in fast-moving environments with limited process and imperfect information. You operate autonomously and unblock yourself without waiting for direction.
A High-Caliber Craftsperson You care deeply about clarity, precision, and usability. You sweat the details and deliver highly polished work—even in high-speed environments.
A Cross-Functional Partner You collaborate naturally with PMs, engineers, ML researchers, and leadership. You know how to influence decisions without authority.
Comfortable with AI Product Complexity You’ve designed for workflows involving automation, decision support, or data-heavy experiences. You understand how to create trustable , transparent , and understandable AI interactions.
