LatchBio

7d • $160,000 - $200,000

About The Position

LatchBio builds benchmarks that test whether frontier AI can perform computational biology, used by pharma and biotech companies, frontier AI organizations, and solution providers. The Product Designer will design and ship experiences researchers use to understand, run, and contribute to benchmarks. This includes internal tools for building benchmark tasks and a public-facing platform for the scientific community. The role will shape how researchers interact with AI performance data and how benchmarks and scientific launches are presented externally.

The designer will work across complex product workflows, interaction and visual design, developer and user experience, and the company website. On a small team, the role has significant control over direction and the problems to tackle. Work may include improving workflows across the platform, identifying usability and design issues, developing interaction patterns, and designing and shipping features from initial idea through production.

The role also involves designing and building company website pages and experiences for benchmark launches, product announcements, company updates, and other marketing needs. The designer will help translate technical ideas into clear, polished web experiences. Designers are expected to be hands-on in bringing work to production, using AI coding agents to implement and iterate on designs. Advanced frontend engineering experience is not required, but comfort working with code and modern tools to turn designs into working software is expected.
