About The Position

Valence has built the only AI native coaching platform for enterprise, offering personalized, expert, and human-like guidance and support to any leader or employee. We’re not just talking about the future of work — we’re building it now, with the most innovative Fortune 500 companies across healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and technology. Our focus is on the problems that actually decide whether AI changes how organizations operate — the ones with no playbook, no obvious answers, and no guarantee of success. If you want to be part of the small group that defines how AI transforms the future at a global scale, this is your chance. And this isn’t for everyone. We’re not looking for people who want predictability or incremental progress. We only want those who are restless at the edge of what’s possible, who get bored when things feel “done,” and who are driven to redefine what AI can mean for leaders, companies, and the world. Because at Valence, the work worth doing is the kind that redefines work itself. About the Role Valence is looking for a Product Designer to join our small, high-velocity product-design-engineering team. You'll work across the full product — from AI coaching flows to team collaboration features — shipping polished, thoughtful experiences on a weekly cadence. This isn't a role where design is handed requirements and asked to execute. You'll be embedded with product and engineering, contributing to how we think about problems, not just how we solve them visually. You're a few years into your career, have shipped real product, and are hungry to grow in an environment that will stretch you.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of product design experience with a portfolio that demonstrates strong craft and end-to-end thinking
• Experience shipping product on a small team — you're comfortable owning a feature without heavy process or specialized support
• Solid grounding in interaction design, visual design, and information architecture
• Familiarity working with and contributing to a design system
• Comfortable working in fast cycles — you can make decisions with incomplete information and iterate based on what you learn
• Proficiency in Figma

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing conversational interfaces, chat products, or AI-powered experiences
• Exposure to enterprise SaaS or B2B products
• Interest in the intersection of AI, coaching, and human behavior

Responsibilities

• Design end-to-end features across Valence's core product — coaching flows, onboarding, dashboards, and team tooling — from concept through shipped
• Contribute to and maintain our design system, ensuring consistency and craft as the product scales
• Work closely with product and engineering in weekly cycles, translating requirements into clear interaction flows and high-fidelity designs
• Participate actively in design critiques, working sessions, and paired design work with senior teammates
• Write product copy and micro-interactions that make the experience feel polished and human
• Explore how AI can be integrated into user experiences in ways that feel intuitive, not gimmicky

Benefits

• Competitive salary including base + bonuses
• Comprehensive health coverage (medical, dental, vision) from day one
• Generous PTO, company-wide R&R shutdowns, and paid parental leave
• Retirement plan support for US and global employees
• Meaningful ownership in a venture-backed company at a growth inflection point
• Financial upside that comes from scaling fast
• Top-up grants as we scale and you deliver exceptional performance — your compensation grows alongside your impact
