Qualtrics•Seattle, WA

7d•$199,500 - $262,000•Hybrid

About The Position

At Qualtrics, we create software the world’s best brands use to deliver exceptional experiences, build high-performing teams, and design products people love. We are the creators and stewards of the Experience Management category serving over 18K clients globally. Building a category takes grit, determination, and a disdain for convention, and most of all it requires close-knit, high-functioning teams with an unwavering dedication to serving our customers. When you join this team, you won’t just be designing interfaces or delivering on features, you’ll be building the agentic layer that powers our platform. We operate with a "builder-first" mentality where design and development converge. You’ll be empowered to move fast, take strategic risks, and solve complex AI challenges by prototyping directly in code. If you are an AI-fluent designer who wants to bridge the gap between human experience and functional code to impact 18K+ global clients, join us to move beyond static mockups and ship the future of AI-driven enterprise software.

Requirements

Demonstrated experience designing complex interfaces where AI/ML is a core feature, rather than an add-on.
Proven ability or strong potential to translate design concepts into coded prototypes (e.g., React/TypeScript) to bridge the gap between design and implementation.
History of using AI tooling or LLM-integrated workflows to accelerate design-to-development cycles and improve efficiency.
A portfolio showcasing intelligent, agentic user experiences that demonstrate systems thinking in data-heavy environments.
Experience partnering closely with engineering teams to ship features, moving beyond static deliverables to active, collaborative code contribution.

Nice To Haves

Deep fluency in using AI-powered tools to accelerate design workflows, rapidly prototyping and iterating on intelligent experiences.
Delivering coded prototypes (e.g., React/TypeScript) using our agentic design system to bring designs to life, ensuring designs are not just static, but ready for implementation and testing. If you’re new to this, we’ll help you learn and upskill.
Ability to design scalable and agentic design systems that function across complex, data-heavy AI features, prioritizing long-term usability.
Takes initiative to define the "how" in ambiguous spaces, deeply understanding the expected outcome and working independently to get it done.
Highly communicative, building trust and aligning engineering and product teams to move complex AI solutions from concept to shipping.
A relentless drive to stay ahead of the evolving AI landscape, proactively testing new technologies to push the boundaries of what our platform can achieve.

Responsibilities

Accelerate AI-driven prototyping: Leverage advanced AI tooling to rapidly iterate on intelligent experiences, reducing time from concept to high-fidelity prototype.
Bridge the gap between design and development: Deliver functional, production-ready code directly into our QDS 3.0 pipeline, allowing engineering teams to focus on complex backend integration rather than UI implementation.
Influence product strategy: Collaborate with product managers and engineers to prototype complex AI interactions, ensuring our product features provide intuitive and meaningful user value.
Champion AI-first design patterns: Proactively test and integrate new generative design technologies to push the boundaries of our platform, setting the standard for "agentic" interfaces at Qualtrics.
Drive system quality and consistency: Partner with the Core AI team to refine our agentic pipeline gates, ensuring all AI-authored code meets our strict performance, accessibility, and security standards.
