Full-time, 60-day contract-to-hire Were looking for a product designer who wants to build not just direct. Youll be our first full-time designer and will own everything from UX strategy to high-fidelity Figma mocks. Youll be deeply hands-on, designing the core user experience of Aviarys AI voice platform and knowledge base used by financial institutions. This role is highly cross-functional. Youll collaborate closely with engineering, sales, and Client Deployment & Success, who works directly with clients and gathers real-world feedback. Together, youll help translate on-the-ground insights into intuitive, elegant product experiences. What Youll Do
Own design end-to-end : From wireframes to production-ready UI in Figma. Coordinate with engineering : Ensure designs are buildable and well-documented. QA and test releases : Help test features pre-launch and ensure designs are executed as intended. Run feedback loops : Collaborate with our Client Deployment & Success Lead to incorporate frontline feedback into design decisions.

Contribute to roadmap : Support roadmap planning with input from users and internal teams. Manage releases : Help plan and coordinate product releases with internal stakeholders. About You
Strong portfolio demonstrating UI/UX work (ideally in B2B SaaS). Proficient in Figma with a keen eye for usability, interaction, and visual design. Comfortable working in ambiguous environments with a bias toward action. Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams. Curious about how data flows in the product (you dont need to code, but should want to understand how things work). Based in or willing to relocate to Chicago/New York (hybrid role). This role may require travel 4-5 days a month to meet with clients or other team members. Nice to Have
Experience coordinating cross-functional teams and product releases. Exposure to AI tools in regulated industries like finance or insurance. Familiarity with client success workflows or collaboration with support/CS teams. Experience using tools like Notion and Linear. Understanding of how data flows through systems familiarity with database structures (e.g., SQL schemas) is a plus, even if you dont write code. Why This Role is Unique
Youll own the design of a live, revenue-generating AI product from day one. Youll be a key contributor to the product roadmap and company direction with a path to grow into product management or ownership. Youll shape the design culture and systems from scratch in a high-autonomy environment. About Aviary AI
