Lead Product Designer, Applied AI

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Lead Product Designer, Applied AI in Australia. This role offers the opportunity to define and craft AI-native experiences that empower users to interact effectively with intelligent agents, workflows, and copilots. You will shape how AI behaves in a practical, understandable, and trustworthy way while collaborating closely with engineering and product teams. Operating in a fully remote and highly autonomous environment, you will influence the design of complex systems, tackle novel UX challenges, and establish design patterns that guide users through AI-powered interactions. This position combines strategy, hands-on execution, and thought leadership, making it ideal for a designer passionate about the intersection of AI and human-centered experiences. Accountabilities

• Lead the design strategy for Applied AI experiences from discovery to shipped products, including AI agents, workflows, and copilots.
• Provide thought leadership on AI design trends, shaping direction and best practices for AI-powered product surfaces.
• Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and ML teams to translate AI capabilities into intuitive, usable, and trustworthy user experiences.
• Prototype and test AI-powered flows, interactions, and automation systems to ensure clarity, usability, and user trust.
• Define patterns for AI-assisted actions, monitoring, error handling, and user control, establishing consistency across the product.
• Influence product decisions as a peer to Product and Engineering, offering design expertise rather than acting solely as an executor.
• Maintain high standards of visual and UX craft, ensuring polished, shippable work.

Requirements

• 6+ years of product design experience with a strong portfolio demonstrating UX and visual craft.
• Deep experience designing AI-powered tools, conversational interfaces, or automation systems.
• Hands-on use of AI-assisted prototyping tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, or similar).
• Proficiency in Figma and other high-fidelity design tools for collaborative product design.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, able to clearly articulate complex design concepts and influence teams asynchronously.
• Proven ability to work in ambiguity and solve novel UX problems without existing patterns.
• Strong attention to detail resulting in polished, user-ready designs.
• Experience integrating AI thoughtfully into design workflows and able to explain its practical applications.
• Alignment with company values and a passion for remote, autonomous, and high-impact work.

Benefits

• Fully remote work from anywhere in the world with flexible scheduling.
• Competitive salary range of USD 140,000–170,000 per year, with potential consideration for senior or lead level alignment.
• Generous equity options and annual compensation reviews.
• Paid time off with 35 days annually and paid sabbatical eligibility after 5 years.
• Comprehensive healthcare coverage or reimbursement options for employees and families.
• Parental leave for all parents.
• Home office stipend and professional learning & development budget.
