LLM usage has seen a meteoric rise in the past year, but there is still a significant gap between agentic innovation and its use in the real world. This is especially true for underserved industries like automotive and healthcare, where outdated systems persist due to barriers to entry, legacy software, and high-stakes consequences of hallucinations and failure.
Here at Toma (YC W24), we are bridging this gap by providing a customer-centric platform to deploy and monitor AI agents, even for non-technical users. We recently raised a $17M Series A from a16z and are building the future of human-AI interactions, starting in the automotive industry.
Our Team
We’re assembling a team of Avengers: engineers, product managers, former founders, athletes, and leaders from Scale AI, Uber, Braze, Microsoft, Amazon, and more. We consider everyone regardless of their backgrounds or identities. Learn more about us here. This role is in-person in our SF office, 5 days a week.
About This Role
We’re looking for a
Founding Product Designer
who can set the design vision, lead execution, and build the entire design function from scratch. This is a rare opportunity to own end-to-end product design in a fast-moving, high-impact startup.
You’ll collaborate directly with the CTO, engineers, and customers to craft a category-defining product. From Figma explorations to polished interfaces, from design systems to brand storytelling... You will set the standard for what design means at Toma.
What You Will Do
Own the product design lifecycle: research, wireframes, prototypes, high-fidelity UI, and production-ready assets. Stand up our design system in Figma and establish best practices for scale. Shape user journeys end-to-end, from first-touch onboarding to power-user workflows. Define and champion design culture, processes, and tools across the company. Collaborate cross-functionally with product and engineering to ship beautiful, intuitive features quickly. Evolve our brand identity and visual language alongside product design. Recruit and mentor future designers as the team grows.
Preferred Qualifications
4+ years of experience designing digital products (startup or high-growth company experience strongly preferred). Mastery of Figma—you move fast and know how to leverage components, auto layout, and libraries to build scalable systems. A portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end design thinking. Strong visual design craft combined with pragmatic UX instincts. Ability to operate autonomously in ambiguity and ship quickly without sacrificing quality. Passion for creating elegant user experiences in complex problem spaces. Excellent communication skills—you can tell the story of your design decisions clearly and persuasively.
Bonus Points
Experience building the design function at an early-stage startup. Interest in AI, automation, or tools that redefine how people work. Comfort collaborating with engineers on implementation details. Motion design, illustration, or branding chops.
Don’t think you meet all the qualifications? Apply anyway. We’d love to hear what excites you about us, and we may have a role that's a good fit for you.
