About Cavela
We’re transforming e-commerce by making it easy for brands to plug in with top-quality manufacturers around the world. Shopify made it easy for brands to sell products, but getting those products made is still painful. Join us as we build the world’s first AI product sourcing agent and usher in a new era of e-commerce — helping brands tap into the global manufacturing ecosystem and bring new products to life.
We’re a team of builders, operators, and investors from Stripe, Google, IBM, Notion, and Anduril.
We’re design-obsessed, well-funded, and have already built our core technology.

About the Role
We’re looking for a founding designer to own the experience of our sourcing platform: on the web, in the user’s pocket, and everywhere we show up. The future of interaction is conversational and multi-channel, and you’ll be the one defining what that feels like. From reimagining interfaces to setting the visual language of our brand, you’ll dictate how Cavela is seen and felt.
We're looking for someone obsessive in quality, impeccable in taste, clear in vision, and eager to build.
Responsibilities
- Interface Design: Design rich, responsive, and innovative interfaces that reimagine what web apps should feel like in an AI world.
- Cross Functional Collaboration: Work side-by-side with engineering, product, leadership, and users to translate ambitious ideas and business challenges into practical, elegant product experiences.
- Creative Direction: Own the look and feel of the brand, bringing a sharp, obsessive eye and impeccable taste to everything from interface design to our broader visual presence.
Requirements
- Experience: 3–5+ years designing web applications or product interfaces. You’ve owned meaningful surfaces in complex, evolving products.
- Technologies: Mastery of modern design tools (Figma, etc.), with strong fundamentals in interaction, layout, and systems thinking. Bonus if you’ve worked on AI-native or data-rich interfaces.
- Mindset: Detail- and design-obsessed. Fired up about spearheading next-generation UI/UX and creating “magical” user experiences. Ready to own UX and design, confront hard challenges, and thrive in a hands-on, early-stage startup environment.
